Product Description

VLX1570 is a competitive inhibitor of the 19S proteasome-specific DUB (deubiquitylating enzymes) activity with IC50 ranging from 4.2 uM to 8.6 uM. VLX1570 preferentially inhibits proteasomal DUB activity while not inhibiting the activities of a panel of non-proteasomal DUBs. VLX1570 binds to and inhibits the activity of ubiquitin-specific protease-14 (USP14) in vitro ipon administration, with comparatively weaker inhibitory activity towards UCHL5 (ubiquitin-C-terminal hydrolase-5). This blocks the ubiquitin proteasome degradation pathway, prevents the degradation of defective proteins, and leads to an accumulation of poly-ubiquitylated proteins, which induces the unfolded protein response (UPR) and results in both the induction of tumor cell apoptosis and the inhibition of tumor cell growth. Therefore, VLX1570 has apoptosis-inducing ability and anticancer activities.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Deubiquitinase(IC50= appr 10 μM)
ln Vitro
USP14 and UCHL5 activity of 19S regulatory particles are inhibited by VLX1570, with USP14 being more strongly inhibited. In KMS-11 myeloma cells, VLX1570 (1 μM) exhibits inhibitory activity against USP14. VLX1570 on HCT116 cells shows an IC50 of 0.58 μM[1].Using two distinct sources of recombinant protein, VLX1570 binds to recombinant USP14 with a Kd of 1.5–18 μM; in contrast, recombinant UCHL5 has a higher Kd (14–18 μM) than recombinant USP14. With IC50s of 43 ± 2 nM, 74 ± 2 nM, 126 ± 3 nM, and 191 ± 1 nM for KMS-11, RPMI8226, OPM-2, and OPM-2-BZR cells, respectively, VLX1570 exhibits strong antiproliferative activities on multiple myeloma cells[2]. BCWM.1 cell viability is suppressed by VLX1570, with an EC50 of 20.22 nM. In all Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) cell lines tested, including BCWM.1/IR (IR) and BCWM.1/BR (BR) subclones, VLX1570 (100, 250, and 500 nM) dose-dependently induces significant apoptosis by 12 hours. In WM cells, VLX1570 (100, 250, and 500 nM) also damages the mitochondria and the ER stress machinery. In WM cells, VLX1570 (250 nM) downregulates the expression of CXCR4 and the end effectors of BCR-signalosomes[3].
ln Vivo
VLX1570 (3 mg/kg) dramatically reduces the growth of tumors in mice with multiple myeloma cells (KMS-11)[2]. In Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM)-bearing mice, VLX1570 (4.4 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly suppresses tumor growth without causing apparent weight loss or other signs of systemic toxicity[3].
Enzyme Assay
Before adding ubirhodamine, 26S proteasome preparations (1 nM) are pretreated for 2 min in assay buffer (25 mM Tris, 5 mM MgCl2, 10% glycerol, 0.05 mg/mL BSA, 2 mM ATP, and 1 mM DTT) with DMSO, VLX1570, or b-AP15. Using a TECAN infinite 200 instrument, fluorescence is measured at 37°C using Ex/Em = 490 nm/520 nm. Data is read every 10 seconds for 30 minutes. Cell pellets from control or treated cells are lysed with a buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 250 mM sucrose, 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM ATP, 1 mM DTT) on ice for 30 minutes in order to prepare them for UbVS labeling of KMS 11 cells. The debris is then removed by centrifugation. 1 μM UbVS is applied to 25 μg of protein and left for 30 minutes at 37°C. Samples are separated using SDS-PAGE and then immunoblotted. Purified 19S proteasomes (50 nM) are pretreated for 10 min at room temperature with DMSO, VLX1570, or b-AP15 (50 μM). After that, they are labeled with 1 μM HA-UbVS for 30 min at 37°C and then subjected to immunoblotting[1].
Cell Assay
The MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay is used to measure cell viability. Cells are suspended at 5 × 10^5 cells/mL for the MTT assay. 100 μL aliquots are then put into 96-well microtiter plates and exposed to drugs, with DMSO serving as the control. 10μL of a stock solution containing 5 mg/mL MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) is added to each well after the incubations are complete, and the plates are then incubated for 4 hours at 37°C. Overnight at 37°C, 100μL of a 10% SDS/10 mM HCl solution is used to dissolve the formazan crystals.In certain experiments, cell viability is assessed using the acid phosphatase method49 because VLX1570 affects OXPHOS and mitochondrial activity affects MTT assays. Cells are lysed in 100μL of 0.1 M sodium acetate, 0,1% Triton X-100, and p-nitrophenylphosphate after being washed twice with PBS. They are then incubated for 90 minutes at 37°C. After the incubation period, 10μL of NaOH is added to each well, and the value of A405 is obtained [2].
Animal Protocol
An animal experiment is carried out with 7 participants per group and 80% power at the 5% significance level to identify a 1800 mm^3 mean difference between the 2 groups. With a sample size of 7 per group, 80% power at the 5% significance level is computed to detect a 450% difference in means between the 2 groups for the percentage change in IgM from baseline. Subcutaneous implants of 1× 10^6 luciferase-labeled RPCI-WM1 cells (Luc-RPCI-WM1) are made in 14 female NOD/SCID mice (6-8 weeks old). The cells are left to grow until an IVIS imaging signal (Day 20) is seen. On day 21, mice are randomly assigned to two groups (n=7), one of which receives an intraperitoneal injection of VLX1570 at a dose of 4.4 mg/kg and the other a vehicle (cremaphor+PEG+Tween). The group assignment is not hidden from the investigator. For 22 days, each of the two groups receives treatment with a vehicle or a VLX1570 on alternate days. Every three to four days, the tumors' sizes are measured with calipers, and their volumes are computed using the formula (width)^2 × length/2. The Xenogen imaging system is used for bioluminescent tumor imaging on Days 0, 20, 30, 36, and 43 following tumor implantationOn the same days, mice's blood is drawn by submandibular venous puncture, and the sera are then separated so that human IgM levels can be measured using ELISA. Mice are killed on Day 44, and the ultimate tumor volume in the treatment and control groups is measured. A digital camera, Canon D40, was used to capture all of the images. No particular standards for inclusion or exclusion are applied because all of the mice developed tumors and were thus included in the investigation[3].
