Product Description

WT-161 (WT161) is a potent, selective and orally bioavailable HDAC6 inhibitor with IC50 value of 0.40 nM. WT161 has little to no effect on global lysine acetylation, but it selectively inhibits HDAC6 and dramatically raises acetylated α-tubulin levels. In multiple myeloma (MM) cells, WT-161 causes acetylated tubulin accumulation and cytotoxicity. WT161 does not trigger the UPR, ER stress, or ER stress-mediated apoptosis on its own. In cultured MCL JeKo-1 and Z138 cells, treatment with WT-161 increases the intracellular levels of polyubiquitylated proteins, which is consistent with WT-161 mediated hyperacetylation and inhibition of hsp90 chaperone function.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
HDAC6 (IC50 = 0.4 nM); HDAC1 (IC50 = 8.35 nM); HDAC2 (IC50 = 15.4 nM); HDAC3 (IC50 = 51.6 nM); HDAC8 (IC50 = 1430 nM)
ln Vitro
WT161 has little effect on global lysine acetylation but selectively inhibits HDAC6 and dramatically increases levels of acetylated α-tubulin (Ac-α-tubulin). With IC50s ranging from 1.5 to 4.7 µM, WT161 exhibits significant toxicity in every multiple myeloma cell line tested. Combining WT161 with bortezomib causes a marked build-up of polyubiquitinated proteins as well as cell stress, which in turn causes caspase activation and apoptosis. More significantly, it has been demonstrated that bone marrow stromal cells, which have been implicated in mediating multiple myeloma cell drug resistance, and bortezomib-resistant cells both respond well to this combination treatment[1].
ln Vivo
WT161 is well tolerated at 50 mg/kg i.p., but it exhibits toxicity at 100 mg/kg i.p. WT161 and bortezomib together show a strong antitumor effect[1].
Enzyme Assay
WT161 is an oral bioavailable, potent, and selective HDAC6 inhibitor with IC50 values of 0.4 nM, 8.35 nM, and 15.4 nM for HDAC6, HDAC1, and HDAC2, respectively; it has been demonstrated to have selectivity over other HDACs that is >100-fold.
Cell Assay
WT161 (0–10 μM) is added in increasing concentrations to MM.1S cells for a 48-hour period. Using the MTT assay, cell viability is assessed[1].
Animal Protocol
Mice: The tumor xenograft mice are divided into cohorts that receive BTZ (0.5 mg/kg, i.v. ), WT161 (50 mg/kg, i.p. ), BTZ+WT161, or vehicle (control). Twice weekly, BTZ is administered, while WT161 is given for five days in a row. Estimating the tumor volume involves measuring the longest perpendicular tumor diameters with a calibre on alternate days[1].

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
