Product Description

Y15 (also known as FAK inhibitor Y15 and FAK Inhibitor 14) is a novel, potent, specific and direct inhibitor of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) which blocks phosphorylation of Y397 with an IC50 value of about 1 μM. In thyroid cancer cell lines, Y15 reduces viability, clonogenicity, and cell attachment while working in concert with targeted therapies. Y15 has been demonstrated to slow the growth of cancer both in vivo and in vitro. Y15 prevents tumor growth, lowers the viability of cancer cells, and inhibits its autophosphorylation activity.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
FAK
ln Vitro
Y15 treatment in vitro results in decreased cell viability, increased detachment, and increased apoptosis in colon cancer cells, breast cancer cells, and melanoma. Y15 dose-dependently inhibits the expression of total FAK and pY397 in TPC1, BCPAP, K1, and TT cell lines. All cell lines of thyroid cancer experience effective dose-dependent detachment. All medullary and papillary thyroid cancer cell lines exhibit an increase in necrosis, and all of them show a dose-dependent decrease in colony formation when exposed to Y15[1]. Y15 does not target homologous Pyk-2, c-Src, c-RAF, EGFR, IGFR, PDGFR, PI3K, VEGFR-3, and c-Met [3].
ln Vivo
Y15 inhibits the growth of neuroblastoma, pancreatic, and breast tumors in vivo[2]. According to the pharmacokinetics study conducted on mice, Y15 is absorbed very quickly in these animals, with maximum plasma concentration being reached in 4.8 minutes after intraperitoneal administration at a dose of 30 mg/kg. With half-lives of 6.9 and 11.6 minutes, respectively, Y15 metabolizes quickly in mouse and human liver microsomes. Y15 has a maximum tolerated dose of 200 mg/kg for single-dose oral administration and a maximum tolerated dose of 100 mg/kg for multiple oral administration during a 7-day study. At 30 mg/kg by IP during the 28-day study and 100 mg/kg by PO during the 7-day study, Y15 does not result in any mortality or statistically significant changes in body weight. In various mouse organs, at 30 mg/kg by IP over 28 days and at 100 mg/kg dose by PO over 7 days, there are no clinical, chemical, hematological, or histopathological changes[3].
Enzyme Assay
A kinase buffer containing 10 μCi of [γ-32P]-ATP A kinase buffer containing 10 μCi of [γ-32P]-ATP is incubated with 0.1 μg of purified FAK protein and 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnCl2, 0.1 mM Na3VO4. After the kinase reaction has been running for five minutes at room temperature, 2× Laemmli buffer is added to halt it. Proteins are separated using a Ready SDS-10% PAGE gel, and autoradiography is used to show the phosphorylated enolase.
Cell Assay
Ten thousand cells per well, in 100 μL of medium containing 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin, are seeded onto 96-well dishes. After the inhibitor treatment for twenty-four hours, each well receives 20 μL of Cell Titer 96 Aqueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay. At 490 nm, the plate is read following a two-hour reagent incubation period.
Animal Protocol
Mice: Female, naked mice six weeks of age are employed. Athalic nude mice are given a subcutaneous injection of 5×106 Panc si5-IGF-1R cells, which have been mixed with matrigel, in their flank on day zero. By day seven, the animals are split into two groups at random. 30 mg/kg of Y15 was administered to one group (n = 5), while PBS was given to the other group (n = 5). Using 5×106 Panc si-ctrl cells combined with matrigel, subcutaneous injections are made into the flanks of naked mice to create Panc si-ctrl xenografts. On day 7, these animals are also split into two groups at random; five animals each group received TAE226 (30 mg/kg), while the other five animals received PBS as a control. Intraperitoneal injections of 0.1 mL in total volume are used to administer the medications and PBS. Beginning on day 10, tumor sizes are measured every three or four days in terms of length (mm) and width (mm). The formula to calculate the volume of a tumor is volume (cm3) = 1/2×length (cm)×width (cm)2.

*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.

  • 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)
