Product Description

TGX-221 is a novel, potent, selective, and cell membrane permeable inhibitor of the PI3K p110β catalytic subunit with potential anticancer activity. TGX221 selectively inhibits renal cell carcinoma cells that have both VHL and SETD2 mutations and connects various pathways. In nude mice, the prostate cancer xenograft tumor is inhibited by TGX221. ccRCC with both VHL and SETD2 mutations can be inhibited specifically by TGX221. Cancer cells with PTEN and CDKN2A mutations were also the target of TGX221. Inhibiting cell motility and tumorigenesis in ccRCC cells with VHL and SETD2 mutations was another area in which TGX221 demonstrated notable selectivity. For ccRCC with VHL and SETD2 mutations, the novel inhibitor TGX221 has a high level of selectivity.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
p110β (IC50 = 8.5 nM); p110δ (IC50 = 211 nM)
ln Vitro
The activity of TGX-221 against different isoforms is measured in an in vitro PI3K assay using multiple preparations of recombinant p85/p110. With an IC50 of 211 nM, TGX-221 exhibits slow potency to p110. Additionally, TGX-221 partially inhibits the phosphorylation of Ser473 of PKB that insulin causes in J774.2 macrophage cells. [1] A platelet-ECC interaction, platelet aggregation, and platelet-granulocyte binding model using extracorporeal circulation (ECC) is inhibited by TGX-221.[2] A recent study demonstrates that PC3 cells exhibit inhibition of proliferation following treatment with TGX-221 (0.2, 2, and 20 μM), along with a notable decrease in the activity of the p110β PI3K isoform. [3]
ln Vivo
In a mouse model, integrated blood flow is improved over 30 minutes by TGX-221 at doses 1 + 1 (49%) and 3 + 3 (88%) as an anti-thrombotic agent. In addition, TGX-221 doses of 3 + 3 (median 1560) and 1 + 1 (1305) cause an increase in tail bleeding time(BT) (sec), and all TGX-221 groups experience an increase in mean renal BT (sec).[4]
Enzyme Assay
IC50 values are measured using a standard lipid kinase activity with PI as a substrate. (i)100 μM cold ATP is used instead of 10 μM, (ii) 1% DMSO is used, and (iii) [γ-33P]ATP is used instead of [γ-32P]ATP. A phosphorimager screen is used to quantify the TLC plates. The reported IC50 values were calculated using non-linear regression analysis based on at least three independent experiments that were carried out repeatedly using different recombinant protein preparations.
Cell Assay
Cells are plated in triplicate in 96-well culture plates and allowed to attach for the duration of the incubation period in order to measure cell proliferation. A total of 24, 48, and 72 hours are spent incubating the cells with TGX-221. A crystal violet staining-based colorimetric assay is used to quantify cells at predetermined time intervals. In a nutshell, 100 μl of 2.5% glutaraldehyde solution is added, and 30 minutes are spent incubating the cells at room temperature. Plates are immersed in PBS solution three times to wash them. Prior to binding dye solubilization in 100 μL of 10% acetic acid, plates are air-dried and stained by adding 100 L of 0.1% solution of crystal violet dissolved in deionized water and incubating for 20 minutes at room temperature. Excess dye is removed by extensive washing with deionized water. A microplate reader operating at 570 nm is used to directly measure the optical density of dye extracts in plates.
Animal Protocol
Rats are randomly assigned to treatment groups that contain the drug wortmannin (an irreversible non-specific PI3K inhibitor), the vehicle propylene glycol (0.25 mL/kg), LY294002 (2-(4-morpholinyl)-8-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one; a reversible non-specific PI3K inhibitor), and IC87114 (2-[(6-aminopurin- 9-yPI3K p110 antagonist 5-methyl-3-(2-methylphenyl)quinazolin-4-one (2.5 mg/kg) and the selective PI3K p110β antagonist TGX221 (2.5 mg/kg). In the tail bleeding experiments, rats are randomLy assigned to drug treatment groups consisting of LY294002 (10 mg/kg), IC87114 (2.5 mg/kg), wortmannin (5 mg/kg), TGX221 (2.5 or 25 mg/kg), heparin (100 U/kg), aspirin (2× 200 mg/kg p.o.)± heparin (100 U/kg), and aspirin (2× 200 mg/kg p.o.) combined with heparin (100 U/kg) and TGX221 (2.5 mg/kg). All medications—aside from aspirin—are given as a slow (over ≈45-60 s) intravenous bolus into the jugular vein. Two oral doses of aspirin (200 mg/kg suspended in 15% gum arabic in water) are given, the first 24 hours before the experiment and the second one hour before it begins.

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
