ln Vitro |
Regardless of the cells' p53 status, MA242 (0.05-5 μM; 72 hours) free base substantially suppresses the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells, with IC50s ranging from 0.1 to 0.4 μM. On the other hand, the proliferation of normal HPDE cells is minimally affected by MA242 free base (IC50=5.81 μM), suggesting that MA242 selectively affects cancer cells[1]. In all three cell lines, MA242 (0.1-0.5 μM; 24 hours) free base dramatically reduces the MDM2 and NFAT1 protein levels at low concentrations[1]. Regardless of the p53 status, MA242 free base reduces cell growth and promotes apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cell lines[1]. Without causing any host toxicity, pancreatic tumor development and metastasis are inhibited by MA242 free base either by itself or in conjunction with gemcitabine[1]. In vitro, the NFAT1-MDM2 pathway is inhibited by the free base MA242, which exhibits cytotoxicity against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells without the need for p53. MA242 exhibited specific cytotoxicity towards HCC cells, as evidenced by its IC50 values, which ranged from 0.1-0.31 μM[2].

ln Vivo |
Independent of p53, MA242 (IP; 2.5, 5, 10 mg/kg) free base inhibits the formation of orthotopic pancreatic tumors in vivo[1]. In both scenarios, the average body weights of the mice treated with vehicle and MA242 free base did not differ significantly, and at these efficacious levels, there was no discernible host toxicity[1].

Cell Viability Assay[1]
Cell Types: The human pancreatic cancer HPAC, Panc-1, AsPC-1, Mia-Paca-2 and BxPC -3 cell lines; The human pancreatic ductal epithelium (HPDE) cell line Tested Concentrations: 0.05, 0.5, and 5 μM Incubation Duration: 72 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: The IC50s are 0.14, 0.14, 0.15, 0.25, 0.40, and 5.81 μM for Panc- 1, Mia-Paca-2, AsPC-1, BxPC-3, HPAC, and HPDE cells, respectively. Western Blot Analysis[1] Cell Types: The human pancreatic cancer HPAC, Panc-1, and AsPC-1 cell lines Tested Concentrations: 0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5 μM Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: diminished the expression of MDM2 and NFAT1. |
Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Female 4-6weeks old athymic nude mice (nu/nu, 4-6 weeks) bearing AsPC-1-Luc or Panc-1-Luc tumor[1]
Doses: 2.5 or 5 mg/kg for Panc-1 tumor-bearing mice; 10 mg/kg for AsPC-1 tumor-bearing mice Route of Administration: IP; 2.5 or 5 mg/kg/d, 5 d/wk for five weeks for Panc-1 tumor-bearing mice; IP; 10 mg/kg/d, 5 d/wk for three weeks for AsPC-1 tumor-bearing mice Experimental Results: Resulted in 56.1% and 82.5% inhibition of tumor growth in nude mice bearing Panc-1 orthotopic tumors, respectively. Dramatically suppressed the growth of AsPC-1 orthotopic tumors by 89.5% (P < 0.01) compared with the tumors in control animals. Led to almost complete tumor regression in MD242-treated mice in both models. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
