Product Description
PY-60 is a novel YAP activator that promotes the expansion of epidermal keratinocytes in vitro and in vivo, targets ANXA2 to activate YAP, and activates a potent, YAP-dependent transcriptional program in multiple cell types. Chemical proteomics revealed that a relevant target of PY-60 is annexin A2 (ANXA2), a protein that binds directly to YAP on the cell membrane in response to increases in cell density. PY-60 treatment releases ANXA2 from the membrane, ultimately promoting the formation of YAP into a phosphatase-bound, non-phosphorylated, and transcriptionally active form.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
ANXA2 (Kd = 1.4 µM)
ln Vitro
PY-60 activates YAP by targeting ANXA2[1]. PY-60 is a thiazole-substituted gel that activated 293A-TEAD-LUC cells' luciferase activity at a dosage. When cells were injected at high densities (EC50= 1.5 and 1.6 μM, respectively), serum was not present. Additionally, PY-60 treatment caused the nuclear localization of YAP in response to increasing cell density and promoted the binding of TEAD and YAP proteins in cells. PY-60 activates proliferative YAP in animals to regulate cell contraction program and can induce apoptosis through proliferation[1]. PY-60 also significantly increases the levels of YAP-controlled calibrators (i.e., ANRKD1, CYR61, and CTGF) in 293A cells and other human cells (i.e., MCF10A, HEK293T, H69 levels, and HaCaT). PY-60 competes with ANXA2 for the binding of phosphoinositides by releasing the ANXA2-YAP complex from the membrane [1].
ln Vivo
Hematoxylin and eosin and anti-K14 histology staining demonstrated a considerable growth of duct cells and K14 precursors when PY-60 (10 μM) was applied topically to the skin surface of wild-type puncta C57BL/6 mice at 10 days. Because PY-60 production increases the number of epidermal cells per unit length of skin, tip thickness is approximately doubled [1].
Enzyme Assay
In vitro binding experiments [1]
Recombinant ANXA2 was generated by first subcloning a codon-optimized gBlock (IDT) encoding a C-terminally hexahistidine-tagged ANXA2 (NM_001002858) into the pET-22b expression vector. After transformation into BL21 bacteria, protein was allowed to express for 24 h at 30 °C with shaking. Recombinant ANXA2 was first purified by standard batchwise nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid-based purification according to the supplier’s recommendations (Qiagen), and then separated by sizing column using standard techniques into storage buffer (20 mM Tris, 137 mM NaCl and 10% glycerol pH 8.0). Crosslinking reactions were performed by the addition of 1 µg of recombinant ANXA2 to 100 µl of 1× PBS (250 nM ANXA2) and PY-PAP such that its final concentration was as indicated and that the final concentration of DMSO was 1% (vol/vol). Samples were incubated at 37 °C for 1 h in PCR strips and then subjected to UV-B-based crosslinking (365 nm) using a Stratalinker UV instrument for 10 min. Next, 10 µl of concentrated click reaction master mixes with rhodamine azide was added as above and reactions were incubated for 1 h at room temperature. Reactions were then separated using SDS–PAGE (100 ng of recombinant protein per well, 15-well gels, 4–12% Bis-tris BOLT gels and visualized using a ChemiDoc instrument. Parallel SDS–PAGE gels of the above reactions were silver stained using the Pierce Silver Stain Kit to confirm equal recombinant protein loading.
Cell Assay
Primary mouse keratinocytes were isolated from C57BL/6 neonatal animals at 2 days of age and then cultured on a mitomycin-C-treated 3T3 feeder layer in FAD complete medium. DMSO vehicle control or compound PY-60 (10 µM) was added to the medium during initial plating. For secondary replating assays, primary keratinocytes were passaged onto a new 3T3 cell feeder layer. After 9 days of growth, keratinocytes were fixed with paraformaldehyde and then stained with 1% rhodamine B [1].
Animal Protocol
C57BL/6 WT mice (8 weeks of age) were treated once per day (topically, on the skin) for ten consecutive days with either vehicle only (acetone) or PY-60 (10 mg ml–1). The epidermis was assessed for thickness using H&E staining. Anti-K14 and anti-K167 immunofluorescent staining were used to assess cell expansion. In all models, animals were randomly assorted into groups of equal mean body weight before topical dosing. No animals were excluded from the analysis. The investigators were not blinded during group allocation or dosing. All animal studies were perfomed in compliance with protocols approved by the Boston Children’s Hospital Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee [1].

Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*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.
