BMS-5, also known as LIMKI-3, is an analog of BMS-3 and potent inhibitor of the LIM kinase (LIMK) with IC50 values of 7 and 8 nM for LIMK1 and LIMK2 respectively. In Nf2ΔEx2mouse Schwann cells (MSCs), BMS-5 inhibits cofilin-Ser3 phosphorylation in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of approximately 2 µM. Specific inhibitors (BMS-5) inhibiting LIMK1 led to reduced actin polymerization during capacitation and a sharp decline in the fraction of sperm undergoing acrosomal exocytosis. Thus, we were able to show that mouse sperm contain and function as the master regulators of actin dynamics in somatic cells for the first time. We have put forth a working model that explains how LIMK1 and Cofilin regulate acrosomal exocytosis in mouse sperm by combining the findings of this investigation with additional findings from the literature.

ln Vitro |
BMS-5 (LIMKi 3) inhibits the phosphorylation of cofilin-Ser3 in Nf2ΔEx2 mouse Schwann cells (MSCs) in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of approximately 2 µM. At equivalent BMS-5 concentrations, BMS-5 (LIMKi 3) does not significantly reduce the viability of control Nf2flox2/flox2 MSCs, but it does reduce the viability of Nf2ΔEx2 MSCs in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of 3.9 µM. Nf2ΔEx2 MSC viability at 10 µM BMS-5 is 40%, while controls have viability of 83%[2].
|
ln Vivo |
BMS-5 (LIMKi 3) (20 or 200 μM/side) is immediately administered bilaterally to rats' hippocampal regions following contextual fear conditioning training. 48 hours after fear conditioning, rats are tested for memory consolidation. According to post hoc analysis, the 200 μM BMS-5 group exhibits lower freezing levels than the 20 μM and vehicle groups (P<0.01)[3].

Enzyme Assay |
The Bac-to-Bac system is used to express the human LIMK1 and LIMK2 protein kinase domains as glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins in Sf9 cells. By incorporating radioactive phosphate into biotinylated full-length human destrin, compounds 1 through 6 (such as BMS-5) are tested for their ability to inhibit the activity of the protein kinases LIMK1 and LIMK2. In 25 mM HEPES, 100 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnCl2, 1 μM total ATP, 83 μg/mL biotinylated destrin, 167 ng/mL glutathione S-transferase-LIMK1, or 835 ng/mL glutathione S-transferase-LIMK2 are the concentration series of the compound reactions. The reactions are conducted in a total volume of 60 μL at room temperature for 30 min (LIMK1) or 60 min (LIMK2). The precipitates are collected onto GF/C unifilter plates after the reactions are stopped by adding 140 μL of 20% TCA/100 mM sodium pyrophosphate. Following the addition of 35 μL of Microscint scintillation fluid, the radioactivity incorporated is measured using a TopCount[1].

Cell Assay |
The asymmetry of cell membranes is measured. Nf2ΔEx2 MSCs are plated in a 6-well format and incubated for 24 hours in a 2 µM BMS-5 or DMSO vehicle. Harvested cells are analyzed. Using flow cytometry, the Violet ratiometric assay is used to assess plasma membrane asymmetry[2].
|
Animal Protocol |
Rats: There are male Wistar rats (290-350 g, 2-3 months of age) that are used. In a vehicle solution (1% DMSO in sterile isotonic saline), BMS-5 is prepared. When infusing, a 30-gauge infusion needle is inserted into a guide cannula and aimed at the pyramidal cell layer of CA1 in the dorsal hippocampus, with the tip of the needle extending 1.0 mm past the end of the guide cannula. 90 seconds is allotted for bilateral infusion of 1 μL of BMS-5 (20 and 200 μM) or vehicle (DMSO 1%). Based on in vitro research and its IC50 value, BMS-5 doses are determined.

*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.
