Product Description

BX912 (BX-912) is a novel, potent and specific inhibitor of PDK-1 (phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1) inhibitor with potential antitumor activity. In cell-free assays, it exhibits selectivity for PDK1 over PKA and PKC of 9 and 105 folds, respectively, and inhibits PDK-1 with an IC50 of 12 nM. By specifically targeting the PDK1/Akt signaling pathway, it demonstrated strong antiproliferative activity in vitro. This pathway is a promising target for anticancer medications because it is essential for the growth, survival, and angiogenesis of cancer cells.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
PDK-1 (IC50 = 2 nM); PKA (IC50 = 110 nM); KDR (IC50 = 410 nM); CDK2/CyclinE (IC50 = 650 nM); Chk1 (IC50 = 830 nM)
ln Vitro
BX912 prevents ChcK1, PKA, c-kit, and KDR with IC50 of 0.83, 0.11, 0.85, and 0.41 μM, resepectively. BX912 inhibits PDK1/Akt signaling in tumor cells and either induces apoptosis or suppresses the anchorage-dependent growth of several tumor cell lines, including PC-3 cells, in culture. The PDK1/Akt signaling pathway's role in cell survival is supported by the fact that a number of cancer cell lines (including the MDA-468 breast cancer cell line) with elevated Akt activity are >30-fold more sensitive to growth inhibition by PDK1 inhibitor BX912 in soft agar than on tissue culture plastic, which is crucial for unattached cells in particular. In a direct kinase assay format, BX912 effectively inhibits PDK1 enzyme activity, but it is unable to inhibit preactivated AKT2 activity (IC50 > 10 μM). BX-912 is therefore a PDK1 direct inhibitor. BX912 may bind to the ATP-binding pocket of PDK1 because it inhibits the enzyme's ability to use its substrate, ATP, in a competitive manner. The aminopyrimidine backbone of BX912 adopts a similar orientation in the active site of PDK1. BX912 promotes a pronounced increase in the population of MDA-468 cells with 4 N DNA content, indicative of a block at the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. BX912 also potently inhibits the growth of HCT-116 cells in soft agar, showing a 96% inhibitory effect at a dose of 1 μM. BX912 potently inhibits the growth of PC-3 cells in soft agar, displaying IC50 of 0.32 μM. [1]

Enzyme Assay
AKT2 is activated by PDK1 and PtdIns-3,4-P2 in a PDK1 and coupled assay format. For the coupled assay, the final assay mixture (60 μL) contained: 15 mM MOPS, pH 7.2, 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, 18 mM β-glycerol phosphate, 0.7 mM dithiothreitol, 3 mM EGTA, 10 mM MgOAc, 7.5 μM ATP, 0.2 μCi of [γ- 33P]ATP, 7.5 μM biotinylated peptide substrate (biotin-ARRRDGGGAQPFRPRAATF), 0.5 μL of PtdIns-3,4-P2-containing phospholipid vesicles, 60 pg of purified recombinant human PDK1, and 172 ng of purified recombinant human AKT2. The biotin-labeled peptide is captured from 10 L of the assay mixture on streptavidin-coated SPA beads after incubating for 2 hours at room temperature. Product formation is then measured by scintillation proximity in a Wallac MicroBeta counter. The amount of PDK1 and inactive AKT2 added, along with the time of incubation, determine the amount of product that forms. PDK1 is added at suboptimal levels so that the assay could sensitively detect inhibitors of AKT2 activation as well as direct inhibitor BX912 of PDK1 or AKT2. To measure PDK1 activity directly, the final assay mixture (60 μL) contained 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1% β-mercaptoethanol, 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, 10 mM MgOAc, 10 μM ATP, 0.2 μCi of [γ-33P]ATP, 7.5 μM substrate peptide (H2N-ARRRGVTTKTFCGT), and 60 ng of purified recombinant human PDK1. After 4 hours at room temperature, 25 mM EDTA is added, and some of the reaction mixture is spotted on P81 phosphocellulose paper. Three times in 0.75% phosphoric acid and once in acetone are used to wash the filter paper. A phosphorimager is used to measure the labeled peptide that is bound to the filter after drying.
Cell Assay
Cells such as MDA-468, MDA-453 are seeded at a low density (1.5-3 × 103 cells/well, 0.1 mL/well, 96-well plates) and are incubated overnight. BX912 treatments are made by adding 10 μL/well of the compound in 1% dimethyl sulfoxide and growth medium (final concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide, 0.1%), followed by brief shaking. The metabolic dye WST-1 is added to treated cells after 72 hours of incubation to determine viability. The net signal is calculated by subtracting a no cell, or zero time cell, background from the WST-1 signal, which is read at 450 nm on a plate reader.
