Product Description

Silmitasertib (CX-4945; CX4945; CX 4945) is a potent, selective, orally bioavailable small-molecule inhibitor of CK2 (casein kinase 2) with potential anticancer activity. It inhibits CK2 with an IC50 of 1 nM in a cell-free assay, and shows less potency againt Flt3, Pim1 and CDK1 (inactive in cell-based assay). CX-4945 selectively binds to and inhibits the enzyme casein kinase II (CK2), which may lead to an inhibition of cellular proliferation. CK2 is a protein kinase overexpressed in a variety of cancer cell types and is correlated with malignant transformation, tumor growth and survival.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Cell-cycle arrest and selective apoptosis in cancer cells as compared to normal cells are caused by silmitasertib (CX-4945), which also attenuates PI3K/Akt signaling. The antiproliferative activity of silmitasertib (CX-4945) is correlated with the expression levels of the CK2α catalytic subunit. In order to buffer the PS-341-mediated proteotoxic stress in the ER lumen, leukemic cells cannot engage a functional UPR. Silmitasertib (CX-4945) with PS-341 therapy reduces pro-survival ER chaperon BIP/Grp78 expression[2]. Activation of the CK2-mediated PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathways is suppressed and cytotoxicity and apoptosis are induced in hematological malignancies by silmitasertib (CX-4945) via downregulating CK2 expression[3].
ln Vivo
In murine xenograft models, silmitasertib (CX-4945) (25 or 75 mg/kg, po) is well tolerated and has shown strong anticancer activity with simultaneous decreases in the mechanism-based biomarker phospho-p21 (T145)[1].
Animal Protocol
Dissolved in DMSO, and diluted in PBS; 25 or 75 mg/kg; Oral gavage
Female immunocompromised mice CrTac:Ncr-Foxn1nu injected with BxPC-3 or BT-474 cells

Additional Infomation
Silmitasertib is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03904862 (Testing the Safety and Tolerability of CX-4945 in Patients With Recurrent Medulloblastoma Who May or May Not Have Surgery).
Silmitasertib is an orally bioavailable small-molecule inhibitor of the enzyme casein kinase II (CK2), with potential antineoplastic, anti-viral and immunomodulatory activities. Upon oral administration, silmitasertib selectively binds to and inhibits the activity of CK2. This may inhibit proliferation of CK2-expressing tumor cells, and may also inhibit the replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV-2). In addition, this may restore normal host cell cytokine regulation, prevent cytokine storm and suppress the hyperactivation of the innate immune system. CK2, a protein kinase often overexpressed in a variety of cancer cell types, appears to be correlated with malignant transformation, tumor growth and survival. CK2 regulates a diverse array of pro-survival cellular processes including epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling, PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling, hedgehog (Hh) signaling, Hsp90 machinery, hypoxia, and interleukin (IL)-6 expression. CK2 also regulates the activity of XRCC1 and MDC1, two mediator/adaptor proteins that are essential for DNA repair. CK2 is upregulated by SARS-COV-2 and is associated with SARS-COV-2 viral replication and the development of cytokine storm.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*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.

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:

  • 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
