Product Description

LY2334737 is the orally bioavailable prodrug of gemcitabine that is cleaved systemically to gemcitabine, a nucleoside anticancer drug used in chemotherapy. LY2334737 is an orally administered valproic acid ester of gemcitabine, a broad-spectrum antimetabolite with antineoplastic activity.After activation, oral administration of LY2334737 results in anticancer activity. By avoiding hydrolysis in enterocytes and the portal circulation, LY2334737 is able to increase systemic gemcitabine availability by avoiding first pass metabolism, in contrast to gemcitabine. Carboxylesterase 2 (CES2) hydrolyzes LY2334737, releasing gemcitabine systemically over a timescale that is consistent with formation rate-limited kinetics. Gemcitabine is subsequently transformed by deoxycytidine kinase into the active metabolites difluorodeoxycytidine triphosphate and diphosphate (dFdCDP and dFdCTP). Because dFdCDP inhibits ribonucleotide reductase, less deoxynucleotide is available for DNA replication. When dFdCTP is incorporated into DNA, DNA replication ends prematurely and eventually apoptosis is induced.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71)
ln Vitro
LY2334737 treatment produced a response in five CES2-expressing cell lines. SK-OV-3 CES2 knockdown cells are less cytotoxic to LY2334737 than to parental cells. The level of CES2 expression was correlated with the drug response of HCT-116 cells transfected with CES2. Bystander investigations reveal that when cells are cocultured with CES2 rather than mock transfectants, LY2334737 statistically significantly inhibits PC-3-GFP growth[1].
ln Vivo
Tumor growth inhibition of CES2 transfectant is higher than that of mock transfectant when 3.2 mg/kg LY2334737 is administered orally to xenograft models once daily for 21 days|1. In luciferase-tagged LM2-4 tumor xenografts, metronomic LY2334737 administration results in increased blood flow. This effect can be easily measured using contrast micro-ultrasound, and it coincides with a relative increase in tumor bioluminescence[3].

  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • 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
