Product Description

Merimepodib, formerly known as VX-497, is orally bioavailable IMPDH inhibitor, which inhibits the proliferation of primary human, mouse, rat, and dog lymphocytes at concentrations of approximately 100 nM. In vivo, orally bioavailable administration of VX-497 inhibits the primary IgM antibody response in a dose-dependent manner, with an ED(50) value of approximately 30-35 mg/kg in mice. Single daily dosing of VX-497 is observed to be as effective as twice-daily dosing in this model of immune activation. These studies demonstrate that VX-497 is a potent, specific, and reversible IMPDH inhibitor that selectively inhibits lymphocyte proliferation.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Within 48 hours of starting, VX-497's anti-proliferative effects on cells are reversed [1]. With an IC50 range from 6 to 19 μM, VX-497 exhibits moderate antiviral efficacy against Group II viruses, such as HSV-1, parainfluenza-3 virus, BVDV, VEEV, and dengue virus. With an IC50 of 380 nM, a corresponding CC50 of 5.2 μM, and a therapeutic index of 14, VX-497 is 100 times more effective [2].
ln Vivo
Primary IgM antibody responses are dose-dependently inhibited by port VX-497, which has an ED50 value of about 30-35 mg/kg in mice. It was found that a single daily dose of variable VX-497 was just as effective as twice daily dosing in this immune activation paradigm [1]. Allogeneic F1 mice given a vehicle treatment develop GVHD, and VX-497 treatment greatly reduces all illness symptoms. In animals treated with VX-497, the 2.9-fold rise in kidney weight observed in transplanted mice was lowered to a 1.6-fold increase. The native group's serum IFN-γ levels jumped 54-fold, whereas the VX-497-treated animals' levels increased 7.4-fold [3].

*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:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • 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
