Product Description

Adavosertib (formerly known as AZD-1775; MK-1775; AZD1775; MK1775) is a novel potent and selective small molecule Wee1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potential anticancer activity. Adavosertib inhibits G2 DNA damage checkpoint; it inhibits Wee1 with an IC50 of 5.2 nM in a cell-free assay. A small molecule inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase WEE1, MK-1775 may have antineoplastic sensitizing properties. Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDC2) is phosphorylated by WEE1, a tyrosine kinase that MK-1775 specifically targets and inhibits in order to inactivate the CDC2/cyclin B complex. MK-1775 enhanced, at tolerable doses, the antitumor efficaciousness of 5-FU or its prodrug, capecitabine, in vivo. The CDC2 phosphorylation inhibition and the induction of Histone H3 phosphorylation in tumors were well correlated with these enhancements. Furthermore, MK-1775 enhanced the in vitro cytotoxic effects of pemetrexed, doxorubicin, camptothecin, and mitomycin C. These findings validate the need to test MK-1775 in combination with different agents that damage DNA in cancer patients.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Wee1 (IC50 = 5.2 nM)
ln Vitro
MK-1775 blocks Wee1 kinase in a way that is competitive with ATP. In contrast to Wee1, MK-1775 exhibits >100-fold selectivity over human Myt 1, another kinase that phosphorylates cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDC2) at a different site (Thr14), 2- to 3-fold less potency against Yes with an IC50 of 14 nM, and 10-fold less potency against seven other kinases with >80% inhibition at 1 μM. MK-1775 treatment inhibits the basal phosphorylation of CDC2 at Tyr15 (CDC2Y15) with an EC50 of 49 nM and suppresses gemcitabine-, carboplatin-, or cisplatin-induced phosphorylation of CDC2 and cell cycle arrest in a dose-dependent manner, with EC50 of 82 nM and 81 nM, 180 nM and 163 nM, as well as 159 nM and 160 nM, respectively. These effects are achieved by disrupting the DNA damage checkpoint in WiDr cells bearing mutated p53. While MK-1775 treatment at 300 nM, which is sufficient to inhibit Wee1 by >80%, exhibits moderate but significant antiproliferative effects by 34.1% in WiDr cells and 28.4% in H1299 cells, MK-1775 treatment at 30-100 nM has no significant antiproliferative effect in WiDr and H1299 cells.[1]
ln Vivo
In rats with a T/C of 69% on day 3, MK-1775 treatment alone at ~20 mg/kg shows negligible antitumor effects against WiDr xenografts. In the TOV21G-shp53 and nude rat HeLa-luc xenograft models, MK-1775 alone has a moderate antitumor efficacy. (Source: )
Enzyme Assay
Wee1 is a human recombinant protein. A kinase reaction is carried out using 10 μM ATP, 1.0 μCi of [γ-33P]ATP, and 2.5 μg of poly(Lys, Tyr) as a substrate, all in the presence of increasing MK-1775 concentrations, at 30°C for 30 minutes. Radioactivity that has been mixed into the substrate is trapped on MultiScreen-PH plates and quantified using a liquid scintillation counter.
Cell Assay
The entire protein is extracted from the cell pellet using a lysis solution that contains 0.4 mol/L NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, and 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.9). The protein is then fortified with protease inhibitor, 1% NP-40, and 10 µL/mL phosphatase inhibitor cocktail 1 and 2. The Bio-Rad protein assay yields the protein concentration of the lysates. On an Immobilon membrane, equal volumes of protein are separated using 12% SDS-PAGE. Buffered saline (150 mM, pH 7.4) with 0.1% Tween (TBS-T) and 5% nonfat dry milk block nonspecific binding sites on the membrane. Protein signals are identified by soaking the membrane in 5% nonfat dry milk with a primary antibody overnight at 4°C. This is followed by 45 minutes of incubation in the corresponding secondary antibody that has been peroxidase-conjugated. After that, the membrane is developed using a Typhoon 9400 scanner and enhanced chemiluminescence with ECL and Western Blotting Detection Reagents.
Animal Protocol
Inoculation of 1×106 Calu-6 cells in 10 µL results in the production of tumor xenografts in the leg. Tumors with a diameter of 8 mm are treated with radiation and Adavosertib (MK-1775) for 5 days. Unanesthetized mice are given gamma-rays locally at a dose rate of 5 Gy/min via a small-animal irradiator that consists of two parallel-opposed 137Cs sources for their tumor-bearing legs. Tumors are exposed to radiation twice a day, six hours apart. Give adavosertib (MK-1775) by gavage in volumes of 0.1 mL one hour prior to and two hours following the initial daily radiation dosage.
