Product Description

MK-2206 dihydrochloride (2HCl) is a novel, potent, orally bioavailable and highly selective allosteric inhibitor of the serine/threonine protein kinase Akt1/2/3 with potential anticancer activity. In cell-free assays, it inhibits Akt1/2/3 with IC50 values of 8 nM, 12 nM, and 65 nM, respectively; it has little to no inhibitory activity against 250 other protein kinases. By preventing Akt's Thr308 and Ser473 phosphorylation, MK-2206 may have anticancer effects. Akt signaling is suppressed by MK-2206, which also promotes cancer cell death when used alone or in combination with other chemotherapeutic drugs. MK-2206 increases sensitivity to rapamycin by enhancing apoptosis and sensitivity to reactive oxygen species.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Akt1 (IC50 = 8 nM); Akt2 (IC50 = 12 nM); Akt3 (IC50 = 65 nM)
ln Vitro
MK-2206 is an allosteric inhibitor and is activated by the pleckstrin homology domain. MK-2206 prevents the auto-phosphorylation of Akt at T308 and S473. Additionally, MK-2206 blocks the Akt-mediated phosphorylation of downstream signaling molecules like TSC2, PRAS40, and ribosomal S6 proteins. [1] MK-2206 inhibits Ras wild-type (WT) cell lines (A431, HCC827, and NCI-H292) more effectively than Ras-mutant cell lines (NCI-H358, NCI-H23, NCI-H1299, and Calu-6). In lung NCI-H460 or ovarian A2780 tumor cells, MK-2206 also exhibits synergistic responses when combined with cytotoxic drugs like erlotinib or lapatinib.[2] MK-2206 or siRNA-mediated Akt inhibition strongly induces autophagy in human glioma cells. However, eukaryotic elongation factor-2 (eEF-2) silencing suppresses MK-2206-induced autophagy while promoting apoptotic cell death.[3]
ln Vivo
MK-2206 shows 60% TGI and inhibits more than 70 % of phospho-Akt1/2 (T308 and S473) in A2780 ovarian cancer xenografts at a dose of 240 mg/kg. In a NCI-H292 xenograft, MK-2206 exhibits significant antitumor activity when combined with erlotinib or lapatinib. [2]
Enzyme Assay
Akt kinases are assayed by a GSK-derived biotinylated peptide substrate. By combining a lanthanide chelate (Lance)-coupled monoclonal antibody that is specific for the phosphopeptide with a streptavidin-linked allophycocyanin (SA-APC) fluorophore that will bind to the peptide's biotin moiety, homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) can be used to determine the degree of phosphorylation. When the Lance and APC are close together, the Lance transfers non-radiative energy to the APC, and the APC then emits light at a wavelength of 655 nm. Protease inhibitor cocktail (PIC) 100X: Benzamidine 1 mg/mL, Pepstatin 0.5 mg/mL, Leupeptin 0.5 mg/mL, Aprotinin 0.5 mg/mL; 10X assay reagent: 20 mM 9-glycerol phosphate, 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.3, 16.6 mM EDTA, 0.1% BSA, 0.1% Triton X-100, 0.17 nM labeled monoclonal antibody, and 0.0067 mg/mL SA-APC make up the quench buffer. Working solution for the ATP/MgCl2 assay: 1X Assay buffer, 1 mM DTT, 1X PIC, 5% glycerol, active Akt; Peptide working solution: 2 TM GSK biotinylated peptide, 1X Assay buffer, 1 mM DTT, 1X PIC, and 5% glycerol. The reaction is assembled by adding 16 µL of ATP/MgCl2 working solution to the appropriate wells. MK-2206 or vehicle (1.0 µL) is added followed by 10 µL of peptide working solution. The reaction is started by adding 13 μL of the enzyme working solution and mixing. The reaction is allowed to proceed for 50 min and then stopped by the addition of 60 µL HTRF quench buffer. The stopped reactions are incubated at room temperature for at least 30 min and then read in the instrument.
Cell Assay
In 96-well plates, 2-3 × 103 cells are seeded, and the plates are then incubated for 24 hours. After that, the cells receive additions of MK-2206 (0, 0.3, 1 and 3 μM). 72 or 96 hours later, cell proliferation is assessed.

  • 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
