MS-444 (MS444; BE-34776; BE34776) is a novel and potent small-molecule inhibitor of HuR, which is an RNA-binding protein implicated in immune homeostasis and cancers. It also inhibits the activity of purified smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) with an IC50 value of 10 μM. MS-444 treatment of glioblastoma cells resulted in loss of viability and induction of apoptosis, with evidence implicating death receptor 5. BTICs were particularly sensitive to MS-444. At sub-lethal doses, MS-444 attenuated invasion of glioblastoma cells and BTICs in a transwell model.

ln Vitro |
MS-444 is a little chemical that inhibits the RNA-binding HuR (ELAVL1) protein. HuR overexpressing colorectal cancer (CRC) cells are treated with MS-444 (1-100 μM) for 48 hours, with IC50s for HCT116, HCA-7, RKO, HT-29, and SW480 cells being 10.98±1.76 μM, 12.84±2.10 μM, 5.60±0.90 μM, 14.21±2.11 μM, and 10.98±1.24 μM, respectively. All CRC lines exhibit growth suppression, with IC50 values ranging from 5.60 μM to 14.21 μM. Significant effects are evident at 10 μM MS-444. Non-transformed small intestinal (RIE-1; IC50=40.70±3.53 μM) and colonic (YAMC; IC50=28.16± 3.23 μM)) epithelial cells are used to observe contrasts. Both cell types are skilled in the degradation of 3′UTR AU-rich elements (ARE)-mRNA and exhibit characteristics of typical intestinal epithelial cells. With IC50 values of 40.70 μM and 28.16 μM (P<0.05), both non-transformed cell lines are approximately three to four times less susceptible to MS-444-mediated growth inhibition[2].

ln Vivo |
Mice containing HCT116 cell xenografts are given IP injections of MS-444 (25 mg/kg bw) or vehicle every 48 hours in order to examine the impact of the drug on CRC cell proliferation in vivo. The mice maintained their weights and showed no negative effects during the experiment. Tumor size is reduced by around 1.7 times as a result of MS-444's anti-tumor activities. Microvessel density (MVD) in mice treated with MS-444 decreases noticeably by two to three times, suggesting that the compound has anti-angiogenic properties[2].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2 mg/mL (8.69 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: 2 mg/mL (8.69 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.0 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. View More
Solubility in Formulation 3: 2 mg/mL (8.69 mM) in 10% 1-Methyl-2-pyrrolidinone 90% PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication (<50°C). |

*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.
