Product Description

NSC 23766 (NSC-23766; NSC23766) is a novel, selective and potent inhibitor of Rac GTPase with anti-influenza virus activity. It does not inhibit closely related proteins like Cdc42 or RhoA. Instead, it targets Rac activation via guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) with an IC50 of ~50 μM in a cell-free assay.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Rac GTPase (IC50 = 50 μM)
ln Vitro

NSC 23766 (100 μM) treatment effectively inhibits polar body emission in a dose-dependent manner. The percentage of oocyte spindles with abnormal morphology increases in response to NSC 23766 (200 μM). Oocytes treated with NSC 23766 exhibit a significant decrease in the expression of the p-MAPK protein[2]. Primordial follicles are increased and germLine cell cysts are decreased when NSC23766 (50 μM) is combined with 100 ng/mL Jagged1, GDF9, and BMP15[3]. In the spinal dorsal horn neurons, NSC23766 dramatically reduces GTP-Rac1 activity as well as the phosphorylation of Rac1-PAK, ERKs, and p38 MAPK[4].

ln Vivo
NSC23766 (2.5 mg/kg/day, i.p.) dramatically delays the onset of spontaneous diabetes in NOD mice while having no discernible effects on the mice's body weight or growth. In NOD mouse islets, NSC23766 dramatically upregulates the expression of Rac1 and CHOP, a marker for ER-stress[1].
Enzyme Assay
Protease and phosphatase inhibitors are used to homogenize fresh spinal cord tissue from the lumbar enlargement, and buffer is then used to lyse the tissue. The supernatants are collected and incubated with PAK-PBD beads at 4°C on a rotator for 1 hour after being centrifuged at 12,000× g for 5 min at 4°C.The beads are then pelleted by centrifugation at 5000× g for 3 min at 4°C. After being resuspended in LaemmLi buffer, the resultant pellet is boiled for two minutes. Western blot analysis is applied to the bead samples. Western blot analysis is also used to determine the total Rac1 in each sample.
Cell Assay
Each well of 96-well tissue culture plates is seeded with 1.5 × 104/mL of cells and 200 μL of medium. Following a 24-hour plating period, the medium is substituted with 200 μL of new medium that contains NSC23766 at the specified concentrations. Upon completion of the treatment period, 20 μL of MTS solution are introduced into each well and incubated for two hours at 37 °C. Using a 96-well plate reader, absorbance at 490 nm is measured.
Animal Protocol
At 7 weeks of age, Balb/c control and NOD mice are split into four groups (n=8/group). At eight weeks of age, two experimental groups—Balb/c and NOD mice—receive NSC23766 (2.5 mg/kg/day, i.p./daily), while the other two groups—control Balb/c and NOD mice—receive an equal volume of saline. Throughout 34 weeks, weekly blood glucose and body weight measurements are made.

*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.

  • 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)
