Description

BMS-214662 is a potent and selective farnesyl transferase inhibitor with potent antitumor activity with an IC50 of 1.35 nM.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 1.35 nM (farnesyl transferase), 1.3 μM (Ras-CVLL), 2.3 μM (K-Ras)[1]

In Vitro

BMS-214662 is over 1000-fold selective for farnesyl transferase, having IC50 values for inhibition of geranylgeranylation of Ras-CVLL and K-Ras of 1.3 and 2.3 μM, respectively[1]. BMS-214662 shows good potency in inhibiting H-ras-transformed rodent cells, A2780 human ovarian carcinoma tumor cells, and HCT-116 human colon carcinoma tumor cells. BMS-214662 is the most potent apoptotic FTI known and demonstrates broad spectrum yet robust cell-selective cytotoxic activity against a panel of cell lines with diverse histology[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Tumors from BMS-214662-treated mice have increased numbers of apoptotic cells as compared with the nontreated control mice. The AIs in HCT-116 tumors are increased 4-10-fold in BMS-214662-treated mice as compared with nontreated controls. BMS-214662 is significantly cytotoxic to both HCT-116 and EJ-1 tumor cells; the doses of BMS-214662 required to kill 90% of clonogenic tumor cells are approximately 75 and 100 mg/kg for HCT-116 and EJ-1 tumors[2].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.11 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.11 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Cell Assay
[2]

The hydrochloride salt of BMS-214662 is dissolved in DMSO with dilutions made using either water or RPMI 1640 plus 10% fetal bovine serum. BMS-214662 is added at various concentrations. The cells are incubated at 37°C for 72 h, at which time MTS in combination with phenazine methosulfate is added. After an additional 3 h, the absorbance is measured at 492 nm, and the growth inhibition results are eventually expressed as IC50s[2].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Administration
[2]

Mice: BMS-214662 is dissolved in ethanol, followed by dilution with water to a final ethanol concentration of 10%. Mice implanted with HCT-116 xenografts are administered a single dose of BMS-214662 at 250 mg/kg i.v., 300 mg/kg i.p., or 400 mg/kg p.o. An additional group receives 400 mg/kg BMS-214662 daily for 2 days (administered p.o. on day 1 and i.p. on day 2). Nontreated mice with time-matched HCT-116 tumors served as controls. Tumors are collected at 24 h after dose, processed following standard methods, sectioned, and stained with H&E. Serial sections of each tumor are processed for in situ apoptotic cell labeling by the TUNEL method[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
