    In Vitro

    Sapanisertib (INK-128) exhibits an enzymatic inhibition activity against mTOR and more than 100-fold selectivity to PI3K kinases[1].
    Sapanisertib (INK-128) selectively decreases the expression of YB1, MTA1, vimentin and CD44 at the protein but not transcript level in PC3 cells. Sapanisertib (INK-128) decreases the invasive potential of PC3 prostate cancer cells. Furthermore, Sapanisertib (INK-128) inhibits cancer cell migration starting at 6 h of treatment, precisely correlating with when decreases in the expression of pro-invasion genes are evident, but preceding any changes in the cell cycle or overall global protein synthesis[2].

    In Vivo

    In a ZR-75-1 breast cancer xenograft model, Sapanisertib (INK-128) shows tumor growth inhibition efficacy at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg/day[1].
    4EBP1 and p70S6K1/2 phosphorylation is completely restored to wild-type levels after treatment with INK128 in PtenL/L mice. Sapanisertib (INK-128) treatment results in a 50% decrease in prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) lesions in PtenL/L mice and induces programmed cell death in multiple cancer cell lines in mice[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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.72 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.72 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Cell Assay
    [2]

    PC3 cells are treated with the appropriate drug for 48 h, and proliferation is measured using CellTiter-Glo Luminescent reagent. The concentration of Sapanisertib (INK-128) necessary to achieve inhibition of cell growth by 50% (IC50) is calculated using concentrations ranging from 20.0 μM to 0.1 nM (12-point curve).

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

    Animal Administration
    [2]

    Nude mice are inoculated subcutaneously in the right subscapular region with 5×106 MDA-MB-361 cells. After tumours reach a size of 150-200 mm3, mice are randomLy assigned into vehicle control or treatment groups. Sapanisertib (INK-128) is formulated in 5% polyvinylpropyline, 15% NMP, 80% water and administered by oral gavage at 0.3 mg/kg and 1 mg/kg daily.

    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.
