Description

ML-18 is a non-peptide bombesin receptor subtype-3 (BRS-3) antagonist with an IC50 of 4.8 μM.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 4.8 μM (BRS-3)[1]

In Vitro

ML-18 inhibits specific 125I-BA1 (DTyr-Gln-Trp-Ala-Val-βAla-His-Phe-Nle-NH2)BB6-14 binding to NCI-H1299 lung cancer cells stably transfected with BRS-3 with IC50 values of 4.8 μM. ML-18 binds with lower affinity to the GRPR and NMBR with IC50 values of 16 and more than 100 μM, respectively. ML-18 at 16 μM inhibits the ability of 10 nM BA1 to elevate cytosolic Ca2+ in a reversible manner using lung cancer cells loaded with FURA2-AM. ML-18 at 16 μM inhibits the ability of 100 nM BA1 to cause tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGFR and ERK in lung cancer cells. It inhibits the proliferation of lung cancer cells[1].

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    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (4.39 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
  • Protocol 2

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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.39 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.

Kinase Assay
[1]

The cells are incubated in SIT buffer containing 0.25% bovine serum albumin and 250 μg/mL bacitracin and 125I-BA1 (100,000 cpm) is added, as well as various concentrations of unlabelled competitor (ML-18). After incubation at 37°C for 30 min, free 125I-BA1 is removed by washing 3 times in buffer and the cells which contain bound 125I-BA1 is dissolved in 0.2 N NaOH and counted in a gamma counter. The IC50 is calculated for each unlabeled competitor[1].

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

Cell Assay
[1]

Cell viability is measured using the MTT assay. NCI-H727 or NCI-H1299 cells transfected with BRS-3 are treated with ML-18 (0, 4.8, 16, 48 μM) or gefitinib added. After 2 days, 15 μL of 0.1 % MTT solution added. After 4 h, 150 μL of DMSO is added. After 16 h, the optical density at 570 nm is determined[1].

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.
