    Description

    PLX8394 is a potent and selective BRaf inhibitor, with an IC50 of appr 5 nM for BRAFV600E.

    IC50 & Target[1]

    BRafV600E

    5 nM (IC50)

    In Vitro

    PLX8394 potently inhibits phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in PRT #3 and PRT #4 cells at >25 nM and in addition to parental cells at 10 nM. PLX8394 effectively reduces cyclin D3 and cyclin D1, phosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein, and expression of cyclin A2 in parental cells and PRT #3 and PRT #4 cells. PLX8394 inhibits ERK1/2 phosphorylation and the growth of PLX4032-resistant cells harboring either a BRAF V600K/L505H double mutation or an transposon-induced, N-terminal truncated form of BRAF[1]. PLX8394 significantly impairs tumor cell growth and suppresses MAPK signaling in LA cell lines expressing either endogenous V600E or non-V600 mutant forms of BRAF[2].

    In Vivo

    PLX8394 (150 mg/kg/d) substantially suppresses tumor growth, MAPK pathway signaling and tumor cell proliferation in these H1755 xenograft tumors without overt toxicity in mice. PLX8394 combines with CP-358774 yields plasma CP-358774 concentrations of >1 μM[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    90% Corn Oil

      Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (9.22 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 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 (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

    • Protocol 2

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

      Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.83 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.

    Cell Assay
    [1]

    For MTT assays, 2×103 cells are seeded in triplicate in 96 wells in their regular culture medium (containing PLX4720 for PRT lines). Next day, cells are washed twice with PBS and then the medium is replenished containing the indicated RAF inhibitor. Medium is changed 48 hours later and after a further 48 hours, 10 μL of 5 mg/mL MTT reagent is added to wells, and incubated for three hours. Formazan crystals are then solubilized overnight with a 1:10 dilution of 0.1 M glycine (pH 10.5) in DMSO. Wells are then analyzed at 450 nM in a Multiskan® Spectrum spectrophotometer. Results depicted are normalized to DMSO conditions and are a composite of three independent experiments. Error bars shown are representative of the standard error of mean (SEM).

    Animal Administration
    [2]

    H1755 tumor xenografts are generated by injection of 5×106 cells in a 50/50 mixture for matrigel and PBS into 6- to 8-wk-old female NOD/SCID mice. Mice are randomized to treatment groups once tumors reach an average size of 150 mm3. H1755 cells are s.c. implanted and allowed to grow to appr 200 mm3 (4 wk after implantation). Mice are then treated with vehicle, PLX4032, or PLX8394 for 15 d. The vehicle for daily oral gavage is PEG 400 [20% (vol/vol)], tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (TPGS) [5% (vol/vol)], water [75% (vol/vol)]. PLX8394 is dissolved in PEG 400 [20% (vol/vol)], TPGS [5% (vol/vol)], and water [75% (vol/vol)] and vortexed continuously throughout the dosing period. PLX8394 is given daily by oral gavage at a dose of 150 mg/kg/d.

    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.
