Description

VH-298 is a highly potent inhibitor of the VHL:HIF-α interaction with a Kd value of 80 to 90 nM, used in PROTAC technology.

IC50 & Target

Kd: 80 to 90 nM (VHL:HIF-α)[1]

In Vitro

VH-298 is a potent, cell permeable and non-toxic chemical probe that triggers the hypoxic response by blocking the VHL. VH-298 is a highly potent inhibitor of the VHL:HIF-α interaction with Kd values of 90  and 80 nM in isothermal titration calorimetry and competitive fluorescence polarization assay. VH-298 binds with VHL complex very fast and dissociates slowly. VH-298 at 50 μM concentration exhibits negligible off-target effects in vitro against more than 100 tested cellular kinases, GPCRs and ion channels. VH-298 is cell permeable and not toxic to cells. The measured permeability of VH-298 is found to be 19.4 nm s -1. VH-298 induces concentration- and time-dependent on-target specific accumulation of hydroxylated HIF-α in human cell lines, including HeLa cancer cells and renal cell carcinoma 4 (RCC4) cells. VH-298 increases mRNA levels of EPO by 2.5-fold in RCC4-HA-VHL, but not in VHL-null RCC4-HA, indicating that pharmacological inhibition of VHL is able to stimulate endogenous EPO synthesis. VH-298 proves as effective as hypoxia in raising PHD2 and HK2 protein levels, however in HFF the BNIP3 protein level increases more with VH-298 treatment than hypoxia treatment[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    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.77 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% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.77 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 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.

Kinase Assay
[1]

VH-298 is screened at 50 μM concentration against a panel of 50 kinases. The remaining kinase activity is recorded in the end of the assay. The data is reported as average % activity remaining of assay duplicates for each kinase tested[1].

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

Cell Assay
[1]

Death of CTLs is analyzed by staining with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). Cells are plated in 96-well plates at 1×106 and treated with VHL inhibitors (VH-298) and respective non-binding cis-analogues for 24 h. Cells are spun down and resuspended in HBSS containing DAPI to identify dead and dying populations[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.
