    IC50 & Target[1]

    Bcl-xL

    1.1 nM (IC50)

    In Vitro

    WEHI-539 hydrochloride is a selective inhibitor of Bcl-XL. WEHI-539 augments NSC 241240 induced caspase 3/7 activity, PARP cleavage and annexin V labelling. WEHI-539 as a single agent causes noticeable PARP cleavage in Ovcar-4 (5 μM in Ovcar-4.) and Ovsaho (1 μM in Ovsaho) cells[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 (4.03 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 (4.03 mM); Suspended solution

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

     If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
    Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.

    Cell Assay
    [2]

    Ovcar-8, Ovcar-3, Ovcar-4 and Ovsaho cells are grown in the RPMI, Igrov-1, Cov-362 and Cov-318 cells are grown in DMEM and Fuov-1 cells are grown in DMEM/F-12 nutrient mixture. ABT-737, ABT-199 and WEHI-539 (Medchem Express, NJ, USA), are prepared as a 20 mM solution in DMSO. For cell growth assays, cells are plated in 96 wells plate (5,000 cells/well for all cell lines except Ovcar-8 which is plated at a density of 2,500 cells/well). The next day, cells are treated with drugs. After 72 h the culture medium is removed and the cells are fixed with 100 μL of cold 10 % Trichloroacetic acid (TCA), incubated on ice for 30 min and stained with 0.4 % sulforhodamine B (SRB). The data are analysed by using Graphpad Prism 4 software. Non-linear regression is used to fit a four parameters Hill equation. For drug combinations studies the cells are exposed simultaneously to a range of concentrations of NSC 241240 combined with fixed concentration of BH3 mimetics that is expected from the single agent studies to cause 5 % growth inhibition: ABT-737, 1 μM in Ovcar-8, Ovcar-3 and Igrov-1, 2 μM in Ovcar-4 and Ovsaho and 6 μM in Cov-362; ABT-199, 1 μM in Ovcar-4, 2 μM in Ovcar-3, Igrov-1, Cov-362 and Ovsaho and 3 μM in Ovcar-8; WEHI-539, 0.2 μM in Igrov-1, 0.3 μM in Ovcar-8, 1 μM in Ovcar-3 and Ovsaho, 3.1 μM in Cov-362 and 5 μM in Ovcar-4. Surviving cell number is assessed by SRB staining. A combination index (CI) is calculated[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.
