XAV-939 est un tankyrase inhibiteur puissant qui cible la signalisation Wnt/β-caténine. XAV-939 stabilise l'axine par inhiber les tankyrase 1 et tankyrase 2 (IC50s de 5 et 2 nM, respectivement), il stimule ainsi la dégradation de la β-caténine. XAV939 se lie étroitement aux domaines catalytiques (PARP) de TNKS1 et TNKS2 (Kds de 99 et 93 nM, respectivement).

XAV-939 ist ein potenter tankyrase, der auf die Wnt/β-catenin signaling abzielt. XAV-939 stabilisiert Axin durch Hemmung von tankyrase 1 und tankyrase 2 (IC50 von 5 bzw. 2 nM) und stimuliert dadurch den Abbau von β-Catenin. XAV-939 bindet eng an die katalytischen (PARP-)Domänen von TNKS1 und TNKS2 (Kds von 99 bzw. 93 nM).

XAV-939 is a Tankyrase inhibitor. XAV-939 has inhibitory activity for TNKS1 and TNKS2 with IC50 values of 5 nM and 2 nM, respectively. XAV-939 also is an enhancer of osteoblastic differentiation of hMSCs. XAV-939 can be used for the research of conditions associated with activated Wnt signaling, such as cancer, fibrotic diseases and conditions associated with low bone formation.

    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

    • 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.
