Description

ZL0420 is a potent and selective bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) inhibitor with IC50 values of 27 nM against BRD4 BD1 and 32 nM against BRD4 BD2.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 27 nM (BRD4 BD1), 32 nM (BRD4 BD2)[1]

In Vitro

ZL0420 is well docked into the acetyl-lysine (KAc) binding pocket of BRD4, forming key interactions including the critical hydrogen bonds with Asn140 directly and Tyr97 indirectly via a H2O molecule. ZL0420 exhibits submicromolar potency of inhibiting the TLR3-dependent innate immune gene program, including ISG54, ISG56, IL-8, and Groβ genes in cultured human small airway epithelial cells (hSAECs) with IC50s of 0.49-0.86 µM[1].

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

In Vivo

ZL0420 demonstrates potent efficacy reducing airway inflammation in a mouse model with low toxicity. ZL0420 displays high efficacy and almost completely blocks the profound accumulation of neutrophils around the small and medium sized airways induced by poly(I:C) administration[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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (7.02 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (7.02 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 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.

Cell Assay
[1]

hSAECs are first pretreated with a series final concentrations of BRD4 inhibitors from 0.01 nM to 100 µM for 24 hours and are then added poly(I:C) at 10 µg/mL for another 4 hours prior to harvesting the cells. The harvested cells are first ished with PBS twice and then the total RNA is extracted using acid guanidinium phenol extraction. The total RNA is further reverse-transcribed for gene expression analysis by Q-RT-PCR[1].

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

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice[1]

C57BL/6 mice are pre-treated in the absence or presence of the ZL0420 [10 mg/kg body weight, via the intraperitoneal route] one day prior to poly(I:C) stimulation. The next day, animals are given another dose of ZL0420 immediately followed by intranasal (i.n.) administration of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, 50 µL) or poly(I:C) (300 µg dissolved in 50 µL PBS). One day later, the mice are euthanized. The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissues of treated mice are collected for further analysis[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.
