Description

FTI-2153 is a potent and highly selective inhibitor of farnesyltransferase (FTase), with an IC50 of 1.4 nM. FTI-2153 is >3000-fold more potent at blocking H-Ras (IC50, 10 nM) than Rap1A processing. Anti-cancer activity[1].

In Vitro

FTI-2153, inhibits bipolar spindle formation during mitosis independently of transformation and Ras and p53 mutation status in two human lung cancer cell lines[2].
FTI-2153 increases the percentage of prometaphase cells with ring-like DNA morphology in transformed and non-transformed cells[2].
FTI-2153 (15 μM) inhibits T-24 and Calu-1 cell growth by 38 and 36%, respectively. NIH3T3, HFF and HT-1080 are less sensitive and are inhibited by only 8, 8 and 13%, respectively. A-549 and OVCAR3 cell growth is inhibited by 25 and 22%, respectively. Thus, even though T-24 and Calu-1 cells are equisensitive to FTI-2153 cell growth inhibition, FTI-2153 inhibits bipolar spindle formation only in Calu-1 cells. HFF and NIH3T3 cells are both resistant to FTI2153 growth inhibition, yet only NIH3T3 cells are resistant to FTI-2153 inhibition of bipolar spindle formation[2].

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

Cell Viability Assay[2]

Cell Line: NIH3T3, HFF, HT1080, T-24, OVCAR3, A-549 and Calu-1 CELLS.
Concentration: 48 h.
Incubation Time: 15 μM.
Result: When A-549 cells were treated with FTI-2153 (15 μM for 48 h), the proportion of cells at prometaphase increased relative to the other phases of mitosis.
FTI-2153 accumulated cells at prometaphase with a rosette-like morphology where chromosomes form a ring surrounding a monoaster of microtubules.
In all cells, except for T-24 and NIH3T3, FTI-2153 treatment increased the proportion of mitotic cells in prometaphase and decreased the percentage of cells in telophase/cytokinesis.
In HT1080 cells, the percentage of cells in prometaphase and telophase/ cytokinesis were 5 and 85% in control cells and 55 and 35% in Treated cells, respectively. Similarly results were also found in HFF cells. Calu-1 and A-549 cells, as described previously, had similarly large changes, whereas OVCAR3 had smaller changes. In contrast, FTI-2153 did not significantly affect the distribution of the different phases of mitosis in T-24 and NIH3T3 cells.

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 (5.36 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 (5.36 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.

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.
