Description

GCN2-IN-6 (Compound 6d) is a potent, and orally available GCN2 inhibitor confirmed by in-house enzymatic (IC50 of 1.8 nM) and cellular assays (IC50 of 9.3 nM). GCN2-IN-6 is also a eIF2α kinase PERK inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.26 nM (in enzymatic assay) and 230 nM (in cells)[1]. GCN2-IN-6 is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

IC50 & Target

GCN2

 

In Vitro

To examine the impact of GCN2 inhibition on cancer cell proliferation, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) CCRFCEM cells are treated with GCN2-IN-6 (Compound 6d) in the presence of asparaginedepleting agent asparaginase. Treatment with GCN2-IN-6 greatly sensitizes CCRF-CEM cells to asparaginase. The moderate antiproliferative effects achieved by combining asparaginase and GCN2-IN-6 treatment are observed in GCN2-wildtype (WT) mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells but not in GCN2-knockout (KO) MEF. GCN2-IN-6 demonstrates suppression on p-GCN2, p-eIF2α, and ATF4 activated by asparaginase[1].

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

In Vivo

GCN2-IN-6 (Compound 6d; 0.3-3 mg/kg; oral administration; for 8 hours; mice) treatment at 3 mg/kg suppresses both self-phosphorylation of GCN2 and the downstream effector ATF4 to the basal level following pretreatment with asparaginase[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 (4.29 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.29 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

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.
