  3. K67

K67 is a selective the interaction between Keap1 and S349 phosphorylated p62 inhibitor, with an IC50 of 1.5 μM. K67 has a weaker inhibitory effect on the interaction between Keap1 and Nrf2 (IC50 is 6.2 μM). K67 competitively binds to the binding site of Keap1 with p-p62, blocking the abnormal activation of the p62-dependent Nrf2 pathway. K67 inhibits tumor cell proliferation and enhances the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to chemotherapeutic drugs by restoring Keap1-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of Nrf2.

Description

K67 is a selective the interaction between Keap1 and S349 phosphorylated p62 inhibitor, with an IC50 of 1.5 μM. K67 has a weaker inhibitory effect on the interaction between Keap1 and Nrf2 (IC50 is 6.2 μM). K67 competitively binds to the binding site of Keap1 with p-p62, blocking the abnormal activation of the p62-dependent Nrf2 pathway. K67 inhibits tumor cell proliferation and enhances the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to chemotherapeutic drugs by restoring Keap1-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of Nrf2[1][2].

In Vitro

K67 (50 μM; 24-72 h) significantly inhibits the proliferation of Huh1 cells and Huh7 cells expressing phospho-mimetic p62 in cell viability assays1.
K67 (50 μM; 12-48 h) inhibits the expression of Nrf2 target genes in Huh1 cells1.
K67 (50 μM; 4-36 h respectively) significantly reduces the content of Nrf2 in the nucleus and cytoplasm of Huh1 cells and Keap1 accumulates in a time-dependent manner1.
K67 (50 μM; treated for 12 h) significantly inhibits the interaction between phosphorylated p62 and Keap1 and promotes the interaction between Nrf2 and Keap1 in immunoprecipitation assays in Huh1 cells1.
K67 (50 μM; treated for 4 h + 8 h (with the addition of the proteasome inhibitor lactacystin)) significantly promotes the ubiquitination of Nrf2 in Huh7 cells (expressing S351E)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    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 10 mg/mL (17.16 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 10 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 (100.0 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.
