KS15 is an inhibitor of the interactions between cryptochromes (CRYs: CRY1 and CRY2) and the CLOCK:BMAL1 heterodimer. KS15 impairs the feedback actions of CRYs on E-box-dependent transcription (EC50=4.9 μM) by CLOCK:BMAL1 heterodimer, an indispensable transcriptional regulator of the mammalian circadian clock. Anti-proliferative activity.

Description

KS15 is an inhibitor of the interactions between cryptochromes (CRYs: CRY1 and CRY2) and the CLOCK:BMAL1 heterodimer. KS15 impairs the feedback actions of CRYs on E-box-dependent transcription (EC50=4.9 μM) by CLOCK:BMAL1 heterodimer, an indispensable transcriptional regulator of the mammalian circadian clock. Anti-proliferative activity[1][2].

In Vitro

Applications? of? KS15? at? different concentrations? from? 1 μM to 10 μM restored the E-box-driven luciferase? activities? in? a? dose-dependent? manner, indicating that? KS15 evidently impairs the suppressive? actions? of? CRYs on CLOCK:BMAL1-induced? transcription.? KS15 inhibits the interactions between CRYs and BMAL1, resulting in the enhanced transcriptional activity in the core loop of? the molecular circadian? clock[1].
? KS15 directly binds to the C-terminal region of cryptochromes (CRYs: CRY1 and CRY2) and enhances E-box-mediated transcription[2].
? KS15 decreases the speed of cell growth and increased the chemosensitivity of MCF-7 cells to Doxorubicin and Tamoxifen. KS15 exerts an anti-proliferative effect and increases sensitivity to anti-tumor drugs in a specific type of breast cancer[2].

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 (5.95 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    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 (5.95 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    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.
