Description

LXE408 is an orally active, non-competitive and kinetoplastid-selective proteasome inhibitor. LXE408 has an IC50 of 0.04 μM for L. donovani proteasome and an EC50 of 0.04 μM for L. donovani. LXE408 has a low propensity to cross the blood brain barrier. LXE408 has the potential for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) research[1].

In Vitro

LXE408 (compound 1) can occupy the pocket as a ternary complex with the proteasome. LXE408 shows no inhibition of the hERG channel (IC50>30 μM) in a manual patch clamp assay. LXE408 has a low propensity to cross the blood brain barrier (brain/plasma AUC ratio=0.03 in mice)[1].

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

In Vivo

LXE408 (compound 1; 0.3-10 mg/kg; PO; twice daily for 8 days) potently reduces the parasite burden in the liver in a dose-dependent manner[1].
LXE408 (1, 3, 10, 20 mg/kg; p.o.; b.i.d.; for 10 days) effects robust healing of parasite-induced skin lesions at the base of the tail in BALB/c mice infected with L. major[1].
LXE408 (5 mg/kg IV and 20 mg/kg PO) has a T1/2 of 3.3 hours for mouse. LXE408 (3 mg/kg IV and 10 mg/kg PO) has a T1/2 of 3.8 hours, a CL of 2.1 mL/min•kg, and a Vss of 0.53 L/kg for male Sprague-Dawley rat[1].
LXE408 (0.3 mg/kg IV and 1.0 mg/kg PO) has a T1/2 of 3.8 hours for male beagle dog. LXE408 (0.3 mg/kg IV and 10 mg/kg PO) has a T1/2 of 9.7 hours for male cynomolgus monkey[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: ≥ 0.62 mg/mL (1.40 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.62 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (6.2 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: ≥ 0.62 mg/mL (1.40 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.62 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (6.2 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.
