Description

mTOR inhibitor-8 is an mTOR inhibitor and autophagy inducer. mTOR inhibitor-8 inhibits the activity of mTOR via FKBP12 and induces autophagy of A549 human lung cancer cells[1].

IC50 & Target[1]

mTOR

 

Autophagy

 

In Vitro

mTOR inhibitor-8 (Compound 5e; 0.1-10 μM; 24 and 48 hours) suppresses the growth of A549 cells in a dose-dependent manner[1].
mTOR inhibitor-8 induces autophagy in an mTOR-dependent manner. mTOR inhibitor-8 (10 μM; 3-24 hours) induces autophagy in a time-dependent manner. The levels of LC3B-II are enhanced[1].
mTOR inhibitor-8 (10 μM; 3-24 hours) reduces the phosphorylation of RPS6KB1 (ribosomal protein S6 kinase) and EIF4EBP1 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-binding protein 1), two essential substrates of mTOR[1]

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: A549 cells
Concentration: 0.1, 1, 5, 10 μM
Incubation Time: 24 and 48 hours
Result: Suppressed the growth of A549 cells with an IC50 of 2.6±0.11 μM.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: A549 cells
Concentration: 10 μM
Incubation Time: 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours
Result: The levels of phosphorylation of RPS6KB1 and EIF4EBP1 were significantly decreased after treatment.
In Vivo

mTOR inhibitor-8 (25 and 50 μM; 6 days) effectively inhibits tumor growth in vivo without adverse effect on normal chick chorioallantoic membrane angiogenesis[1].

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

Animal Model: Fertile chicken eggs (7-9 days old)[1]
Dosage: 25 and 50 μM
Administration: 6 days
Result: Significant xenograft tumor remission was observed in eggs compared with the DMSO-treated eggs.

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 (4.65 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.08 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 (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% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.65 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 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.
