PNC-28 is a peptide from the mdm-2-binding domain (residues 17–26) of the p53 protein which contains a membrane crossing-penetratin sequence. PNC-28 can be used for pancreatic cancer research.

At equivalent molar concentrations, both the salt and free forms of a compound exhibit comparable biological activity. Nevertheless, the salt form (PNC-28 acetate) usually boasts enhanced water solubility and stability.

Description

PNC-28 is a peptide from the mdm-2-binding domain (residues 17–26) of the p53 protein which contains a membrane crossing-penetratin sequence. PNC-28 can be used for pancreatic cancer research[1][2].

In Vitro

PNC-28 (0-0.5 mg/mL) blocks growth of a lethal human pancreatic cancer cell line[2].

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

Cell Proliferation Assay[2]

Cell Line: MiaPaCa-2 human pancreatic carcinoma cells
Concentration: 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 mg/mL
Incubation Time: daily
Result: Showed dependent induction of tumor cell death starting at 0.1 mg/ml.
In Vivo

PNC-28 (2 mg/mouse, SC or IP, for 14 days) blocks the growth of BMRPA1. Tuc3 cells in vivo[1].
PNC-28 (1-20 mg/mouse, SC, for 14 days) inhibits BMRPA1. Tuc3 tumor growth especially if delivered directly to the tumor [1].

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

Animal Model: Athymic Nu/Nu mice (7–8 weeks, 22–24 g, injected i.p. with BMRPA1.Tuc3 cells)[1]
Dosage: 2 mg/mouse
Administration: Implanted s.c. or i.p., with 14 days mini-osmotic pumps releasing PNC-28 at a rate of 0.25 μl/hr
Result: No ascites was seen in the PNC-28-treated animals. strongly effective in inhibiting this particular tumor.
Animal Model: Athymic Nu/Nu mice (7–8 weeks, 22–24 g, injected i.p. with BMRPA1.Tuc3 cells)[1]
Dosage: 1 mg/mouse, 10 mg/mouse and 20 mg/mouse
Administration: When the tumors reached sizes from 40 to 260 mg/mouse, mini-osmotic pumps were implanted s.c. that released, over a period of 14 days
Result: Resulted in a significant level of tumor growth inhibition in a dose-related manner.

Peptide Solubility and Storage Guidelines:

1.  Calculate the length of the peptide.

2.  Calculate the overall charge of the entire peptide according to the following table:

  Contents Assign value
Acidic amino acid Asp (D), Glu (E), and the C-terminal -COOH. -1
Basic amino acid Arg (R), Lys (K), His (H), and the N-terminal -NH2 +1
Neutral amino acid Gly (G), Ala (A), Leu (L), Ile (I), Val (V), Cys (C), Met (M), Thr (T), Ser (S), Phe (F), Tyr (Y), Trp (W), Pro (P), Asn (N), Gln (Q) 0

3.  Recommended solution:

Overall charge of peptide Details
Negative (<0) 1.  Try to dissolve the peptide in water first.
2.  If water fails, add NH4OH (<50 μL).
3.  If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide.
Positive (>0) 1.  Try to dissolve the peptide in water first.
2.  If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution.
3.  If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO.
Zero (=0) 1.  Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first.
2.  For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration.

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.
