A selective ERK inhibitor
VX-11e is a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable inhibitor of ERK with Ki < 2 nM.
VX-11e?is active in the HT29 cell proliferation assay (IC50=48 nM)[1].
VX-11e is orally bioavailable in both rat and mice[1]. VX-11e (50 mg/kg, p.o.) results in robust inhibition of pRSK, and inhibits tumor growth in NSG mice bearing human melanoma RPDX tumors. VX-11e with BKM120 significantly improves tumor growth inhibition[2].

ERK inhibition assay |
Compounds were assayed for the inhibition of ERK2 by a spectophotometric coupled-enzyme assay. In this assay, a fixed concentration of activated ERK2 (10 nM) was incubated with various concentrations of the compounds in DMSO (2.5%) for 10 mins at 30 ℃ in 0.1 M HEPES buffer, pH = 7.5, containing 10 mM MgCl2, 2.5 mM phosphoenolpyruvate, 200 μM NADH, 150 μg/mL pyruvate kinase, 50 μg/mL lactate dehydrogenase and 200 μM erktide peptide. The reaction was initiated by the addition of 65 μM ATP. The rate of decrease of absorbance at 340 nM was monitored. The IC50 was evaluated from the data as a function of inhibitor concentration. |

Dosage form |
50 mg/kg; p.o.; b.i.d. |
|
Applications |
In NSG mice bearing human melanoma RPDX tumors, VX-11e (50 mg/kg, p.o.) potently inhibited pRSK and tumor growth. VX-11e, combined with BKM120, resulted in significantly improved tumor growth inhibition. |
|
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
