Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | By preventing tumor angiogenesis and causing tumor cell apoptosis, MP-A08 inhibits pro-proliferative signaling pathways, causes mitochondria-associated apoptosis in an SK-dependent manner, and decreases the growth of human lung adenocarcinoma tumors in mouse xenograft models. Both cell types exhibit decreased EC barrier integrity in vitro as a result of MP-A08's inhibition of SphK2. [2] |
| ln Vivo | Mice xenografts of human lung tumors are inhibited in development by MP-A08. |

| Additional Infomation | MP-A08 is a sulfonamide that consists of two moieties of 4-methyl-N-phenylbenzenesulfonamide connected to each other at position 2 by an aldimine linker. It is a ATP-competitive inhibitor of sphingosine kinase that targets both SK1 and SK2 (Ki values of 27 muM and 6.9 muM, respectively) and exhibits anti-cancer properties. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, an apoptosis inducer, an angiogenesis inhibitor and an EC 2.7.1.91 (sphingosine kinase) inhibitor. It is a sulfonamide, a member of toluenes and an aldimine. |
Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ≥ 50 mg/mL (~96.22 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.81 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.81 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
