Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | In vitro, NSC668394 (10 μM; sham for 15 minutes) inhibits actin binding and ezrin T567 phosphorylation (IC50=8.1 μM) [1]. NSC668394 (1–10 μM; 2–6 h) prevents K7M2 skeletal growth mediated by ezrin. JM1 and JM2 dynasty cell line proliferation is severely inhibited by NSC668394 (20 μM) [2]. The horsefish (OS) cell motility phenotype on the thorax of HUVEC monolayers is diminished by NSC668394 (10 μM) [1]. |
| ln Vivo | In the lung, NSC668394 (0.226 mg/kg/day; intraperitoneally; 5 days a week) inhibits ezrin-coupled peripheral OS migratory growth [1]. |
| Cell Assay |
Western Blot analysis [1] Cell Types: K7M2 OS cells Tested Concentrations: 10 μM Incubation Duration: 6 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Inhibits T567 phosphorylation and actin binding of endogenous ezrin without changing cellular ezrin levels. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Female BALB/c and SCID/Beige mice were injected with K7M2 or MNNG-HOS tumor cells [1]. Doses: 0.226 mg/kg/day. Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection, 5 days a week for 66 days. Experimental Results: Shows increased survival rates. Reduces the number of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-expressing metastases in lung tissue. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ~50 mg/mL (~110.60 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.53 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 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.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
