Biological Activity
| Targets | MEK1 (IC50 = 0.18 μM); MEK2 (IC50 = 0.22 μM); AP-1 (IC50 = 2.03 μM) |
| ln Vitro | SL327 is a structural homologue of the specific MKK1/2 inhibitor U0126 with IC50 of 0.18 μM and 0.22 μM for MEK1 and MEK2 respectively. Other kinases such as PKA, PKC, or CamKII are unaffected by SL327. [1] |
| ln Vivo | SL327 (50 mg/kg) crosses the blood-brain barrierand and blocks fear conditioning by inhibiting MAPK/ERK phosphorylation. [2] SL327 (30 mg/kg) significantly reduces spatial learning in mice. [3] SL327 (50 mg/kg) inhibits the effects of cocaine. [4] |
| Enzyme Assay | Assays for protein kinases are carried out. In the beginning of each kinase assay, enzyme is added to a mixture of substrate and [γ-32P]ATP. Then, this mixture is incubated for 10 minutes at 30 or 37 degrees Celsius. By aliquoting the reaction mixture and sprinkling it on Whatman P-81 phosphocellulose filter paper, the reaction can be stopped. The papers are then dried, scintillation counted, and washed in 150 mM H3PO4. By monitoring [32P]phosphate incorporation into the substrate Kemptide (100 μM), the catalytic subunit of PKA is evaluated. The phosphorylation of the synthetic peptide Autocamtide (100 M) in the presence of 100 M Calcium and 10 μg/mL Calmodulin is used to measure the activity of CaMKII. The catalytic subunit of PKC has a preferred substrate in the form of NG(28-43) (10 μM), a synthetic peptide analog of a neurogranin fragment. Substrate phosphorylation was always a linear function of both time and enzyme concentration. |

| Additional Infomation | SL-327 is a nitrile that is acrylonitrile in which the hydrogen attached to the same carbon as the cyano group has been replaced by an o-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl group, while the remaining hydrogens of the ethenyl group have been replaced by amino and (4-aminophenyl)sulfanyl groups. The configuration of the double bond is not specified. It is an inhibitor of MEK1 and MEK2. It has a role as an EC 2.7.12.2 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase) inhibitor and a neuroprotective agent. It is a member of (trifluoromethyl)benzenes, a nitrile, an enamine, an organic sulfide, a substituted aniline and a primary amino compound. |

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.45 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 (7.45 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.45 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. Solubility in Formulation 4: 2% DMSO+30% PEG 300+5% Tween 80+ddH2O: 5mg/mL  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
