Description VX-702 is a highly specific p38α MAPK inhibitor, 14-fold higher selectivity for the p38α than p38β. VX-702 is a small molecule investigational oral anti-cytokine therapy for treatment of inflammatory diseases, specifically rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Targets&IC50 p38α:4 nM-20 nM
In vitro Administering VX-702 (0.1 mg/kg) twice daily exhibited effects similar to those of methotrexate (0.1 mg/kg). Furthermore, the efficacy of administering VX-702 (5 mg/kg) twice daily was akin to that of a once-daily dose of prednisolone (10 mg/kg). The MI/AAR ratio in the group treated with VX-702 (50 mg/kg) was significantly lower compared to both the control group and the group treated with VX-702 at 5 mg/kg. VX-702 has a half-life of 16-20 hours, a clearance volume of 3.75 L, and a distribution volume of 73 L/kg. It selectively inhibits the activity of p38 MAPK without affecting ERKs and JNKs.
In vivo VX-702 does not inhibit platelet aggregation induced by p38 MAPK activators. Treatment with VX-702 (1 μM) can completely or partially suppress p38 activity induced by various platelet activators, including thrombin, AYPGKF, SFLLRN, U46619, and collagen, with an IC50 ranging from 4-20 nM. Additionally, VX-702 dose-dependently inhibits the production of IL-6 (IC50: 59 ng/ml), IL-1β (IC50: 122 ng/ml), and TNFα (IC50: 99 ng/ml).
Kinase Assay HDAC enzyme assay in vitro: The deacetylase enzyme assay is based on a homogeneous fluorescence release assay. Purified recombinant HDAC enzymes are incubated with MGCD0103 diluted in various concentrations for 10 minutes in assay buffer [25 mM HEPES (pH 8.0), 137 mM NaCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 2.7 mM KCl] at room temperature. The substrate Boc-Lys(ε-Ac)-AMC is added to the reaction for further incubation at 37 °C. The concentration of the substrate and the incubation time varies for different isotypes of HDAC enzymes. A 20-min trypsin incubation at room temperature allows the release of the fluorophore from the deacetylated substrate. The fluorescent signal is detected by fluorometer at excitation of 360 nm, emission of 470 nm, and cutoff at 435 nm.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box
