Apatinib (YN968D1) mesylate

A poly(glu, ala, tyr) 6:3:1 random copolymer is used as a tyrosine containing substrate solution. The substrate is stored as a 1 mg/mL stock in PBS at −20 °C and diluted 1 in 500 with PBS in order to coat 96 well plates (100 μL/well). Plates are coated on the day prior to assay, sealed with adhesive seals, and stored overnight at 4 °C. On the day of the assay, the substrate solution is discarded and the assay plate wells are washed once with PBST (PBS containing 0.05% v/v Tween 20) and once with Hepes buffer (50 mM, pH 7.4).Test compounds are diluted with 10% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) de-ionized water and 25 μL volumes transferred to wells in the washed assay plates. Manganese chloride solution (40 mM) containing 8 μM ATP is then added (25 μL) to all test wells. Control and blank wells, containing compound diluent and manganese chloride solution with and without ATP, respectively, are also included to determine the dynamic range of the assay. Freshly diluted enzyme (50 μL) is added to each well, and the plates incubated at room temperature for 20 min. The liquid is then discarded and the wells are washed twice with PBST. Mouse IgG anti-phosphotyrosine antibody diluted 1:6000 with PBST containing 0.5% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) is added (100 μL/well), and the plates incubated for 1h at room temperature before discarding the liquid and washing the wells twice with PBST. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-linked sheep anti-mouse Ig antibody diluted 1:500 with PBST containing 0.5% (w/v) BSA, is then added (100 μL/well) and the plates incubated for a further 1 h at room temperature before discarding the liquid and washing the wells twice with PBST. A 1 mg/mL solution of 2,2‘-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid is freshly prepared in 50 mM phosphate-citrate buffer (pH5.0) containing 0.03% (w/v) sodium perborate, and 100 μL added to each well. Plates are then incubated for 20−60 min at room temperature until the optical density value of control wells measured at 405 nm is approximately 1.0. IC50 values for compound enzyme inhibition are interpolated using Microcal Origin following subtraction of blank values.

HUVEC

~25 μM

72 h

The HUVEC are seeded into 96-well plates. After 24 h of incubation, cells are exposed to the test agents (vehicle as control) together with 20 ng/mL VEGF or 20% FBS for another 72 h. After fixation with 10% trichloroacetic acid, the cells are stained with 0.4% sulforhodamine B for 30 min at 37 °C and then washed with 1% acetic acid. Tris is added to dissolve the complex, and the optical density is measured at 520 n
