In vitro

In vitro VLX1570 is an analogue of b-AP15 that shows higher potency and improved solubility. This compound preferentially inhibits proteasomal DUB activity while not inhibiting the activities of a panel of non-proteasomal DUBs. It binds to and inhibits the activity of ubiquitin-specific protease-14 (USP14) in vitro, with comparatively weaker inhibitory activity towards UCHL5 (ubiquitin-C-terminal hydrolase-5). Treatment of multiple myeloma cells with this chemical induces the accumulation of proteasome-bound high molecular weight polyubiquitin conjugates and an apoptotic response. It induces the expression of the chaperone HSP70B′, the oxidative stress marker Hmox-1, and the ER stress marker XBP-1s. This compound is retained in cells after removal of drug and that USP14 was engaged by drug 17 hours after wash-out, as evidenced by thermal stabilization and persistent enzyme inhibition[1].
Cell Research Cell lines OPM-2 MM cells
Concentrations 0.5 μM
Incubation Time 3 h
Method

OPM-2 MM cells are exposed to 0.5 μM VLX1570 for 3 hours and 25 μg whole cell lysates are subsequently labeled with Ub-VS (1 μM), followed by SDS gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting with USP14 or UCHL5 antibodies. 

In Vivo

In vivo VLX1570 is an inhibitor of proteasome DUB activity currently in clinical trials for relapsed multiple myeloma. Treatment with this compound is found to lead to extended survival in xenograft models of multiple myeloma. The in vivo IC50 for inhibition of proteasome DUB activity and induction of apoptosis is <1 μM, with multiple myeloma cells showing greater levels of sensitivity compared to other tumor types. The lower IC50 for activity in vivo is presumably due to rapid drug uptake and enrichment in cells[1].

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
