Sample solution is provided at 25 µL, 10mM.
MK-5108 (VX-689) is a potent ATP-competitive inhibitor of Aurora A kinase with an IC50 value of 0.064nM [1]. MK-5108 induces G2/M accumulation and polyploidy in cells, and diminishes the expression of Aurora A kinase as well as the downstream of TACC3 and Plk1 [2]. MK-5108 has been widely used to inhibit the growth arrest and death of various cancer cells [3].
In vitro, MK-5108 treatment for 72 hours significantly inhibits the proliferation of H460 cells and A427 cells, with IC50 values of 0.25μM and 0.13μM, respectively[4]. Treatment with MK-5108 (0.4μM) in combination with trametinib (8nM) for 24 hours significantly induced cell cycle arrest in HCT116 cells and inhibited the expression of proteins related to the G1/S phase progression[5]. Treatment with MK-5108 (0.1μM) for 48 hours can induce autophagy in IMR-32 cells, as evidenced by the increased expression level of LC3A/B-II protein[6].
In vivo, MK-5108 treatment via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 20mg/kg/day for 5 consecutive days significantly reduced renal fibrosis and collagen deposition in the unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) mouse model, and alleviated renal inflammation[7]. Administering MK-5108 (30mg/kg) orally twice daily for 12 consecutive days significantly inhibited the growth of xenograft tumors in SCID mice bearing HCT116 tumors[8].

MK-5108 (VX-689)是一种有效的ATP竞争性Aurora A激酶抑制剂,IC50值为0.064nM[1]。MK-5108诱导细胞发生G2/M期积累和多倍体化,并减少Aurora A激酶及下游TACC3和Plk1的表达[2]。MK-5108已被广泛用于抑制多种癌细胞的生长停滞和死亡[3]。
在体外,MK-5108处理72小时显著抑制了H460细胞和A427细胞的增殖,IC50值分别为0.25μM和0.13μM[4]。MK-5108 (0.4μM) 联合trametinib (8nM) 处理HCT116细胞24小时,显著诱导了细胞周期阻滞,并抑制了与G1/S期进程相关的蛋白表达[5]。用MK-5108 (0.1μM) 处理IMR-32细胞48小时,可诱导细胞自噬,表现为LC3A/B-II蛋白表达水平升高[4]。
在体内,每日腹腔注射20mg/kg剂量的MK-5108,连续5天,显著减少了单侧输尿管梗阻(UUO)小鼠模型中的肾纤维化和胶原沉积,并减轻了肾脏炎症[7]。每日两次口服30mg/kg剂量的MK-5108,连续12天,显著抑制了携带HCT116肿瘤的SCID小鼠体内异种移植瘤的生长[8]。
| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | H460 cells |
Preparation Method | H460 cells were maintained at 37°C in 5% CO2 in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 1×penicillin/streptomycin, 1×l-glutamine, 1×MEM vitamin solution, and 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS). Cells were seeded at 1×103 cells/well in 96-well flat-bottom plates and allowed to attach overnight prior to treatment, and were treated with MK-5108 for 72h (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 20µM). Then, analyze the cell viability. |
Reaction Conditions | 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 20µM; 72h |
Applications | MK-5108 treatment significantly reduced cell viability of H460 cells in a dose-dependent manner. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | SCID mice |
Preparation Method | SCID mice were kept in temperature-controlled (21°C-25°C) and humidity-maintained (40%-70%) rooms with a 12-h light/dark cycle. Water and food were provided freely. HCT116 cells were suspended in 50% Matrigel and 50% PBS, and s.c. transplanted into the side flank of SCID mice (1×107 cells/100μl). After 8 days, MK-5108 was suspended in 0.5% methyl cellulose/0.24% SDS (30mg/kg) and orally administered twice daily for 12 days. The volume (mm3) of each tumor was determined from the tumor diameter, which was measured with digital calipers using the following formula: tumor volume (mm3) = length×(width)2×0.5. |
Dosage form | 30mg/kg; twice a day for 12 days; p.o. |
Applications | MK-5108 treatment significantly inhibited the growth of xenograft tumors in SCID mice bearing HCT116 tumors. |
