LY2801653 dihydrochloride

Kinase Assay [1]
The Ki value and mode of inhibition of LY2801653 for the MET kinase activity are determined using a radiometric filter-binding assay. Reactions are carried out in 96-well plates in Enzyme dilution buffer (EDB) compose of 50 mM Tris HCl pH 7.5, 2 mM DTT, 0.005% Triton X-100, 10 mM MgCl2, and 250 μM EDTA. Serially diluted LY2801653 (final concentration 250 to 0 nM) are followed by the addition of a series of 8 concentrations of 33P-γ-ATP (final concentration 400 to 10 μM ATP), and 5 nM enzyme (final concentration). After a 2-hour incubation, PolyGluTyr synthetic protein substrate (final 150 μg/mL) is added to initiate the 30-minute kinase reaction. Reactions are quenched with 10% H3PO4, transfer to a pre-wetted Multiscreen anionic phosphocellulose 96-well filter plate, and washed; radioactivity is measured with a scintillation counter. The experimental data are fit to a global mix model inhibition equation using GraphPad Prism softwar to generate an alpha value to determine the modality of inhibition and to calculate the Ki value for LY2801653[1].

Cell Assay [1]
H460 cells are cultured in RPMI media supplemented with 10% FBS and plated (prior to becoming 70% confluent) in 96-well plates at 20,000 cells/well and are incubated overnight at 37°C. The next day, the cells are incubated with RPMI-1640 in low serum (0.5% FBS) for 2 hours prior to treatment with LY2801653. Thirty minutes after the addition of LY2801653, HGF at a final concentration of 100ng/mL is added. After a 10-minute incubation, cell lysates are prepared and pMET is quantified. Relative IC50 values are determined using MSD activity units by calculating the percentage of inhibition with respect to on-plate MIN (unstimulated) and MAX controls and then fitting the percentage-of-inhibition values and 10-point dose response data to a 4-parameter logistic equation using ActivityBase[1].

Animal Administration [1]
S114 cells are implanted subcutaneously onto female athymic nude mice. For dose response evaluation, on day 8 after the implantation, LY2801653 is given at a range of 0.75 mg/kg to 100 mg/kg (n=8 per dose group). At 2 hours after dose, blood samples and tumors are collected and flash frozen. For time course study, LY2801653 is given at 12 mg/kg (n=10 per time point). Animals are sacrificed at 2, 8, 16, and 24 hours after dose, and blood samples and tumors are collected. pMET is measured in the S114 tumor lysates using the MSD ELISA assay. Lysates are prepared from pulverized frozen tumor tissue, and homogenized with Lysing Matrix D beads, with addition of RIPA lysis buffer containing phosphatase and protease inhibitors. Protein concentration is determined using the DC protein assay kit. The pMET MSD ELISA assay is performed.
