Name | WYE-354 |
Description | WYE-354(IC50=5 nM) is an effective, selective and ATP-competitive mTOR inhibitor. It blocks mTORC2/P-AKT(S473) and mTORC1/P-S6K(T389), not P-AKT(T308). The selectivity for mTOR is higher than PI3Kα (>100-fold) and PI3Kγ (>500-fold). |
Cell Research | Tumor cell lines including MDA-MB-361, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, LNCap, DU145, A498, and HCT116, are plated in 96-well plates at 1000 to 3000 cells per well for 24 hours, treated with DMSO or varying concentrations of WYE-354(0–50 μM, dissolved in DMSO) for72 hours. |
Kinase Assay | The assays were incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. In 96-well plates (25 μL) contains 6 nM Flag-TOR(3.5) (estimated 5-10% purity), 1 μM His6-S6K and 100 μM ATP.For inhibitor versus ATP matrix competition, mTOR kinase reactions are carried out with varying concentrations of ATP (0, 25, 50 100, 200, 400 and 800 μM) in combination with varying concentrations of inhibitor.The assays are performed and detected by DELFIA employing the Euphospho-p70S6K T389 antibody. |
Animal Research | Nude mice (BALB/c, nu/nu, female) bearing PC3 mM2 xenograft were intraperitoneally injected with WYE-354(50 mg/kg)dissolved in 5% ethanol, 5% polysorbate 80, 5% PEG-400. |
In vitro | In HEK293 cells, WYE-354 (0.2 μM–5 μM) effectively inhibits both mTORC1 and mTORC2. In U87 mg and MDA361 cells, WYE-354 (0.3 μM–10 μM) significantly blocks mTOR signaling and Akt activation. In tumor cell lines including MDA-MB-361, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, LNCap, A498, and HCT116, WYE-354 effectively inhibits proliferation with IC50 values ranging from 0.28 μM to 2.3 μM. In endothelial HUVEC cells, WYE-354 also inhibits both mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling with IC50 values ranging from 10 nM to 1 μM, as revealed by dephosphorylation of S6 ribosomal protein and Akt, respectively. The apoptosis induced by WYE-354 is accompanied by G1 cell cycle arrest and caspases activation.WYE-354 (10 nM–1 μM) activates mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling, which may be due to its inhibition of mTORC1. |
In vivo | WYE-354 (50 mg/kg) potently inhibits mTOR signaling and tumor growth In a mice xenograft model of PTEN-null PC3 mM2 tumor. |
