Venetoclax

SKU: orb1306442

Description

Venetoclax (ABT-199) is a highly potent and selective oral Bcl-2 inhibitor (Ki<0.01 nM) with significantly lower affinity for Bcl-xL. It induces apoptosis and autophagy, making it a key tool for cancer research in both in vitro and in vivo models, particularly for studying hematological malignancies.

  Bcl-W:245 nM (Ki)|Bcl-2:<0.01 nM (Ki, cell free)|BCL-XL:48 nM (Ki, cell free)
• In Vivo:
  METHODS: To test the antitumor activity in vivo, Venetoclax (100 mg/kg in 60% PG+30% PEG 400+10% ethanol) was orally administered once daily for twenty-one days to C.B-17 SCID-beige mice bearing human diffuse large B-cell lymphoma Toledo. RESULTS: Venetoclax significantly inhibited the growth of Toledo tumor (TGImax=93%, TGD=220%). METHODS: To assay anti-tumor activity in vivo, Venetoclax (50 mg/kg in 10% ethanol+30% PEG 400+60% Phosal 50PG, administered orally once daily) and anti-PD-1 (10 mg/kg in PBS, administered intraperitoneally three times every four days) were administered to C57BL/6 mice harboring mouse colorectal carcinoma tumor MC38 for fourteen days. RESULTS: Venetoclax enhances the antitumor efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and increases PD-1+ T effector memory cells. Venetoclax does not impair human T-cell function in response to antigenic stimulation in vitro, nor does it antagonize anti-PD-1-induced T-cell activation.
• In Vitro:
  METHODS: Eleven human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells T-ALL were treated with Venetoclax (0-12 μM) for 48 h. Cell viability was measured by Celltiter-Glo Luminescent Cell Viability Assay. RESULTS: The IC50 values of Venetoclax against 11 T-ALL species ranged from 0.2-10 μM. METHODS: Human acute lymphoid leukemia cells RS4;11 were incubated with Venetoclax (0.01-5 μM) for 3.5 h. Caspase-3/7 activity was assessed using the Caspase-GLO kit. RESULTS: Venetoclax induced the activation of caspases, which is one of the characteristics of apoptosis. METHODS: Human primary HCL leukemia cells were treated with Venetoclax (0.1-1 μM) for 24 h. Cell death was detected using Flow Cytometry method. RESULTS: Venetoclax significantly increased cell death in HCL cells in a dose-dependent manner.
• Cell Research:
  RS4;11 cells were seeded at 50,000 per well in 96-well plates and treated with compounds diluted in half-log steps starting at 1 μM and ending at 0.00005 μM. All other leukemia and lymphoma cell lines were seeded at 15,000–20,000 cells per well in the appropriate medium and incubated with ABT-199 or navitoclax for 48 h. Effects on proliferation were determined using Cell TiterGlo reagent. EC50 values were determined by nonlinear regression analysis of the concentration-response data. Mouse FL5.12–BCL-2 and FL5.12–BCL-XL cells were propagated and assessed as described previously. Bak / Bax / double knockout mouse embryonic fibroblasts were seeded into 96-well microtiter plates at 5,000 cells per well in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS. ABT-199 in the same culture medium was added in half-log dilutions starting at 5 μM. The cells were then incubated at 37 °C (5% CO2) for 48 h, and the effects on proliferation were determined using Cell TiterGlo reagent according to the manufacturer's instructions .
• Animal Research:
  Female C.B-17 SCID mice (DoHH2 and Granta-519 xenografts) and female C.B-17 SCID-beige mice (RS4;11 and Toledo xenografts) were inoculated with 1 × 10^6 (DoHH2) or 5 × 10^6 (Granta-519, Toledo and RS4;11) cells subcutaneously in the right flank. The inoculation volume (0.2 ml) comprised a 50:50 mixture of cells in growth media and Matrigel. Electronic calipers were used to measure the length and width of each tumor 2–3 times per week. Tumor volume was estimated by applying the following equation: volume = length × width2/2. When tumors reached approximately 220 mm3, mice were size matched (day 0) into treatment and control groups. All xenograft trials were conducted using ten mice per group, and all mice were ear tagged and monitored individually throughout the studies. ABT-199 was formulated for oral dosing in 60% phosal 50 propylene glycol (PG), 30% polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400 and 10% ethanol, and bendamustine and rituximab were formulated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. ABT-199 was delivered approximately 2 h before bendamustine or bendamustine plus rituximab. TGImax was calculated as the greatest treatment response using the following equation: TGImax = (1 mean tumor volume of the treated group/mean tumor volume of the vehicle control group) × 100. The TGD (%) was determined as the percentage increase of the median time period for the treatment group to reach an arbitrary tumor volume of 1,000 mm3 relative to the vehicle control group. A complete tumor regression response was the portion of the population with tumors ≤25 mm3 for at least three consecutive measurements .
