ProtocolIn VitroIn the PORCN radioligand binding assay, LGK974 effectively replaces [3H]-GNF-1331,IC50 is 1 nM. LGK974 effectively reduces Wnt-dependent AXIN30 mRNA levels in HN2 cells, IC50 is 0.3 nM
In VivoLGK974, a drug that targets Porcupine, a Wnt-specific acyltransferase. LGK974 effectively inhibits Wnt signaling, has a strong efficacy in rodent tumor models, and is well tolerated. Toxicological studies were performed on 3 and 20 mg/kg non-tumor-bearing rats. LGK3 was well tolerated at an effective dose of 14 mg/kg daily for 974 days, with no abnormal histopathological findings in Wnt-dependent tissues, including intestine, stomach, and skin. Intestinal epithelial cell loss was observed when rats were administered at very high doses of 20 mg/kg per day for 14 days, consistent with the concept that Wnt is necessary for intestinal tissue homeostasis

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in µL DMSO(Master liquid concentration mg/mL) ,Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take µL DMSO master liquid, next add µL PEG300, mix and clarify, next add µL Tween 80,mix and clarify, next add µL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
Note:
  • (1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
  • (2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
