Background
GSK2118436 is a selective BRAF V600E inhibitor. BRAF encodes a proto-oncogene B-Raf also known as serine/threonine protein kinase B-Raf. It is critical in regulating the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. BRAF mutations frequently occur in many human cancers. [1, 2] BRAF V600E mutant is constitutively active, allowing MAPK/ERK activation independent of upstream cues. [3]
GSK2118436 binds to Raf family kinases and inhibits their activity. It is highly selective against B-Raf V600E with IC50 of 0.8 nM, compared to wild type B-Raf and c-Raf with IC50s of 3.2 nM and 5.0 nM, respectively. [4]
GSK2118436 treatment shows selective inhibition of MAPK/ERK activation, proliferation, transformation and tumorigenicity. FDA approved GSK2118436 as a single agent treatment for advanced melanoma with BRAF V600E mutation on May 30, 2013.
GSK2118436 can be taken orally.

Protocol
|
Cell experiment [1]:
|
|
Cell lines
|
M257 wild-type BRAF, LCP BRAFV600R and WM266 BRAFV600D melanoma cell lines.
|
|
Preparation method
|
Soluble in DMSO. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37℃ for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below -20℃ for several months.
|
|
Reaction Conditions
|
3-100 nM; 72 h
|
|
Applications
|
Dabrafenib remarkably inhibits cell proliferation and phosphorylated ERK in both melanoma cell lines carrying a mutated BRAF.
|
|
Animal experiment [2]:
|
|
Animal models
|
Female CD1 nu/nu mice xenografted BRAFV600E (A375P) human tumor.
|
|
Dosage form
|
30 mg/kg; 14 days; dosed orally once daily.
|
|
Preparation method
|
0.5% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, 0.2% Tween 80 in pH 8.0 distilled water; 0.2 mL per 20 g of bodyweight.
|
|
Applications
|
Dabrafenib is orally bioavailable, reduces pERK and inhibits tumor growth. Dabrafenib reduces pERK and Ki67 by 89% and 28% respectively and increases p27 by 54%.

Other notes
|
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal.
