Background

MG-262 (also known as Z-Leu-Leu-Leu-B(OH)2), a boronic peptide acid, is a potent proteasome inhibitor that selectively and reversibly inhibits the chymotryptic activity of the proteasome. It consists of a peptide and boronic acid moiety which are functional to proteasome inhibition. According to previous studies, MG-262 is capable of reducing the viability of nasal mucosa and polyp fibroblasts, provoking cell growth arrest, inhibiting DNA replication and retinoblastoma phosphorylation, increasing expression of the cell cycle inhibitor p21 and p27, and inducing cell death via loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, caspase-3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activation, induction of c-Jun phosphorylation and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-1 expression.

Protocol

Cell experiment: [1]

Cell lines

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC)

Preparation method

The solubility of this compound in DMSO is >10 mM. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while.Stock solution can be stored below -20°C for several months.

Reaction Conditions

0.01 μM, 28 days

Applications

TRAP positive and multi-nucleated osteoclasts were quantified by light microscopy after 28 days of MG-262 treatment. The used proteasome inhibitor was sufficient for significant inhibition of osteoclast formation, while the effects occurred in a dose-dependent manner. The differentiation was reduced to 27% for 0.01 μM and to 30% for 0.001 μM.

Animal experiment: [2]

Animal models

GFPdgn TG mice

Dosage form

Intravenous injection, 5 μmol/kg, 20 hours

Applications

The TG mice were injected with MG-262 or vehicle 20 h before the tissue samples were collected. MG-262 inhibited chymotryptic activity in the heart, lungs, skeletal muscle, and liver by 50–75%. GFPdgn protein abundance in all the major organs showed responsive increases upon systemic proteasomal inhibition induced by MG-262.

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.
