CST, 13101S, NVP-BEZ235

Chemical Modulators for studying in the research area. Product Usage Information NVP-BEZ235 is supplied as a lyophilized powder. For a 10 mM stock, reconstitute the 5 mg in 1.065 ml DMF and warm to 75°C for 5 minutes. Working concentrations and length of treatment can vary depending on the desired effect, but it is typically used at 5 nM-500 nM for 2-24 hr. Storage Store lyophilized or in solution at -20ºC, desiccated. In lyophilized form, the chemical is stable for 24 months. Once in solution, use within 3 months to prevent loss of potency. Aliquot to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. Background NVP-BEZ235 is a selective and potent dual inhibitor of PI3 kinase and mTOR Ser/Thr protein kinase. Research studies show that NVP-BEZ235 reversibly inhibits the catalytic activity of these kinases by competing with ATP at the ATP-binding site (1,2). Studies demonstrate that NVP-BEZ235 has anti-proliferative characteristics and induces cell cycle arrest during G /G phase through inhibition of CDK4 and cyclin D3 (2,3). Alternate Names BEZ235; CDK4; cyclin D3; inhibitor; mTOR; NVP; PI3K
