A MDA-MB-231, U87, LBT005, CME038 and NS/CT-2A cells were pre-incubated with vehicle (baseline) or 100 µM pan-selective Hsp90 inhibitors (block), followed by 250 kBq/mL [ 11 C]HSP990. Data are shown as %applied radioactivity bound to 1 × 10 5 cells B MDA-MB-231 and U87 cells were pre-incubated with 100 µM isoform-selective Hsp90 inhibitors (block): iHsp90α (A1, A2), iHsp90β (B1, B2), iGRP94 (C1, C2, PU-WS-13) and iTRAP1 (D3). Data are normalized to the baseline control conditions. Data in A-B are presented as mean ± SD, with individual values shown as dots C MDA-MB-231 and U87 cells were subjected to the DsiRNA-induced KD of Hsp90α, Hsp90β KD, or both isoforms 48 h before tracer incubation D B max values were calculated from saturation binding curves obtained by incubating MDA-MB-231 and U87 Hsp90 KD cells with increasing concentrations of [ 3 H]HSP990 E Hsp90α/β protein levels following DsiRNA KD were determined by WB and expressed as %KD. Data in C–E are normalized to the negative control and presented as mean ± SD; statistics: P ≤ 0.05 (*), P ≤ 0.01 (**), P ≤ 0.001 (***), P < 0.0001 (****), in ( A) , ( C), (D), (E) , P < 0.0001 for all treatments compared to control, unless otherwise specified
Article Snippet: The reference compound HSP990, ( R )-2-amino-7-(4-fluoro-2-(6-methoxypyridin-2-yl)phenyl)-4-methyl-7,8-dihydropyrido[4,3- d ]pyrimidin-5( 6H )-one, other Hsp90 inhibitors, including Onalespib, PU-H71, PU-WS13 and TAS-116, and HDAC6 inhibitor ACY-775 were purchased from commercial suppliers (Biorbyt, Selleckchem Chemicals, MedChem Express or CSNpharm), analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC–MS) and/or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to confirm their identity and used without further purification.
