Mek inhibitor

Manufactured by Pfizer

The MEK inhibitor is a laboratory product that functions to inhibit the activity of the MEK enzyme. MEK is a key component of the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway, which plays a role in cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and survival. The MEK inhibitor can be used in research settings to study the effects of MEK inhibition on various biological systems.

Gamma Secretase Inhibitor Dosing Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Gamma secretase inhibitor (GSI,MRK-003; Merck) was made fresh weekly and dosed at 300 mg/kg in 0.5% methocel by oral gavage (Lewis et al., 2007 (link); Sparey et al., 2005 (link)). For pathology, we dosed mice once weekly for 4 weeks and sacrificed 6 hr after the last dose (n = 5 doses). For flow analysis, we dosed mice once weekly for 1 week and sacrificed mice 6 hr after the last dose (n = 2 doses). Fresh solution of L-NAME (L-NG-nitroarginine methyl ester, 100 μM in 1× PBS; Sigma-Aldrich) was administered daily at 0.4 mg/kg. For pathology and flow analysis, mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) daily for 7 days and sacrificed 6 hr after the last dose. MEK inhibitor (PD0325901; Pfizer) was made fresh weekly and dosed at 1.5 mg/kg/day in 0.5% methocel/0.2% Tween 80, by oral gavage. For pathology, we dosed mice every day for 3 weeks. For flow analysis, we dosed mice every day for 7 days and sacrificed 6 hr after the last dose.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
