GW8510 is a small molecule compound that acts as a selective inhibitor of the cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) enzyme. CDK5 is a serine/threonine protein kinase that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including neuronal function, cell cycle regulation, and cytoskeletal dynamics. GW8510 is primarily used in research applications to study the biological functions and signaling pathways associated with CDK5.

Anticancer Drug Screening in Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human colon cancer cell lines (HCT116, RKO, SW403, and SW620), and breast cancer cell lines (MCF7) were obtained from ATCC (American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA) and maintained as suggested by ATCC. The growth media for all cell lines were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 50 units/ml of penicillin and streptomycin, and incubated at 37°C with 5% carbon dioxide. In experiments, cells were treated with ethanol, water or DMSO as corresponding vehicle control. Phenoxybenzamine, GW-8510, etacrynic acid, ginkgolide A, triflusal, imipenem, 6-azathymine were purchased from Santa cruz (CA). Phthalylsulfathiazole was purchased from Sigma (St. Louis, MO). Phenoxybenzamine, phthalylsulfathiazole, etacrynic acid, ginkgolide were dissolved in ethanol. Imipenem was dissolved in water. The remaining drugs were dissolved in Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).

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.
