Description

PY-60 is a robust and specific activator of YAP transcriptional activity that targets annexin A2 (ANXA2) with a Kd of 1.4 µM. PY-60 directly binds to ANXA2 and antagonizes its normal cellular function of repressing YAP activity[1].

In Vitro

PY-60 targets ANXA2 to activate YAP[1].
PY-60, a thiazole-substituted derivative, dose-dependently induces luciferase activity in 293A-TEAD-LUC cells in the presence or absence of serum when cells were plated at high cell density (EC50= 1.5 and 1.6 μM, respectively). PY-60 treatment also dose-dependently promoted the association of YAP and TEAD proteins in cells and induced the nuclear localization of YAP in response to increased cell density. PY-60 robustly increases the levels of YAP-controlled transcripts (that is, ANRKD1, CYR61 and CTGF) in 293A cells and other human cell lines (that is, MCF10A, HEK293T, H69 and HaCaT), but did not augment the levels of YAP itself (YAP1)[1].
PY-60 activates a proproliferative, YAP-dependent transcriptional program in the adult animal capable of remodeling the epidermis through proliferation[1].
PY-60 liberates the ANXA2-YAP complex from the cell membrane and competes for ANXA2 binding of phosphoinositides[1].

* Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.98 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
