Product Overview
WEHI-539 is a small-molecule inhibitor of BCLXLwith an IC50 value of 1.1 nM. WEHI-539 was designed as a BCL-XLinhibitor with high affinity. It interacted the with the binding groove of BCL-XLwith a Kd value of 0.6 nM. In MEF cells lacking MCL-1, WEHI-539 induced apoptosis which was evidenced by the release of mitochondrial cytochrome cand caspase-3 processing. In BCL-XLoverexpressed MEF cells, WEHI-539 showed EC50 value of 0.48 μM. WEHI-539 also significantly induced apoptosis of the platelets purified from mice. Besides that, WEHI-539 can not kill MEF cells lacking BAK because the cell death mediator BAK is regulated by BCL-XLand MCL-1.
