Clear solution
5% DMSO 95% Corn oil
0.41mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 8.2 mg/ml clear DMSO stock solution to 950 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
5.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 100 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description AZ20 is a novel potent and selective inhibitor of ATR kinase with IC50 of 5 nM in a cell-free assay, 8-fold selectivity over mTOR.
Targets
ATR [2]
(Cell-free assay)		 mTOR [2]
(Cell-free assay)
5 nM 38 nM
In vitro AZ20 shows good selectivity against all of the PI3K isoforms together with ATM and DNA-PK. [2] In vitro, AZ20 decreases pChk1 Ser345, pChk1 Ser317 and pChk1 Ser296 levels in a concentration-dependent manner. Prolonged exposure with AZ20 increases γH2AX pan-nuclear staining, indicative of replication stress. This is associated with S-phase arrest and increase in phospho-histone H3. AZ20 induces growth inhibition and cell death in vitro and its profile of activity is distinct from other cytotoxic agents. The cytotoxic effect of AZ20 can be increased in combination with the selective ATM inhibitor KU-60019. [1]
In vivo Female nude mice bearing LoVo tumors are treated with AZ20 orally at a dose of 25 mg/kg twice daily or 50 mg/kg once daily for 13 days, led to significant tumor growth inhibition. [2] This is associated with a persistent elevation of γH2AX pan-nuclear staining in xenograft tissue, but a transient increase in mouse bone marrow at therapeutic doses, suggesting a favourable therapeutic index. [1] AZ20 is assessed for drug−drug interaction (DDI) potential specifically from inhibition of cytochrome P450 enzymes. AZ20 is found to inhibit the cytochrome 3A4-mediated metabolism of midazolam by 50% at 10 μM. AZ20 has respectable bioavailability in a low dose rat PK study. [2]
Features ATR-selective inhibitor with high permeability and good stability.
