MK-2206 dihydrochloride is a selective inhibitor of Akt1/2/3. MK-2206 inhibites the phosphorylation of Thr308 and Ser 473 of Akt. MK-2206 suppresses Akt signalling pathway and promoting cancer cell death as a single agent as well as in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents. MK-2206 enhance the sensitivity to through apoptosis and enhance the sensitivity to rapamycin via reactive oxygen species. Combination of MK-2206 with etoposide or rapamycin significantly increase antitumor growth effect.

Cell lines
Endometriotic stromal cells
Preparation method
The solubility of this compound in DMSO is >10 mM. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while.Stock solution can be stored below -20°C for several months.
Reaction Conditions
100 nM, 2h
Applications
Inhibiting AKT with MK-2206 or MEK1/2 with U0126 for 24 hours in the absence of R5020 increased total and nuclear PRA and PRB protein levels in OSIS but not in eutopic endometrial stromal cells from disease-free patients from disease-free patients. MK-2206 and R5020 decreased OSIS viability and increased apoptosis. Trends toward decreased volumes of sc grafted endometriosis tissues were demonstrated with MK-2206 and progesterone.
Animal models
5-week-old CD-1 nude mice
Dosage form
360 mg/kg/d, 15 days, oral Gavage
No significant interaction between MK-2206 and progesterone (P=0.628). Trends toward decreased tumor volume were noted with MK-2206 (P=0.077) and progesterone (P=0.087). Treatment with MK-2206 decreased levels of Ki67. Levels of cleaved caspase-3 (CC3) were very low in E and E +P-treated grafts, whereas MK-2206 increased CC3 levels, especially in the presence of P.
Other notes
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal.
