Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Rimiducid, also known as AP1903, is a lipid-permeable bivalent "dimerizer" drug that binds FKBP and induces Fas cross-linking. AP1903 induced iCasp9 activation, which led to the apoptosis of specific undifferentiated PSCs in vitro and in vivo. AP1903 elicites potent and dose-dependent apoptosis of cells in culture expressing dimerizer-dependent Fas constructs, with an EC50 of ≈0.1 nM. Intravenous administration of AP1903 produces cross-linking of the drug-binding domains of this chimeric protein, which in turn dimerizes caspase9 and activates the downstream executioner caspase 3 molecule, resulting in cellular apoptosis. NOTE: Rimiducid (AP1903) exists as a single diastereomer and a mixture of rotamer as seen in NMR and HPLC analytical reports.

More Info
AP1903 was discovered and developed by ARIAD scientists, as a part of ARIADÂ’s ARGENT™ technology platform which combines chemistry and genetics to allow specific cell-signaling and gene-expression events to be chemically activated in whole animals and cultured cells. The technology platform includes a portfolio of distinct small-molecule "dimerizer" compounds optimized for specific applications. Dimerizers bring specific proteins together in cells.   (source: http://www.ariad.com/wt/tertiarypage/AP1903).         
Biological target:
Rimiducid (AP1903) is a dimerizer agent that acts by cross-linking the FKBP domains.
In vitro activity:
The induction of iCasp9 depends on the administration of the small molecule dimerizer drug AP1903 and dimerization results in rapid induction of apoptosis in transduced cells, preferentially killing activated cells expressing high levels of transgene. Reference: Front Pharmacol. 2014 Oct 28;5:235. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25389405/
In vivo activity:
Over 3 consecutive days, this study implanted these cells i.m. into nude mice, treated the animals i.v. with various doses of AP1903, and then determined serum hGH levels as a measure of the number of surviving cells. Fig. Fig.5B shows that AP1903 elicited a dose-dependent decrease in serum hGH levels, with a half-maximal effective dose of 0.4 ± 0.1 mg/kg. Thus, the bumped dimerizer retains potent activity in vivo, indicating that the remodeled interface is functional in a whole animal context.
