Tenovin-1

Non disponible en dehors du Royaume-Uni et de l'Irlande

General description

A cell-permeable benzoylthiourea compound that acts as a reversible inhibitor of class III HDAC sirtuins (IC₅₀ against SirT2 ~10 µM). Based on studies using the more soluble analog Tenovin-6, Tenovin-1 is expected not to compete with substrate binding and display lower potency against SirT1/3 (IC₅₀ = 21/67 µM using Tenovin-6). Tenovin-1 (10 µM) up-regulates cellular p53 protein, but not mRNA, level in MCF-7 (≥6-fold in 6 h), presumably by blocking mdm2-mediated p53 degradation. Two day Tenovin-1 treatment (10 µM) results in selective killing of cancer cells with functional p53, but not p53-lacking cancer cells or normal human dermal fibroblasts. Despite its low aqueous solubility, administration of Tenovin-1 suspension is shown to effectively reduce BL2 and ARN8 xenographs in mice in vivo (≥50% reduction with 92 mg/kg daily i.p.).
