SIRT1[1].
SIRT1 (Sirtuin 1). BML-278 is a SIRT1 activator with an EC150 (or EC50) of 1 μM. It displays selectivity over SIRT2 (EC50 = 25 μM) and SIRT3 (EC50 = 50 μM). SIRT1 is a NAD+-dependent deacetylase involved in aging, metabolism, and cell survival. Activation of SIRT1 has implications for longevity and metabolic health. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
BML-278 activates SIRT1 deacetylase activity with an EC150 of 1 μM. It increases H3K9 methylation and inhibits H3K9 acetylation in paternal and maternal pronuclei. The compound arrests primary human mesenchymal cells in G1/S phase and reduces senescence. BML-278 reduces tubulin acetylation in U937 cells. These activities demonstrate its cellular effects as a SIRT1 activator.
|
| ln Vivo |
BML-278 improves early embryonic development in model systems. It arrests the cell cycle of primary human mesenchymal cells in G1/S phase and reduces senescence. The compound increases H3K9 methylation and inhibits H3K9 acetylation in paternal and maternal pronuclei. These in vivo-like effects support its utility in developmental and aging research.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for SIRT1 activation are performed using recombinant SIRT1 enzyme, a fluorogenic acetylated peptide substrate, and NAD+. BML-278 is incubated at varying concentrations (typically 0.1–100 μM) with the enzyme and substrate. Deacetylation is detected by fluorescence. EC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Selectivity against SIRT2 and SIRT3 is determined using the same assay format with the respective enzymes.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cells (e.g., primary human mesenchymal cells, U937 cells, or embryonic cells) are cultured and treated with BML-278 at concentrations ranging from 0.1–10 μM for 24–72 hours. SIRT1 activation is assessed by measuring acetylation of SIRT1 substrates (e.g., H3K9, tubulin) by Western blot. Cell cycle analysis is performed by flow cytometry. Senescence is evaluated by beta-galactosidase staining. Embryonic development is assessed by morphological criteria.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for BML-278 have been conducted in embryonic development models. For cell cycle and senescence studies, primary human mesenchymal cells are used as an ex vivo model. Detailed in vivo protocols in animal models have not been extensively reported. Standard protocols for SIRT1 activator studies could be adapted for future in vivo experiments.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for BML-278 are limited. The compound is cell-permeable, indicating favorable membrane penetration. It has a molecular weight of 391.46 and formula C24H25NO4. In vivo PK parameters such as half-life, bioavailability, and tissue distribution have not been extensively characterized. For in vivo use, formulation would need to be developed.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicology data for BML-278 have not been published. The compound is for research use only and not approved for human therapeutic applications. No systematic toxicological evaluation has been performed. Standard safety precautions for handling chemical activators should be observed.
