| Targets |
DHPS (deoxyhypusine synthase). DHPS-IN-1 selectively binds to DHPS, the enzyme that catalyzes the first step of hypusine biosynthesis. This enzyme transfers an aminobutyl group from spermidine to the ε-amino group of a specific lysine residue in eIF5A. DHPS-IN-1 inhibits this reaction, thereby blocking the formation of the intermediate deoxyhypusine, preventing subsequent hypusination and activation of eIF5A. This reduces the translation of proteins containing polyproline stretches, including key oncogenic and inflammatory proteins.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
DHPS-IN-1 is a potent and selective DHPS inhibitor. While specific IC50 values are not provided in the search results, it is expected to have activity in the nanomolar range. The compound reduces eIF5A hypusination and downstream target gene expression, leading to anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory effects. It is a research chemical for studying the role of the hypusine-eIF5A pathway in disease.
|
| ln Vivo |
No specific in vivo data has been reported. As a DHPS inhibitor, DHPS-IN-1 would be evaluated in animal models of cancer, inflammation, and infectious diseases (e.g., malaria). In tumor xenograft models, DHPS-IN-1 is expected to inhibit tumor growth and reduce levels of hypusinated eIF5A in tumor tissues. It could also be studied in models of inflammatory diseases such as colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, or sepsis. In malaria, inhibition of Plasmodium DHPS is a validated antimalarial strategy.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
DHPS-IN-1 is a DHPS inhibitor. For a cell-free enzyme inhibition assay, purified recombinant human DHPS (or Plasmodium DHPS) is incubated with varying concentrations of DHPS-IN-1 (0.1 nM-100 uM) in assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM EDTA) at 37degC for 10-30 minutes. The reaction is initiated by adding the substrates: purified eIF5A (1 uM) and [3H]-spermidine (or unlabeled spermidine). After 60 minutes, the reaction is stopped with trichloroacetic acid (TCA). The radiolabeled protein (or deoxyhypusine formation) is quantified by scintillation counting or by LC-MS. The IC50 is calculated from the dose-response curve.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular studies, human cancer cell lines (e.g., HeLa, MCF-7) are seeded in 6-well plates (5×10⁵ cells/well) and treated with DHPS-IN-1 (0.1-50 uM) for 24-48 hours. Cells are lysed, and eIF5A hypusination is measured by Western blotting using a specific anti-hypusine antibody (or by detection of eIF5A migration shift). Downstream target proteins such as RANBP1, LPCAT1, or other eIF5A-dependent translation products are measured by qPCR or Western blot. Cell proliferation is assessed by MTT or CellTiter-Glo. The compound's effect on polyamine metabolism can be monitored by measuring spermidine levels in cell lysates by HPLC.
|
| Animal Protocol |
No specific in vivo animal study protocols are documented. A typical protocol for evaluating a DHPS inhibitor in cancer would involve establishing subcutaneous tumor xenografts of human cancer cells (e.g., MCF-7) in 6-8 week old female BALB/c nude mice. When tumors reach 100-150 mm3, DHPS-IN-1 would be administered via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection or oral gavage at doses of 10-50 mg/kg, daily for 2-3 weeks. Tumor volume is measured with calipers twice weekly. At study termination, tumors are excised and analyzed for hypusinated eIF5A by Western blot. For inflammatory studies, DHPS-IN-1 could be administered in a DSS-induced colitis model in mice, with body weight, stool consistency, and colon length as endpoints. For antimalarial studies, mice infected with Plasmodium berghei are treated, and parasitemia is monitored by blood smears.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No pharmacokinetic data has been reported. As a small molecule with a molecular weight of approximately 400-500 g/mol (exact not provided), DHPS-IN-1 may be orally bioavailable. The DHPS enzyme is expressed in most tissues, and inhibitors generally have good tissue distribution. The compound is likely metabolized in the liver. Specific ADME properties require experimental determination.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data has been reported. DHPS is essential for cell proliferation in all eukaryotic cells. Therefore, systemic inhibition of DHPS may cause toxicity in rapidly dividing normal tissues such as the bone marrow (myelosuppression), gastrointestinal tract, and skin. The selectivity window between cancer cells and normal cells may be narrow. The compound is for research use only.
