Product Description
Bromoenol lactone ((6E)-Bromoenol lactone) is an irreversible, potent and selective inhibitor of calcium-dependent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2β) with IC50 of about 7 μM, which inhibits antigen-stimulated mast cell exocytosis. function without preventing the influx of Ca2+.
BEL (Bromoenol lactone, CAS 88070-98-8) is an irreversible, potent, and selective inhibitor of calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2β) with an IC50 of approximately 7 μM. It is also known as HELSS (haloenol lactone suicide substrate). BEL inhibits antigen-stimulated mast cell exocytosis. The racemic BEL mixture demonstrates different isoform selectivity compared to its purified enantiomers (R)-BEL and (S)-BEL.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
BEL targets calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2β). It acts as an irreversible and selective inhibitor with an IC50 of approximately 7 μM. It also inhibits Mg-dependent phosphatidate phosphatase (PAP). The (R)-BEL and (S)-BEL enantiomers exhibit approximately 10-fold selectivity for iPLA2γ and iPLA2β, respectively.
ln Vitro
RBL 2H3 and mast cells generated from bone marrow require Ca2+ entrance in order to undergo exocytosis (BMMC). When stimulated with the Ca2+ ionophore A23187, which passively transfers Ca2+ along the concentration gradient, as well as in permeabilized mast cells where Ca2+ entrance is no longer significant, bromoenolactone suppresses exocytosis. Moreover, bromoenolide very slightly affects the release of internal stores and prolonged increases in Ca2+ influx that are part of the Ca2+ signaling pathway that is triggered by antigens or thapsigargin [1].
In vitro, BEL inhibits iPLA2β with an IC50 of approximately 7 μM. It inhibits antigen-stimulated mast cell exocytosis. It also inhibits Mg-dependent PAP. These in vitro activities confirm its profile as a potent and selective iPLA2 inhibitor. Its effects on iPLA2 activity and mast cell function have been demonstrated in various assays.
ln Vivo
In vivo, BEL is used as a research tool to study the role of iPLA2 in various physiological and pathological processes. However, specific details of in vivo efficacy studies are not extensively detailed in the available literature. The compound is primarily used in in vitro and ex vivo research settings. Its in vivo effects are related to its inhibition of iPLA2.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme assay for BEL measures its ability to inhibit iPLA2 activity. These cell-free assays use purified iPLA2 and a substrate such as arachidonoyl-thio-PC. The compound's inhibitory potency (IC50) is determined by measuring the reduction in enzyme activity. BEL shows an IC50 of approximately 7 μM for iPLA2β.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for BEL assess its effects on iPLA2-mediated cellular functions. Mast cells are treated with BEL, and antigen-stimulated exocytosis is measured. Other cell types can be used to assess the effects of iPLA2 inhibition on various cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis, and lipid metabolism.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for BEL are conducted to assess the role of iPLA2 in various disease models. However, specific details of these studies are not extensively detailed in the available literature. The compound is primarily used as a research tool in cell-based and biochemical studies. Its in vivo pharmacokinetics and toxicity are not well-characterized.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Specific pharmacokinetic data for BEL are not extensively detailed in the available literature. As a research compound, its pharmacokinetic properties such as absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion are not well-characterized. The compound is primarily used in in vitro research settings. Its pharmacokinetic profile would be important for its development as a therapeutic agent.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicity data for BEL are not extensively detailed in the available literature. As an irreversible inhibitor of iPLA2, its toxicity profile is likely related to its mechanism of action. However, preclinical toxicology studies would be required to assess its safety margin. The compound is intended for research use only and is not for human use.
