Product Description
BOS-318 is a potent, slowly dissociating, selective, cell-penetrating/penetrable Furin inhibitor (antagonist) with IC50 of 1.9 nM. BOS-318 protects ENaC from neutrophil elastase activation. BOS-318 may be utilized in the research/study of CF lung disease.
BOS-318 (CAS#: 2387633-15-8) is a potent, slowly dissociating, highly selective, and cell-permeable furin inhibitor with an IC50 value of 1.9 nM. It protects epithelial sodium channels (ENaC) from subsequent activation by neutrophil elastase and is being investigated for cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease therapy.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Furin is a proprotein convertase that activates numerous pathogenic proteins. BOS-318 is a furin inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.9 nM and also inhibits endogenous proteases in U2OS cells with an IC50 of 23.5 nM. It has the characteristics of slow dissociation, high selectivity, and cell permeability, making it effective at inhibiting furin both in biochemical and cellular contexts.
ln Vitro
BOS-318 (0.001–1 μM, 72 hours) offers cytoprotection against CuFi-1 cytotoxicity caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A (PEA) [1]. The furin-resistance of BOS-318 (U2OS cells) is roughly 13 times more than that of PCSK5 (IC50 = 25.3 nM), 24 times greater than that of PCSK7 (IC50 = 45.8 nM), and 110 times greater than that of PCSK6 (IC50 = 209.4 nM). [1]. NE and CF sputum sol-mediated ENaC activation is inhibited by BOS-318 (0.3 μM, 2 hours or 48 hours) and ENaC-mediated Na+ uptake in CF HBEC is decreased [1].
BOS-318 (0.03-1 microM, 72 hours) protects PEA- and CuFi-1 cells from the toxic effects of bacterial toxins activated by furin. In CuFi-1 cells treated with PEA, cell viability was approximately 2% of control levels. A single 0.3 microM dose of BOS-318 significantly increased cell viability to approximately 88% of control levels, demonstrating its potent protective effect against furin-activated toxins.
ln Vivo
No detailed in vivo activity data for BOS-318 are provided in the reference sources beyond in vitro studies. The compound is being developed for cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease and would likely be tested in animal models of CF lung inflammation, such as beta-ENaC-overexpressing mice or P. aeruginosa infection models, with oral or intratracheal administration.
Enzyme Assay
Furin enzymatic activity is measured using a synthetic peptide substrate containing the furin cleavage sequence (e.g., pERTKR-pNA). For BOS-318, a typical enzyme assay involves incubating 2 nM furin with increasing concentrations of BOS-318 at pH 7.5, adding the fluorescent/colorimetric substrate (5 microM), and monitoring cleavage product formation over time. The IC50 is calculated from dose-response curves.
Cell Assay
Cell Viability Assay[1]
Cell Types: CuFi-1 Cell
Tested Concentrations: 17.4 and 263.0 nM
Incubation Duration: 2 and 48 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Significant inhibition of ENaC measured in differentiated human bronchial epithelial cells at two short concentration conditions mediated Na+ transport (IC50= 263.0 nM) and long-term (IC50= 17.4 nM) treatment conditions.

Cell viability assay[1]
Cell Types: CuFi-1 Cell
Tested Concentrations: 0.3 μM
Incubation Duration: 72 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Cell viability in PEA-treated cells increased Dramatically to approximately 88% of control levels.

Cytotoxicity assay[1]
Cell Types: CuFi-1 Cell
Tested Concentrations: 0.001, 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3 and 1 μM
Incubation Duration: 72 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Provides PEA-mediated cytotoxicity against PEA in a dose-dependent manner over time Toxicity protection for 72 hrs (hours) with EC50 of 47.8 nM.
PEA and CuFi-1 cells are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with BOS-318 at concentrations of 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, and 1 microM for 72 hours. After treatment, cell viability is monitored using MTS or CellTiter-Glo assays. The protective effect of BOS-318 against the toxic effects of furin-activated bacterial toxins is assessed by comparing viability of treated vs. control cells.
Animal Protocol
No detailed in vivo animal experimental protocols for BOS-318 are provided in the reference sources. In vivo studies would likely use beta-ENaC-overexpressing CF lung disease model mice or P. aeruginosa infection models. Dosing could be oral or intratracheal at 1-30 mg/kg daily for 1-4 weeks, with assessment of lung inflammation, bacterial clearance, and epithelial function.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
BOS-318 has a molecular weight of 571.5 and formula C28H32Cl2N6O3. It is soluble in DMSO (100 mg/mL, 174.97 mM). For in vivo studies, it can be formulated as a homogeneous suspension in CMC-Na (≥5 mg/mL) for oral administration. For injection, a 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% saline formulation can be used (2 mg/mL).
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No detailed toxicity data for BOS-318 are provided in the reference sources. The compound is for research use only. In vitro studies at concentrations up to 1 microM show that BOS-318 protects cells from toxin-induced death rather than causing cytotoxicity, suggesting a favorable safety profile in cell-based assays at the tested concentrations.
