| Targets |
Dafadine-A targets DAF-9 (a cytochrome P450) and also inhibits the mammalian functional ortholog CYP27A1. [1]
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Dafadine-A (at 25 µM) induces a protruding vulva (Pvl) phenotype and distal-tip cell migration (Mig) defects in over 60% of wild-type worms.
In a HEK293-cell-based assay, dafadine-A at 20 µM reduced the production of 26-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one and Δ4-dafachronic acid by a factor greater than 20 (P < 0.05) in DAF-9-expressing cells. In wild-type worms treated with dafadine-A, reduced amounts of dafachronic acid were measured by LC/MS/MS compared to DMSO-treated controls. Dafadine-A treatment (at a concentration not specified in the main text, but used in L4 larval stage) extended the lifespan of wild-type worms by as much as 29% (P < 0.001). Dafadine-A did not increase the lifespan of daf-9 null mutants, consistent with its action through DAF-9 inhibition. Exogenously supplied dafachronic acid rescued the Daf-c and Mig phenotypes induced by dafadine-A. Dafadine-A inhibits the ability of mammalian CYP27A1 to metabolize 4-cholesten-3-one. Dafadine-A does not inhibit CYP7A1 or CYP7B1. [1] |
| ln Vivo |
Dafadine-A was tested for its ability to antagonize the recovery of daf-9-null mutants from the dauer state. Approximately 75% of daf-9(dh6) null mutants recovered from dauer over an 11-day period, and this recovery was not antagonized by dafadine-A (P > 0.05). [1]

| Enzyme Assay |
The enzymatic activity of DAF-9 was assessed using a HEK293-cell-based assay. DAF-9 was expressed in HEK293 cells, and the cells were treated with 20 µM 4-cholesten-3-one as substrate. The production of metabolites (26-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one and Δ4-dafachronic acid) was measured by liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). The addition of 20 µM dafadine-A reduced the production of these metabolites by a factor greater than 20 (P < 0.05) in DAF-9(+) cells. Metabolites were normalized for extraction efficiency relative to an internal standard (0.2% EtOH).
Absorbance spectroscopy was used to investigate physical interaction of dafadine-A with DAF-9. Dafadine-A (final concentration 5 µM) was added to Sf9-derived microsomes containing either a human oxidoreductase (HOR)-DAF-9 fusion protein or HOR control protein. A characteristic type 2 difference spectrum was observed with HOR-DAF-9 and dafadine-A, showing an absorption minimum at 407 nm and an absorption maximum at 435 nm, indicating binding to the heme iron. [1] |
| Cell Assay |
Wild-type C. elegans were raised in nonstressful, favorable environmental conditions on media containing increasing concentrations of dafadine-A (0 to 25 µM) to assess Daf-c and Mig phenotypes. For each concentration, four replicates were analyzed with at least 20 animals per replicate.
For epistatic analysis, null alleles of daf-16(m26), daf-12(m20), and din-1(dh127) were used. Worms were treated with dafadine-A (concentration not specified, but consistent with other experiments) and the fraction of worms with Daf-c or Mig phenotype was scored. At least three replicates and at least 90 animals per replicate were analyzed. For lifespan extension studies, worms were treated with dafadine-A at the fourth larval stage (L4). Lifespan was monitored, and dafadine-A treatment extended wild-type lifespan by up to 29% (P < 0.001). No details on solvent formulation, route, or exact concentration are provided in the main text.

| Additional Infomation |
Dafida A is an N-acylpiperidine compound formed by the condensation of the carboxyl group of 5-[(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)methyl]-1,2-oxazol-3-carboxylic acid with the secondary amino group of 4-(pyridin-4-yl)piperidine. It is a P450 inhibitor and an anti-aging drug. It belongs to the pyridine, N-acylpiperidine, isoxazole, aromatic ether, and aromatic amide classes of compounds.
Dafadine-A is the first small-molecule tool that robustly induces dauer formation in Caenorhabditis elegans under typical culture conditions. The Daf-c and Mig phenotypes induced by dafadine-A are completely suppressed by null mutations in daf-12 or din-1S but not by mutations in daf-16, indicating that dafadine-A acts downstream or parallel to DAF-16 but upstream or at the same level as DAF-12. Dafadine-A phenocopies the residual pharyngeal pumping phenotype and SDS sensitivity of daf-9 and daf-12 mutants. Dafadine-A contains an isoxazole substructure and binds to the Fe3+ in the heme pocket of DAF-9, displacing a water molecule required for catalytic activity, as evidenced by a type 2 spectrum in absorbance spectroscopy. Out of 59 inhibitors of mammalian cytochrome P450s tested, none induced Daf-c or Mig phenotype in wild-type worms at 12.5 µM, suggesting that dafadine-A is unique among CYP inhibitors in robustly inhibiting DAF-9 in wild-type worms. Dafadine-A was part of a structure-activity relationship study where 158 structurally related molecules were tested at 12.5 µM for ability to induce Daf-c and/or Mig phenotypes. Only three other molecules (dafadine-B, -C, -D) induced similar phenotypes in wild-type and daf-2(e1370) mutants. [1] |
