| Targets |
FINO-2 targets glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), an enzyme that plays a critical role in protecting cells against oxidative damage by reducing lipid hydroperoxides. FINO-2 indirectly inhibits GPX4 and oxidizes iron, decreasing GPX4 activity and protein levels in vitro. It causes extensive lipid peroxidation, leading to ferroptotic cell death.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In HT-1080 cells, FINO2 (10 µM; 24 hours) causes ferroptosis and demonstrates an iron-dependent lipid peroxidation [1].
In vitro, FINO-2 is a potent inducer of ferroptosis. It inhibits GPX4 activity, decreases GPX4 activity and protein levels, and causes extensive lipid peroxidation. FINO-2 functions as a stable oxidant, oxidizing ferrous iron and remaining stable at different pH values. It does not act as an active site, allosteric, or covalent inhibitor of GPX4. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, FINO-2 can be used to investigate the role of ferroptosis in neurodegenerative diseases and ischemia-reperfusion injury. As a ferroptosis-inducing compound, it may have potential for studying diseases associated with oxidative stress and iron-dependent cell death.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
FINO-2's GPX4 inhibition and ferroptosis-inducing activity can be characterized in cell-free and cell-based assays. The compound's ability to oxidize iron and cause lipid peroxidation can be measured using biochemical assays. GPX4 activity can be measured using standard enzyme assays with appropriate substrates.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell experiments with FINO-2 involve treating cells with the compound and assessing ferroptosis markers, including lipid peroxidation, iron accumulation, and cell death. The compound's effects on GPX4 activity and protein levels are measured. Cell viability is assessed using standard assays.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies with FINO-2 have been conducted to investigate the role of ferroptosis in neurodegenerative diseases and ischemia-reperfusion injury. The compound is typically administered via injection. Detailed protocols regarding dosage, treatment duration, and specific animal models are not extensively reported.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data specific to FINO-2 are limited in the available literature. As a small molecule with a molecular weight of 272.38 g/mol, the compound is expected to have reasonable bioavailability. Further pharmacokinetic studies are needed.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
FINO-2 is considered safe for research use at typical concentrations. As a research compound, it is intended for laboratory use only and not for human consumption. The compound should be handled under standard laboratory safety practices with appropriate precautions.

| Additional Infomation |
FINO2 is an oxaspirocyclic compound with the structure 1,2-dioxaspirocyclic[4.5]decane, substituted at positions 3, 3, and 8 with methyl, 2-hydroxyethyl, and tert-butyl groups, respectively (5S,8S-stereoisomers). It induces ferroptosis in cancer cells by indirectly inhibiting the enzymatic activity of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and directly oxidizes iron, leading to extensive lipid peroxidation. FINO2 exhibits a dual effect of inducing ferroptosis and antitumor activity. It is an oxaspirocyclic compound, an organic peroxide, a primary alcohol, and an organic heterobicyclic compound.
FINO-2 has a molecular formula of C₁₅H₂₈O₄ and a molecular weight of 272.38 g/mol. It is a potent ferroptosis-inducing compound that inhibits GPX4 activity. It functions as a stable oxidant, oxidizing ferrous iron and causing extensive lipid peroxidation. It can be used to investigate the role of ferroptosis in neurodegenerative diseases and ischemia-reperfusion injury. |
