Product Description
Fumagillol is the direct precursor of fumagillin. Fumagillin, an antimicrobial active molecule, is a potent and specific inhibitor of angiogenesis.
Fumagillol (CAS#: 108102-51-8, molecular weight 282.38, molecular formula C16H26O4) is a sesquiterpenoid natural compound derived from the fermentation of Aspergillus fumigatus. It is a direct precursor of the potent angiogenesis inhibitors TNP-470 and fumagillin. Fumagillol is an inhibitor of methionyl aminopeptidase 2 (METAP2) with an IC50 of 230 nM for the human enzyme. It exhibits anti-angiogenic, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial activities. The compound is a spirocyclic epoxide and secondary alcohol.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Fumagillol targets methionyl aminopeptidase 2 (METAP2), a key enzyme involved in protein processing. METAP2 removes the N-terminal methionine from newly synthesized proteins, a critical step in protein maturation. By inhibiting METAP2 with an IC50 of 230 nM, fumagillol disrupts this process, leading to its anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor effects. The compound's activity against METAP2 is central to its diverse biological activities.
ln Vitro
On CHO cells, fumagillol derivatives do not appear to have any cytotoxic effects [1].
In vitro, fumagillol inhibits methionyl aminopeptidase 2 (METAP2) with an IC50 of 230 nM for the human enzyme. Fumagillol derivatives have no significant cytotoxic effect on CHO cells. The compound's anti-angiogenic activity is mediated through its inhibition of METAP2, which affects endothelial cell proliferation and migration. Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activities have also been demonstrated in various in vitro systems.
ln Vivo
In vivo, fumagillol exhibits anti-angiogenic, anti-tumor, and anti-inflammatory properties. As a precursor to fumagillin and TNP-470, its in vivo effects are related to its conversion to these active compounds. Fumagillin is a potent and selective inhibitor of angiogenesis. The compound's activity against parasites has also been observed. Its in vivo efficacy has been demonstrated in various preclinical models.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for fumagillol involve measuring the inhibition of methionyl aminopeptidase 2 (METAP2) activity using purified enzyme preparations. The compound is incubated with METAP2 and a peptide substrate, and the removal of the N-terminal methionine is measured using HPLC or mass spectrometry. The IC50 value of 230 nM is determined from dose-response curves. Selectivity against other aminopeptidases can be assessed using similar assays.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for fumagillol involve treating endothelial cells or cancer cells with the compound to assess its anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor effects. Cell proliferation is measured using MTT or similar assays. Endothelial tube formation assays assess the compound's ability to inhibit angiogenesis. The compound's effects on cell viability and signaling pathways are studied in various cell lines. Fumagillol derivatives show no significant cytotoxic effect on CHO cells.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for fumagillol are typically conducted using its active derivatives, fumagillin or TNP-470. These compounds have been studied in various tumor xenograft models to assess their anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor efficacy. The compounds are administered via injection, and tumor growth inhibition is monitored. Efficacy endpoints include tumor volume reduction and assessment of angiogenesis markers.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Fumagillol has a molecular weight of 282.38 and a molecular formula of C16H26O4. It is a sesquiterpenoid with a spirocyclic epoxide structure. The compound is soluble in chloroform, ethanol, and methanol. It is a solid with a purity of ≥95%. It is typically stored at -20°C and shipped at room temperature. Its formal name is (3R,4S,5S,6R)-.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicity data for fumagillol is not extensively reported. As a precursor to potent angiogenesis inhibitors, its safety profile is related to its effects on endothelial cell function. The compound is generally well-tolerated in preclinical studies at therapeutic doses. Comprehensive toxicological studies would be required for therapeutic development. Standard safety precautions should be taken when handling the compound.
