| Targets |
H-Leu-ol targets aminopeptidases as a competitive inhibitor with a Ki of 17 μM. As a leucine-derived amino alcohol, it also serves as a chiral building block for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure compounds. Its primary applications are in organic synthesis and as a research tool for studying aminopeptidase function.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, H-Leu-ol acts as a competitive aminopeptidase inhibitor with a Ki of 17 μM. Amino acid derivatives have been commercially used as ergogenic supplements, influencing anabolic hormone secretion, fuel availability, mental performance, and prevention of muscular damage. H-Leu-ol's utility extends to chiral synthesis and pharmaceutical research.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity data for H-Leu-ol as a standalone compound is not extensively reported. As an aminopeptidase inhibitor, it may affect peptide metabolism and protein turnover in vivo. Compounds synthesized using this chiral building block may be evaluated in animal models for therapeutic applications.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme inhibition assays for H-Leu-ol involve measuring its inhibition of aminopeptidase activity. Purified aminopeptidase is incubated with the compound at various concentrations in appropriate buffer with substrate. Enzyme activity is measured by fluorometric or spectrophotometric detection of released product. Ki values are calculated from dose-response curves. IC50 and Ki = 17 μM.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell-based protocols for H-Leu-ol are not well established as it is primarily a synthetic building block. Aminopeptidase inhibition can be studied in cell lysates or intact cells using fluorogenic substrates. Cells are treated with H-Leu-ol at various concentrations, and aminopeptidase activity is measured. Concentrations typically range from 1-100 µM for 1-24 hours.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal study protocols for H-Leu-ol would depend on the specific application. If used as a building block for drug candidates, standard PK/PD studies would apply. The compound itself may be administered to study aminopeptidase inhibition in vivo, with blood and tissue samples collected for analysis of enzyme activity and compound levels.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (21.33 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (21.33 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
