Product Description
Hemipyocyanine (NSC-88882) is a novel and potent virulence factor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Hemipyocyanine (CAS#: 528-71-2) is a phenazine compound that is a metabolite of the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is a reduced form of pyocyanin, which is a virulence factor produced by P. aeruginosa. Hemipyocyanine has been studied for its biological activities, including its role in bacterial pathogenesis and its potential as an antimicrobial agent. The compound is also known as 1-hydroxyphenazine. It is used in research to study the mechanisms of bacterial infection and to develop new antimicrobial strategies.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Hemipyocyanine targets various cellular components and processes in both bacterial and eukaryotic cells. In bacteria, it acts as a redox-active compound that can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cause oxidative stress. Hemipyocyanine can also interact with cellular membranes and disrupt membrane integrity. In eukaryotic cells, the compound can modulate signaling pathways and induce apoptosis. The compound's effects are mediated through its ability to undergo redox cycling and generate ROS.
ln Vitro
In vitro, hemipyocyanine demonstrates antimicrobial activity against various bacterial species. It inhibits the growth of bacteria and can potentiate the activity of other antimicrobial agents. The compound also exhibits cytotoxic effects on eukaryotic cells, including human cell lines. Hemipyocyanine induces apoptosis in cancer cells and has been studied for its potential anticancer activity. The compound also modulates immune responses and has anti-inflammatory effects in certain contexts.
ln Vivo
In vivo, hemipyocyanine has been studied in animal models of infection and inflammation. In models of P. aeruginosa infection, the compound's role in pathogenesis has been investigated. In models of inflammation, hemipyocyanine has shown both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory effects, depending on the context. The compound's in vivo effects are complex and depend on the dose, route of administration, and the specific model used.
Enzyme Assay
Cell-free biochemical assays for hemipyocyanine involve measuring its redox activity and its ability to generate ROS. The compound's redox cycling can be assessed by measuring the reduction of electron acceptors such as cytochrome c or by using fluorescent probes for ROS detection. Its antimicrobial activity can be assessed by measuring the inhibition of bacterial growth or enzyme activity.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for hemipyocyanine use various cell types, including bacteria and eukaryotic cells. For antimicrobial studies, bacteria are treated with hemipyocyanine, and growth inhibition is measured by optical density or colony counting. For eukaryotic cell studies, cell lines are treated with hemipyocyanine, and cell viability is measured using MTT or CCK-8 assays. Apoptosis is assessed by flow cytometry or by measuring caspase activity. ROS production is measured using fluorescent probes.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for hemipyocyanine are conducted in models of infection and inflammation. In models of P. aeruginosa infection, animals are infected with the bacterium, and the role of hemipyocyanine in pathogenesis is assessed by comparing the effects of wild-type and mutant strains. In inflammation models, animals are treated with hemipyocyanine, and inflammatory markers and tissue damage are assessed.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Hemipyocyanine has a molecular formula of C₁₂H₈N₂O and a molecular weight of 196.20. It is a phenazine compound that is a metabolite of P. aeruginosa. The compound is soluble in organic solvents and has moderate solubility in aqueous solutions. Its pharmacokinetic properties are not well characterized, but as a small molecule, it would be expected to be absorbed and distributed to various tissues.
