| Targets |
Methylstat targets Jumonji C domain-containing histone demethylases (JHDMs), including JMJD2A (H3K9me3 and H3K36me3 demethylase), JMJD2E (H3K9me3 demethylase), and JMJD3 (H3K27me3 demethylase). It is a methyl ester prodrug of a JMJD inhibitor.

| ln Vitro |
Mmethylstat is non-cytotoxic to HUVEC at 1-2 µM and exhibits anti-proliferative action at 0-5 µM over 48 and 72 hours [1]. In the G0/G1 phase, mmethylstat (0, 1, 2 µM; 48 hours) dose-dependently promotes cell cycle arrest [1]. Mmethylstat (0, 1, 2 µM; 48 hours) inhibits the protein levels of cyclinD1, but enhances the expression of p53 mRNA, H3K27 methylation, and the accumulation of p53 and p21 [1]. Mmethylstat (0, 1, 2 µM) suppresses capillary formation during CAM (chick chorioallantoic membrane) growth and shows anti-angiogenic activity produced by VEGF, bFGF, and TNF-α in HUVEC cells. No symptoms of bleeding or thrombosis were seen. 1]. Mmethylstat dramatically promoted apoptosis in ARH77 and U266 cells (2.1, 4.2 mM for ARH77 cells, and 1.1, 2.2 mM for U266 cells; 72 hours) [2].
In vitro, Methylstat inhibits JHDM activity. It is non-cytotoxic to HUVEC at 1-2 µM and exhibits anti-proliferative action at 0-5 µM over 48 and 72 hours. It dose-dependently promotes cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase, inhibits cyclinD1 protein levels, and enhances p53 mRNA, H3K27 methylation, and p53/p21 accumulation. It shows anti-angiogenic activity in HUVEC cells. It promotes apoptosis in ARH77 and U266 cells. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Methylstat is a cell-permeable prodrug. It has shown anti-proliferative activity and low cytotoxicity. Detailed in vivo efficacy data including tumor growth inhibition and biomarker modulation are available in preclinical literature. Its prodrug nature suggests it is converted to the active form in cells.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for Methylstat typically involve measuring the inhibition of JHDM activity using demethylase assays. The enzyme is incubated with a substrate (methylated histone peptide) and varying concentrations of the compound. Demethylation is measured by mass spectrometry or antibody-based detection. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Selectivity over other demethylases is assessed.

In vivo animal experiments for Methylstat typically involve administration to tumor-bearing mice via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection. Tumor growth inhibition is monitored. Histone methylation levels in tumor tissues are assessed by Western blot or immunohistochemistry. Pharmacokinetic parameters are evaluated by measuring compound levels in blood and tissues. Toxicity is assessed by monitoring body weight and organ histology.
