It reduces mitochondrial membrane potential in senescent cells, causes apoptosis and affects mitochondrial morphology.MitoTam iodide suppresses respiratory complexes (CI-respiration) and disrupts respiratory supercomplexes (SCs) formation in breast cancer cells.


MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide (CAS#: 1634624-73-9) is a mitochondria-targeted tamoxifen derivative that acts as an electron transport chain (ETC) inhibitor with anticancer activity. This compound is designed to selectively disrupt mitochondrial function in cancer cells. It reduces mitochondrial membrane potential in senescent cells and affects mitochondrial morphology. The molecular weight is 905.82 with formula C₅2H₆0Br2NOP. The compound shows strong anticancer activity with minimal effects on normal cells.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide targets the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC), specifically inhibiting respiratory complex I (CI-respiration) and disrupting respiratory supercomplexes (SCs) formation in breast cancer cells. By inhibiting ETC function, the compound disrupts mitochondrial bioenergetics. The triphenylphosphonium moiety facilitates accumulation in mitochondria, enabling selective targeting of cancer cell mitochondria while minimizing effects on normal cells.
ln Vitro
With an IC50 range of 0.65 μM to 55.9 μM, MitoTam (0.5 μM-56 μM; 24 hours) kills nonmalignant cells and breast cancer cell lines[1]. When compared to mock MCF7 cells, MitoTam (2.5 μM; 2-24 hours) causes a greater activation of the apoptotic pathway in MCF7 Her2 high cells[1]. Breast cancer cells undergo a concentration-dependent activation of apoptosis upon exposure to MitoTam (0.05 μM-1 μM; 3 days); non-malignant breast epithelial cells were unaffected[2].
MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide demonstrates potent in vitro anticancer activity. It suppresses respiratory complexes and disrupts respiratory supercomplexes formation in breast cancer cells. The compound kills breast cancer cell lines and non-malignant cells at concentrations ranging from 0.5-56 microM. MitoTam results in stronger activation of the apoptotic pathway in MCF7 Her2high cells compared with mock MCF7 cells. The compound shows selectivity for cancer cells.
ln Vivo
When compared to control mice, MitoTam (intraperitoneal injection; 2 μg/g; once a week; 4 weeks) reduces the amount of β-gal staining in the lungs of the mice treated with it. This is accompanied by a suppression of the expression of senescence markers p16Ink4a, p21waf1, and PAI [2]. MitoTam, an intraperitoneal injection administered twice a week for two weeks at a dose of 0.54 μmol/mouse, reduces syngeneic tumor growth by 80%[1]. MitoTam, an intraperitoneal injection administered twice a week for two weeks at a concentration of 0.25 μmol/mouse, suppresses Her2high carcinomas, causing them to shrink three times their initial size and eventually disappear[1].
In vivo, MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide demonstrates anticancer activity as a mitochondria-targeted therapeutic agent. The compound's mechanism involves disruption of mitochondrial function in cancer cells, leading to reduced tumor growth. It shows strong anticancer activity with minimal effects on normal cells. The compound is widely used in studies of mitochondrial metabolism and cancer therapeutics. As a tamoxifen derivative, it may share some pharmacological properties with tamoxifen.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for MitoTam bromide, hydrobromide typically involve assessment of mitochondrial respiratory complex activity. Complex I activity is measured spectrophotometrically by following NADH oxidation. Respiratory supercomplex formation is assessed by Blue Native PAGE (BN-PAGE) followed by in-gel activity staining or Western blotting. Mitochondrial membrane potential is measured using fluorescent probes such as JC-1 or TMRM.
