AhR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor). CYP2E1 (transcription inhibition).

| ln Vitro |
Mivotilate is a strong, non-toxic aryl hydrocarbon receptor agonist. Histidine 285 mutation to tyrosine is tolerated by the new activation method of movitilate (YH439) [1]. Mivotilate activates the aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor to promote cytochrome P4501A1/2 (CYP1A1/2) [3].
Mivotilate is a non-toxic and potent activator of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). It has a novel activation mode that tolerates mutation of histidine 285 to tyrosine. Mivotilate causes induction of cytochromes P4501A1/2 (CYP1A1/2) through the Ah receptor. It functions as a hepatoprotective agent. In vitro studies have characterized its ability to activate AhR and induce CYP1A1/2 expression. |
| ln Vivo |
In rats, CYP2E1-mediated NDMA demethylase activity can be decreased by mivotilate (YH439, 150 mg/kg, oral), although NADPH-dependent P450 oxidoreductase activity is unaffected. Immunoreactive CYP2E1 protein is quickly reduced by migratetilate (75–300 mg/kg). In rats, imivotilate (150 mg/kg, po) suppresses CYP2E1 transcription [2].
Mivotilate (150 mg/kg, p.o.) inhibits the transcription of CYP2E1 in rats. At doses of 75-300 mg/kg, it rapidly decreases immunoreactive CYP2E1 protein. Mivotilate (150 mg/kg, p.o.) reduces CYP2E1-mediated NDMA demethylase activity in rats without significantly affecting NADPH-dependent P450 oxidoreductase activity. These effects suggest a role for Mivotilate in modulating drug metabolism and protecting the liver from CYP2E1-mediated toxicity. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme assay for AhR activation uses a cell-based reporter system where AhR activation drives expression of a reporter gene (e.g., luciferase). Cells (e.g., HepG2 or HEK293) are transfected with an AhR-responsive luciferase reporter plasmid and treated with varying concentrations of Mivotilate (typically 0.1 to 100 µM) for 24 hours. Luciferase activity is measured and compared to vehicle control. CYP1A1/2 enzyme activity is measured using the ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) assay, where CYP1A1/2 converts ethoxyresorufin to resorufin, a fluorescent product.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays are performed using hepatocytes or hepatoma cell lines (e.g., HepG2). Cells are treated with Mivotilate at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 µM for 24-48 hours. CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 mRNA levels are measured by qRT-PCR. CYP1A1/2 enzyme activity is measured using the EROD assay. AhR activation is confirmed by measuring nuclear translocation of AhR using immunofluorescence or by measuring expression of AhR target genes (e.g., CYP1A1, CYP1A2). Cytotoxicity is assessed using MTT or LDH release assays to confirm the non-toxic nature of the compound.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies are performed using rats. Mivotilate is administered orally at doses of 75-300 mg/kg. Liver tissue is collected at various time points (e.g., 4-24 hours post-dose) for analysis. CYP2E1 protein levels are measured by Western blot or immunohistochemistry. CYP2E1 enzyme activity is measured using NDMA demethylase assays. NADPH-dependent P450 oxidoreductase activity is measured as a control to assess selectivity. Blood samples are collected for pharmacokinetic analysis.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Mivotilate has a molecular weight of 330.45 g/mol and molecular formula C12H14N2O3S3. It is soluble in DMSO (12.5 mg/mL) and corn oil (5 mg/mL). The compound should be stored as a powder at -20°C. Oral bioavailability and detailed pharmacokinetic parameters have been characterized in rats. Mivotilate is administered orally at doses of 75-300 mg/kg in preclinical studies. It is stable under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C for long-term storage.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Mivotilate is reported to be non-toxic. As a research compound, it has been evaluated in preclinical studies for hepatoprotective activity. Standard toxicology assessments would include acute and repeated-dose toxicity studies in rodents. The compound's non-toxic profile makes it a valuable tool for studying AhR biology and CYP2E1 regulation without the confounding effects of toxicity. It is for research use only and not for human therapeutic use.
