Niacinamide is a type of vitamin B3. It is a precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, which is well recognized as an electron transporter in oxidative phosphorylation and a cofactor for numerous dehydrogenases. It is metabolized by two enzyme systems. The first system begins with methylation of nicotinamide by nicotinamide N-methyltransferase, which can then be oxidized by aldehyde oxidase. The second enzyme system oxidizes nicotinamide to nicotinamide N-oxide [1]. A series of nicotinamide N-oxides were produced and proved to be novel, powerful and specific antagonists of the CXCR2 receptor. Compound 1 has been proven to efficiently block neutrophil chemotaxis (IC50=10 nM). Compound 2 is a selective antagonist of IL-8 binding (IC50=110 nM) and a powerful inhibitor of neutrophil chemotaxis (IC50=170 nM) [2].
1. In human liver microsome incubation systems: The formation of Nicotinamide N-oxide from nicotinamide was predominantly catalyzed by CYP2E1; the reaction was inhibited by specific CYP2E1 inhibitors (e.g., 4-methylpyrazole) in a concentration-dependent manner, while inhibitors of other CYP isozymes (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4) showed no significant inhibitory effect on the formation of Nicotinamide N-oxide; recombinant CYP2E1 enzyme could efficiently catalyze the N-oxidation of nicotinamide to produce Nicotinamide N-oxide with clear enzyme kinetic characteristics[1] 2. In CXCR2 receptor activity assays: 3-substituted nicotinamide N-oxide derivatives exhibited potent antagonistic activity against CXCR2; the lead compound (3-amino-6-chloronicotinamide N-oxide) showed an IC50 of 1.5 μM in CXCR2 binding assay and effectively inhibited CXCL8-induced calcium mobilization in CXCR2-expressing cells with IC50 of 2.2 μM, while the unsubstituted Nicotinamide N-oxide had weaker CXCR2 antagonistic activity[2] |
| Enzyme Assay |
1. CYP2E1-mediated nicotinamide N-oxidation assay: Prepare incubation mixtures containing human liver microsomes or recombinant CYP2E1 enzyme, nicotinamide substrate, NADPH-regenerating system, and different concentrations of CYP isozyme-specific inhibitors; incubate the mixtures at 37℃ for 10-60 min; terminate the reaction by adding ice-cold acetonitrile; centrifuge the mixture to remove proteins; separate and quantify Nicotinamide N-oxide and unmetabolized nicotinamide using high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection; calculate enzyme activity, inhibition rate and kinetic parameters (Km and Vmax) of the reaction[1]
2. CXCR2 receptor binding assay: Prepare membrane fractions from CXCR2-overexpressing cells; incubate the membrane preparations with radiolabeled CXCL8 ligand, different concentrations of Nicotinamide N-oxide or its derivatives, and buffer components at room temperature for 1 h; separate bound and free ligands by rapid filtration through glass fiber filters; wash the filters and determine radioactivity using a scintillation counter; calculate the IC50 values for competitive binding to CXCR2[2] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
1. In vitro metabolic source: Nicotinamide N-oxide is the main metabolite of nicotinamide in human liver microsomes, and its generation is entirely mediated by CYP2E1; the Km value of nicotinamide N-oxidation catalyzed by CYP2E1 is 125 μM, and the Vmax value is 1.2 nmol/min/mg protein [1].

| Additional Infomation |
Nicotinamide N-oxide belongs to the pyridine class of compounds.
1. Nicotinamide N-oxide is an endogenous metabolite generated in the human liver from the N-oxidation reaction of nicotinamide catalyzed by CYP2E1, and can also be used as a scaffold for the chemical synthesis of CXCR2 antagonists[1][2]. 2. 3-substituted nicotinamide N-oxide derivatives have been designed as CXCR2 antagonists for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, as CXCR2 is a key mediator of neutrophil recruitment in acute and chronic inflammation[2]. 3. CYP2E1 is the only CYP isoenzyme in the human liver responsible for the N-oxidation of nicotinamide, which distinguishes this metabolic pathway from other nicotinamide oxidation reactions[1]. |
