NMS-859 is a strong VCP inhibitor having IC50 values of 0.37 and 0.36 μM for wild-type VCP in the presence of 60 μM and 1 mM ATP in cells, respectively. NMS-859 has extremely little inhibitory action against VCPC522T. NMS-859 also reduces cell proliferation with IC50s of 3.5 μM and 3.0 μM in HCT116 and HeLa cell lines, respectively [1].

NMS-859 is a strong VCP inhibitor having IC50 values of 0.37 and 0.36 μM for wild-type VCP in the presence of 60 μM and 1 mM ATP in cells, respectively. NMS-859 has extremely little inhibitory action against VCPC522T. NMS-859 also reduces cell proliferation with IC50s of 3.5 μM and 3.0 μM in HCT116 and HeLa cell lines, respectively [1].
NMS-859 inhibited the proliferation of HCT116 and HeLa cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 3.5 µM and 3.0 µM, respectively. [1] Treatment of HCT116 cells with NMS-859 induced a dose-dependent accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins, stabilization of the VCP client proteins cyclin E and Mcl-1, and induction of the unfolded protein response (UPR) markers GRP78 and CHOP. It also promoted the lipidation of the autophagy marker LC3B and activated apoptosis, as evidenced by cleavage of caspase-3 and its target PARP. This biomarker modulation pattern recapitulated the phenotype observed with VCP siRNA knockdown and occurred at doses consistent with its antiproliferative IC50. [1] Mass spectrometry analysis confirmed that NMS-859 covalently modified endogenous VCP at Cys522 in HCT116 cells. [1] Expression of a VCPC522T mutant in 293 T-Rex cells rescued the cellular sensitivity to NMS-859 (shifting IC50 from 3.2 µM to 9.8 µM) and abrogated caspase induction, confirming the on-target mechanism. Transient transfection of HeLa cells with V5-tagged VCPC522T, but not wild-type VCP or a control protein, enriched the transfected cell population after NMS-859 treatment, further validating specificity. [1] NMS-859 (10 µM) showed minimal inhibition of NSF and no significant inhibition against a panel of other AAA ATPases (VPS4B, RuvBL1, SPATAS), HSP90, or 53 kinases, indicating high selectivity for VCP.

| Enzyme Assay |
Biochemical ATPase Activity Assay: The ATPase activity of recombinant, hexameric VCP was measured using a modified NADH-coupled assay. In the first step, VCP hydrolyzes ATP in the presence of an ATP-regenerating system (pyruvate kinase and phosphoenolpyruvate) to accumulate pyruvate stoichiometrically with ADP production. The reaction is then quenched with EDTA. In the second step, lactate dehydrogenase and NADH are added to convert the accumulated pyruvate to lactate, oxidizing NADH to NAD+. The decrease in NADH absorbance at 340 nm is measured and correlates with VCP ATPase activity. Inhibitor potency (IC50) was determined under these conditions. [1]
High-Throughput Screening (HTS) Assay: A miniaturized assay in 1,536-well format was used for primary screening. VCP was preincubated with compounds, and then ATP was added. ADP production was detected after 90 minutes using a Transcreener ADP fluorescence polarization (FP) assay. [1] |
| Cell Assay |
Cell Proliferation/Viability Assay: Cells (e.g., HCT116, HeLa) were seeded in 384-well plates. After 24 hours, cells were treated with serial dilutions of NMS-859 and incubated for 72 hours. Cell viability was then assessed by measuring intracellular ATP levels using a luciferase-based assay (CellTiter-Glo). IC50 values were calculated from dose-response curves. [1]
Immunoblot Analysis for Biomarker Modulation: Exponentially growing cells (e.g., HCT116) were seeded in plates and treated with NMS-859 for specified durations (e.g., 8h or 24h). Cells were lysed, and proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to membranes, and probed with specific antibodies against targets such as polyubiquitin, cyclin E, Mcl-1, GRP78, CHOP, LC3B, cleaved caspase-3, and cleaved PARP. Immunoreactive bands were visualized using chemiluminescence. [1] Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Cellular VCP Modification: HCT116 cells treated with NMS-859 were lysed, and proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE. The band corresponding to VCP (~90 kDa) was excised, subjected to in-gel digestion with trypsin, and the resulting peptides were analyzed by MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry. The peptide containing Cys522 was identified and sequenced to confirm the addition of the NMS-859 moiety (a 313 Da increase). [1] Rescue Experiment with VCPC522T Mutant: HeLa cells were transfected with plasmids expressing V5-tagged wild-type VCP, VCPC522T, or a control protein (survivin). After 48 hours, cells were treated with increasing doses of NMS-859 for another 48 hours. Cells were fixed, immunostained with an anti-V5 antibody and a fluorescent secondary antibody, and analyzed using a high-content imaging platform. The enrichment of V5-positive cells after treatment was quantified to assess specific rescue. [1] Inducible Rescue in 293 T-Rex Cells: A stable 293 T-Rex cell line with doxycycline-inducible expression of VCPC522T was generated. Cell viability upon NMS-859 treatment was compared between uninduced and induced states using a viability assay. Caspase induction was also assessed by immunoblotting. [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
NMS-859 is a VCP/p97 covalent inhibitor identified through high-throughput screening. [1]
Its mechanism of action is through covalent modification of cysteine 522 (Cys522) in the Walker A motif of the VCP D2 ATPase domain. This modification disrupts the local structure of the ATP-binding pocket, preventing ATP binding and hydrolysis, mimicking a regulatory oxidation mechanism. [1] Biochemical experiments show that the inhibitory effect of this compound is time-dependent, consistent with the covalent mechanism. It does not affect the hexameric oligomer state of VCP or the overall protein stability. [1] The regulatory pattern of NMS-859 on cancer cell biomarkers (accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins, UPR activation, apoptosis) is consistent with the results of VCP gene knockdown, which provides important validation for VCP as a cancer drug target.
