Pepstatin A (NSC-272671; NSC272671), a pentapeptide, is a potent and selective aspartic protease inhibitor which also inhibits HIV replication. Pepstatin A was originally isolated from the microbe. For the enzymes hemoglobin-pepsin, hemoglobin-proctase, casein-pepsin, casein-proctase, casein-acid protease, and hemoglobin-acid protease, respectively, its IC50 values are 4.5 nM, 6.2 nM, 150 nM, 290 nM, 520 nM, and 260 nM. At weak acid pH values, pepstatinA, a highly potent renin inhibitor, inhibited both human and porcine renin with IC50 values of 15 μM and 0.32, respectively. For aspartic proteinases like pepsin, cathepsins D and E, pepstatin A effectively inhibits them. Pepstatin A appears to have no harmful effects on HIV-infected cells, but it does block a portion of the intracellular processing of the HIV gag protein in H9 cells that have the virus. By preventing ERK signaling and reducing NFATc1 expression, pepstatin A also prevents osteoclast differentiation.

Hemoglobin-pepsin (IC50 = 4.5 nM); Hemoglobin-proctase (IC50 = 6.2 nM); Casein-pepsin (IC50 = 150 nM); Hemoglobin-acid protease (IC50 = 260 nM); Casein-proctase (IC50 = 290 nM); Casein-acid protease (IC50 = 520 nM)

| ln Vitro |
Pepstatin A shows effectively inhibits aspartic proteinases, including cathepsins D and E and pepsin. Pepstatin A appears to have no harmful effects on HIV-infected cells, but it does block a portion of the intracellular processing of the HIV gag protein in H9 cells that have the virus.[1]
Pepstatin A laos inhibits NFATc1 expression and ERK signaling, which prevents osteoclasts from differentiating.[2] |
| ln Vivo |
Pepstatin A has a very low toxicity, with LD50s of >2000 mg/kg for all species when taken orally, and LD50s of 1090 mg/kg, 875 mg/kg, 820 mg/kg, and 450 mg/kg for mice, rats, rabbits, and dogs when taken intraperitoneally. Pepstatin A (0.5–50 mg/kg, p.o.) inhibits the pylorus-induced stomach ulceration in ligated Shay rats.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Pepstatin A is a well-known aspartic proteinase inhibitor; its IC50 values for human renin, HIV protease, pepsin, and cathepsin D are 15 μM, 2 μM, < 5 nM, and < 40 nM, respectively.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.08 mg/mL (3.03 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.03 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
