| Targets |
6-Aminonicotinamide targets NADP+-dependent enzymes, particularly glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) with a Ki of 0.46 μM. It is a competitive inhibitor of G6PD, which is a key enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway. By inhibiting G6PD, it depletes cellular NADPH, leading to oxidative stress and apoptosis in tumor cells.

| ln Vitro |
6-Aminonicotinamide (100 nM; 7 days) dramatically lowers AR+ in CRPC-derived C4-2 and 22Rv1 cell models, human AR+, and hormone-sensitive prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP and LAPC4. Basal and R1881-mediated ROS levels are increased by 6-aminonicotinamide (100 nM ± 10 nM R1881) for three days, suggesting that 6-aminonicotinamide is obstructing the cell's antioxidant defenses. In C4-2 cells, 6-aminonicotinamide can also raise ROS levels [3].
6-Aminonicotinamide is a potent inhibitor of G6PD with a Ki of 0.46 μM. It induces apoptosis in tumor cells. Its in vitro activity is assessed by measuring the inhibition of G6PD enzyme activity in cell lysates or by measuring the induction of apoptosis in tumor cell lines. |
| ln Vivo |
6-Aminonicotinamide (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneally; stimulation time; days 1, 10, or 11 and 21) by itself caused a little but notable halt in tumor growth (4.3 +/- 0.8 days). Treatment with 6-Aminonicotinamide and radiation caused a tumor growth delay of 57.0+/-3.8 days in a CD8F1 breast tumor model [4].
6-Aminonicotinamide is clinically used in disseminated neoplastic disease. It induces apoptosis in tumor cells. It also acts as a 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase inhibitor and aids in the treatment of psoriasis. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The inhibition of G6PD by 6-Aminonicotinamide can be assessed using an in vitro enzyme assay. G6PD enzyme is incubated with its substrate, glucose-6-phosphate, and NADP+ in the presence of varying concentrations of the inhibitor. The production of NADPH is measured spectrophotometrically, and the Ki is determined.
|
| Cell Assay |
6-Aminonicotinamide is used in cell culture to study the effects of G6PD inhibition on cellular metabolism and apoptosis. Tumor cells are treated with the compound, and the induction of apoptosis is measured by caspase-3/7 activity or by Annexin V staining. The depletion of NADPH and the increase in oxidative stress are also measured.
|
| Animal Protocol |
6-Aminonicotinamide is used in animal models of cancer to study its antitumor activity. The compound is administered to tumor-bearing animals, and tumor growth is monitored. The effect on G6PD activity and NADPH levels in tumor tissue is also assessed.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
6-Aminonicotinamide has a molecular weight of 137.14 g/mol and a molecular formula of C6H7N3O. It is a solid that is insoluble in water. The compound should be stored at room temperature in a cool and dark place.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for 6-Aminonicotinamide are not extensively detailed. It is a potent antimetabolite and should be handled with care. The compound is not intended for human or veterinary use except in clinical settings.

| Additional Infomation |
6-Aminonicotinamide is a white crystalline solid. (NTP, 1992)
6-Aminonicotinamide is a monocarboxylic acid amide formed by the condensation of the carboxyl group and ammonia of 6-aminonicotinic acid. It is an inhibitor of the NADP+-dependent enzyme 6-phosphoglucuronide dehydrogenase, interfering with glycolysis, leading to ATP depletion, and synergistically killing cancer cells with DNA-crosslinking chemotherapeutic drugs such as cisplatin. It has teratogenic, antimetabolitic, and EC 1.1.1.44 (NADP+-dependent decarboxylphosphoglucuronide dehydrogenase) inhibitory effects. It is an aminopyridine compound, a primary amino compound, and a monocarboxylic acid amide. It is functionally related to 6-aminonicotinic acid. 6-Aminonicotinamide is a synthetic analog and a cytotoxic nicotinamide antagonist. 6-Aminonicotinamide forms aberrant NAD (a ubiquitous metabolic pathway coenzyme) analogs, thereby inhibiting the activity of NAD-dependent enzymes associated with ATP production. 6-Aminonicotinamide can impair cartilage formation, may have teratogenic effects, and enhance the effects of radiation therapy and cisplatin treatment (forming platinum-DNA complexes). (NCI04) A teratogenic vitamin antagonist. 6-Aminonicotinamide is a potent antimetabolite of nicotinamide and a competitive inhibitor of G6PD. It induces apoptosis in tumor cells and is clinically used in disseminated neoplastic disease. It also aids in the treatment of psoriasis. The compound is a valuable tool for studying the pentose phosphate pathway and its role in cancer and other diseases. |

*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.
