| Targets |
ASN90 targets O-GlcNAcase (OGA), an enzyme that removes O-GlcNAc modifications from proteins. It is a potent, selective, substrate-competitive OGA inhibitor with an IC50 of 10.2 nM. The compound does not inhibit hexosaminidase (Hex), demonstrating selectivity for OGA. By inhibiting OGA, ASN90 increases O-GlcNAcylation of proteins, which is involved in neuroprotection and has implications for neurodegenerative diseases. The compound is orally active. It can be used for research of tauopathies and α-synucleinopathies.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro studies demonstrate that ASN90 is a potent, selective, substrate-competitive O-GlcNAcase (OGA) inhibitor with an IC50 of 10.2 nM. It is a specific OGA inhibitor that does not inhibit hexosaminidase (Hex). The compound's selectivity and potency make it a valuable tool for studying O-GlcNAc biology and its role in neurodegenerative diseases. ASN90 can be used for the research of neurodegenerative diseases such as tauopathies and α-synucleinopathies. Its oral activity further supports its utility in research applications.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo studies of ASN90 are limited in publicly available literature. As an orally active OGA inhibitor, the compound has potential for in vivo investigations of neurodegenerative diseases. O-GlcNAcylation is involved in neuroprotection and protein aggregation pathways relevant to tauopathies and α-synucleinopathies. However, specific in vivo efficacy data and detailed animal model studies are not extensively reported. Further research is needed to establish its in vivo activity profile, pharmacokinetic properties, and therapeutic potential. The compound remains a research tool for O-GlcNAc biology.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For OGA enzyme activity assays, recombinant human OGA enzyme is incubated with fluorogenic substrates (e.g., 4-methylumbelliferyl-N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminide) and varying concentrations of ASN90. Enzyme activity is measured by fluorescence detection of the released product. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. For selectivity assays, similar protocols are used with hexosaminidase (Hex) to confirm lack of inhibition. For cellular assays, cells are treated with ASN90 and O-GlcNAc levels are measured by Western blot using O-GlcNAc-specific antibodies (e.g., RL2 or CTD110.6). Assays are performed in triplicate with appropriate vehicle controls.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, neuronal cell lines or other relevant cells are cultured in appropriate media under standard conditions (37°C, 5% CO2). ASN90 is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in culture medium to desired concentrations. Cells are treated with compound for specified durations. O-GlcNAc levels are assessed by Western blot using O-GlcNAc-specific antibodies. Protein aggregation markers (e.g., Tau phosphorylation, α-synuclein accumulation) may be measured. Cell viability and cytotoxicity are assessed using standard assays. Each concentration is tested in replicate wells with vehicle controls and positive controls.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies of ASN90, no specific published protocols are available. As an orally active OGA inhibitor, the compound can be administered via oral gavage. Dosing regimens vary by study objective. In neurodegenerative disease models (e.g., tauopathy or α-synucleinopathy models), animals may be treated with compound and pathology is assessed. O-GlcNAc levels in brain tissue can be measured by Western blot. Behavioral assessments may be performed. Blood and tissue samples may be collected for pharmacokinetic analysis. All procedures must follow institutional animal care and use committee guidelines.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of ASN90 indicate it is orally active. The compound has a molecular weight of 425.44, formula C23H23N5O3, and CAS number 1884154-02-2. Purity: typically high.
