Product Description
Trequinsin HCl (HL 725) is a potent inhibitor of platelet CAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) with IC50 of 0.25 nM. Trequinsin HCl (HL 725) is a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation induced by ADP, collagen, thrombin and epinephrine in vitro.
Trequinsin hydrochloride (HL 725) is a highly potent inhibitor of cGMP-inhibited phosphodiesterase (PDE3). It is a cell-permeable phosphodiesterase inhibitor with strong selectivity for PDE3 and additional activity against PDE2 and PDE4. Trequinsin has been used as a PDE3 inhibitor in rat juxtaglomerular cells and has been widely used in cardiovascular research to study heart contractility, vascular function, and platelet aggregation. The compound has a molecular weight of 441.96 and a molecular formula of C24H28ClN3O3. Its chemical name is Trequinsin hydrochloride.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Trequinsin hydrochloride targets phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3), an enzyme that hydrolyzes cGMP and cAMP. The compound is a highly potent inhibitor of PDE3 with an IC50 of 250 pM. It also inhibits PDE3A and PDE3B with IC50 values of 0.04 nM and 0.03 nM, respectively. Trequinsin has additional activity against PDE2 and PDE4. By inhibiting PDE3, the compound increases intracellular cAMP and cGMP levels, leading to vasodilation, inhibition of platelet aggregation, and positive inotropic effects. Trequinsin's multitarget PDE inhibition makes it valuable for studying cyclic nucleotide signaling.
ln Vitro
In addition to its effects on the heart and blood pressure, trequinsin hydrochloride has strong antiplatelet properties[1]. Ca2+ iagonist trequinsin hydrochloride is effective[3].
Trequinsin hydrochloride demonstrates potent in vitro inhibition of PDE3 with an IC50 of 250 pM. It potently inhibits arachidonic acid-induced aggregation of human platelets with an IC50 of 50 pM. The compound inhibits PDE3A and PDE3B with IC50 values of 0.04 nM and 0.03 nM, respectively. Trequinsin has been used as a PDE3 inhibitor in rat juxtaglomerular cells, where it enhances cellular cAMP content, forskolin-induced cAMP synthesis, and renin release. These in vitro findings confirm the compound's potent PDE3 inhibitory activity and its effects on platelet function and cellular signaling.
ln Vivo
Trequinsin hydrochloride has been used in vivo in cardiovascular research. The compound has been studied for its effects on heart contractility, vascular function, and platelet aggregation. In rat juxtaglomerular cells, trequinsin enhances cellular cAMP content and renin release. Its potent inhibition of platelet aggregation (IC50 of 50 pM) suggests potential antithrombotic effects in vivo. Trequinsin's multitarget PDE inhibition also makes it valuable for investigating signaling pathways in cancer, inflammation, and neurological disorders. Further studies are needed to fully characterize its in vivo efficacy and safety.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme assay for Trequinsin hydrochloride involves measuring its inhibition of PDE3 enzymatic activity. Recombinant human PDE3 (or PDE3A and PDE3B isoforms) is expressed and purified. Enzyme activity is assessed by measuring the hydrolysis of cAMP or cGMP to AMP or GMP using a scintillation proximity assay or fluorescence polarization. Trequinsin is incubated with the enzyme and substrate at various concentrations. IC50 values are determined by fitting the inhibition data to a dose-response curve. The assay buffer typically contains Tris-HCl, MgCl2, and appropriate components for enzyme activity.
Cell Assay
Cell Viability Assay[3]
Cell Types: Samples from healthy volunteer research donors with normal sperm motility parameters in agreement with World Health Organization 2010 criteria.
Tested Concentrations: 10 μM.
Incubation Duration: 20 min.
Experimental Results: Caused a concentrationdependent increase in [Ca2+]i (EC50 = 6.4 μM [95% confidence interval (CI): 4.1-9.9 μM]).
In vitro cellular assays for Trequinsin hydrochloride typically use platelet aggregation assays to assess its functional effects. Human platelets are isolated and treated with Trequinsin at various concentrations. Platelet aggregation is induced by arachidonic acid or other agonists, and aggregation is measured using aggregometry. The compound's ability to inhibit platelet aggregation is quantified as the IC50. Additionally, cellular cAMP and cGMP levels can be measured using ELISA in various cell types. These assays confirm the compound's cellular activity and support its use in cardiovascular research.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for Trequinsin hydrochloride have been conducted in rat models. The compound has been used as a PDE3 inhibitor in rat juxtaglomerular cells to study renin release. Standard in vivo efficacy studies for cardiovascular indications would involve animal models of thrombosis, heart failure, or hypertension. Trequinsin would be administered via oral or parenteral routes. Hemodynamic parameters, platelet function, and vascular function would be assessed. Further studies are needed to fully characterize the compound's in vivo efficacy and safety.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Trequinsin hydrochloride are not extensively documented. As a small-molecule PDE inhibitor with a molecular weight of 441.96, the compound is expected to have reasonable bioavailability. It is cell-permeable, suggesting good membrane penetration. The compound's multitarget PDE inhibition may influence its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile. Further pharmacokinetic studies, including assessments of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME), are necessary to fully characterize its PK profile.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Trequinsin hydrochloride are not extensively available in the public domain. As a research compound used for cardiovascular studies, Trequinsin has not undergone extensive toxicological evaluation. Standard cytotoxicity assays in cell lines may have been performed to assess safety margins. The compound's potent inhibition of platelet aggregation (IC50 of 50 pM) suggests that bleeding risk would be a potential concern. Further preclinical toxicology studies would be required to assess safety before clinical development.
