Product Description
Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt (compound 3) is a cell-penetrating/penetrable, competitive inhibitor of fumarate hydratase (Ki=4.5 μM) with nutrient-dependent cell toxicity/cytotoxicity.
Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt (Compound 3) is a cell-permeable and competitive inhibitor of fumarate hydratase (FH), a key enzyme in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle that catalyzes the reversible hydration of fumarate to malate. This inhibitor exhibits nutrient-dependent cytotoxicity and is a valuable research tool for studying cancer metabolism, mitochondrial dysfunction, and pathways linked to hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma (HLRCC).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Ki: 4.5 μM (Fumarate hydratase)[1]
Fumarate Hydratase (FH). Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt is a competitive inhibitor of FH, binding to the active site of the enzyme. FH (also known as fumarase) is a tumor suppressor; its loss or inhibition leads to the accumulation of fumarate, an oncometabolite.
ln Vitro
In cell-free enzyme assays, Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt acts as a competitive inhibitor of FH with a Ki of 4.5 microM. It is cell-permeable, meaning it can cross the cell membrane to access its intracellular target. It exhibits nutrient-dependent cytotoxicity, meaning its toxicity to cells depends on the availability of metabolic substrates, often showing higher potency when cells are forced to rely on oxidative phosphorylation.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity data for Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt are limited, as it is primarily used as a cellular tool. By inhibiting FH, it induces the accumulation of fumarate. This oncometabolite can inhibit prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs), stabilizing HIF-1alpha and promoting a pseudo-hypoxic state. This tool is used to simulate the metabolic effects of hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) in cell culture models, though specific animal studies with this compound are less common.
Enzyme Assay
For non-cellular FH inhibition assays, purified recombinant human fumarate hydratase is incubated with its substrate, fumarate, in an assay buffer (e.g., Tris-HCl, pH 8.0). Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt is added at varying concentrations (1-100 uM). The reaction is initiated, and the conversion of fumarate to malate is monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in absorbance at 240 nm (fumarate has a UV absorption peak). Ki values are calculated via Lineweaver-Burk plots.
Cell Assay
For cellular metabolic assays, cancer cells (e.g., renal carcinoma or melanoma cells) are cultured in media with varying nutrient levels (e.g., high vs. low glucose/glutamine) to assess nutrient-dependent cytotoxicity. Cells are treated with Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt (5-50 uM) for 24-72 hours. Cell viability is measured by MTT or CellTiter-Glo. Fumarate accumulation is measured by LC-MS/MS, and HIF-1alpha stabilization is confirmed by Western blot as a pharmacodynamic marker.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo pharmacodynamics, Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt would likely be formulated in a vehicle such as PBS (phosphate-buffered saline) or a solution containing a co-solvent like DMSO (≤5%) and administered intraperitoneally or intravenously to mice. However, published in vivo efficacy protocols for this specific compound are limited. Blood and tissues would be collected to measure fumarate levels, malate levels, and the fumarate/malate ratio via mass spectrometry to confirm target engagement.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt has a molecular weight of 405.29 g/mol. It is soluble in water and DMSO, making it suitable for both aqueous and organic formulations. For in vitro use, a 10 mM stock solution can be prepared in DMSO. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters (half-life, Cmax, AUC) for this specific inhibitor are not extensively published in the available literature, as it is primarily used as a cellular probe rather than for systemic efficacy. The powder should be stored at -20degC, protected from light.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Detailed toxicological data for Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt are limited. It is a research chemical and is not for human use. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed, including the use of gloves, a lab coat, and eye protection. Avoid inhalation and ingestion. The compound may be irritating to the eyes and skin. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting a TCA cycle enzyme, which could be detrimental to highly metabolically active cells, but selective toxicity is conferred by the nutrient-dependent cytotoxicity phenotype.

Additional Infomation
Fumarate hydratase-IN-2 sodium salt is also known as Fumarase inhibitor 3. It is a chemical probe used to study the role of fumarate as an oncometabolite, as seen in HLRCC, a cancer syndrome caused by mutations in the FH gene. It is not an FDA-approved drug. It is a valuable tool for validating FH as a target for cancer therapy, particularly for tumors with intact FH function that can be pharmacologically converted to an "HLRCC-like" metabolic state.
