Ki: 42 μM (PTP1B)[1].
PTP1B (Ki = 42 microM), SHP-1 (Ki = 43 microM). 2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone (PTP Inhibitor I) is a cell-permeable, covalent protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) inhibitor that blocks the catalytic domain of PTPs. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone inhibits PTP1B with a Ki of 42 microM and SHP-1 with a Ki of 43 microM. It is a cell-permeable covalent inhibitor that irreversibly modifies the active site cysteine residue of PTPs. It demonstrates potent inhibition against key phosphatases and is used to study PTP-mediated signaling pathways, including insulin signaling (via PTP1B) and immune regulation (via SHP-1).
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, 2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone has been used to study the role of protein tyrosine phosphatases in various diseases. By inhibiting PTP1B, it may enhance insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis. By inhibiting SHP-1, it may modulate immune cell function. Further in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize its efficacy and therapeutic potential in metabolic and immune disorders.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For non-cellular assays, recombinant human PTP1B or SHP-1 is incubated with a fluorogenic substrate such as DiFMUP (6,8-difluoro-4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate) in assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM EDTA). 2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone is added at varying concentrations (1-200 uM). Fluorescence is measured (excitation 360 nm, emission 460 nm), and Ki values are calculated from dose-response curves. Covalent modification can be assessed by mass spectrometry.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cell-based assays, cells (e.g., hepatocytes for PTP1B studies or immune cells for SHP-1 studies) are treated with 2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone (10-100 uM) for 1-6 hours. PTP activity in cell lysates is measured using fluorogenic substrates. For insulin signaling studies, cells are stimulated with insulin after treatment, and IR/AKT phosphorylation is measured by Western blot. For immune studies, SHP-1 substrate phosphorylation is assessed.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For animal studies, 2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone is administered intraperitoneally or orally to mouse models of diabetes or inflammation. Doses typically range from 10-50 mg/kg. Blood glucose levels are measured in diabetes models, and immune cell activation is assessed by flow cytometry in inflammation models. Tissues are harvested for analysis of PTP activity and downstream signaling markers.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone is cell-permeable and can be dissolved in DMSO for in vitro use. For in vivo administration, it can be formulated in a vehicle containing DMSO, PEG300, Tween-80, and saline. The compound has a molecular weight of 215.05 and a molecular formula of C8H7BrO2. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters have not been extensively reported.

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity Data
LC50 (Rat) = 190 mg/m³/4hr 2-Bromo-4'-hydroxyacetophenone is a covalent inhibitor and should be handled with care. At therapeutic doses in animal models (10-50 mg/kg), no significant systemic toxicity has been reported. However, as a reactive covalent modifier, it may have off-target effects at high concentrations. Standard safety precautions for handling research chemicals should be followed. It is not intended for human use. |

*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.
