Product Description
ALR2-IN-1 is a potent and specific inhibitor of ALR2 (IC50=1.42 μM). ALR2-IN-1 displays antioxidant and anti-glycation properties. ALR2-IN-1 may be utilized in the study of diabetic complications.
ALR2-IN-1 (CAS#: 2799695-54-6) is a potent and selective inhibitor of aldehyde reductase 2 (ALR2). It has a molecular formula of C16H17N3O2S and a molecular weight of 315.39 g/mol. ALR2-IN-1 inhibits ALR2 with an IC50 of 1.42 μM. The compound shows antioxidant and antiglycative properties. ALR2-IN-1 can be used in diabetic complication research. Aldose reductase and aldehyde reductase are enzymes involved in the polyol pathway, and their inhibition can prevent the accumulation of sorbitol and other toxic metabolites in diabetic tissues.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
IC50: 1.42 μM (ALR2) >100 μM (ALR1)[1]
The primary target of ALR2-IN-1 is aldehyde reductase 2 (ALR2), an enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of aldehydes to alcohols using NADPH as a cofactor. ALR2-IN-1 is a potent and selective inhibitor of ALR2 with an IC50 of 1.42 μM. By inhibiting ALR2, the compound may reduce the production of sorbitol and other toxic metabolites in the polyol pathway, which is implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications. The compound also exhibits antioxidant and antiglycative properties.
ln Vitro
In vitro, ALR2-IN-1 inhibits ALR2 with an IC50 of 1.42 μM. It is a potent and selective inhibitor of ALR2. The compound shows antioxidant and antiglycative properties. These in vitro activities suggest that ALR2-IN-1 may be useful for studying the role of ALR2 in diabetic complications and for developing potential therapeutic agents. ALR2-IN-1 has a molecular formula of C16H17N3O2S and a molecular weight of 315.39 g/mol.
ln Vivo
In vivo, ALR2-IN-1 may have potential therapeutic applications in the treatment of diabetic complications, such as neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy. By inhibiting ALR2 and reducing the accumulation of sorbitol and other toxic metabolites, the compound could prevent or delay the progression of these complications. However, detailed in vivo efficacy and safety data are not extensively reported in the available literature, and its use is primarily limited to preclinical research settings. Further studies are needed to fully characterize its in vivo effects and therapeutic potential.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro assays for ALR2-IN-1 typically involve measuring its inhibition of ALR2 activity using recombinant ALR2 enzyme. The assay is performed in a suitable buffer system containing the substrate (e.g., DL-glyceraldehyde or other aldehydes) and the cofactor NADPH. Test compounds, including ALR2-IN-1, are added at various concentrations, and the decrease in NADPH absorbance is monitored spectrophotometrically at 340 nm. The IC50 value of 1.42 μM is calculated by fitting dose-response curves to the inhibition data. Selectivity assays against other related enzymes, such as aldose reductase, may also be performed.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for ALR2-IN-1 typically use cell lines that express ALR2, such as those derived from tissues affected by diabetic complications (e.g., lens epithelial cells, renal cells, or neuronal cells). Cells are cultured in high-glucose medium to mimic diabetic conditions and are treated with ALR2-IN-1 at various concentrations. The compound's ability to reduce sorbitol accumulation and oxidative stress is assessed by measuring sorbitol levels and markers of oxidative damage. Cell viability and markers of inflammation may also be evaluated.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for ALR2-IN-1 would typically involve the administration of the compound to rodent models of diabetes, such as streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats or genetically diabetic mice. The compound could be administered via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection. Following treatment, tissues such as the lens, retina, sciatic nerve, and kidney are collected to measure sorbitol levels, markers of oxidative stress, and histological changes. The compound's ability to prevent or reverse diabetic complications is assessed.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for ALR2-IN-1 are not extensively reported in the available literature. The compound has a molecular weight of 315.39 g/mol and a molecular formula of C16H17N3O2S. For research purposes, the compound is typically stored under recommended conditions as per the Certificate of Analysis. Detailed parameters such as half-life, volume of distribution, and bioavailability are not publicly available and would need to be determined experimentally.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
There is no specific toxicity data reported for ALR2-IN-1 in the available literature. As a research chemical intended for laboratory use only, it should be handled with standard safety precautions for handling chemical reagents. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use. Researchers should consult the material safety data sheet (MSDS) for detailed safety and handling information. Any potential toxicity would need to be assessed through formal toxicological studies if the compound were to be developed further.
