| Enzyme Assay |
A general cell-free protocol for assessing G-quadruplex stabilization: A fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) melting assay is used. A 5′-fluorescein-labeled and 3′-TAMRA-labeled oligonucleotide that forms a G-quadruplex structure (e.g., the human telomeric sequence d[AGGG(TTAGGG)3]) is used. The oligonucleotide (200 nM) is incubated in a buffer containing 100 mM KCl and 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4) with various concentrations of L2H2-6OTD formic or L2H2-6OTD acetate (0.1 nM to 100 uM). The samples are heated from 25degC to 95degC at a rate of 1degC per minute, and the fluorescence emission at 520 nm (FAM) is monitored. The melting temperature (Tm) of the G-quadruplex is determined. An increase in Tm indicates stabilization of the G-quadruplex by the compound. The deltaTm is calculated.

| Cell Assay |
A general cellular protocol for assessing telomerase inhibition: A telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP) assay is used to measure telomerase activity in cell lysates. Cells (e.g., HeLa, A549, or cancer cells with high telomerase activity) are treated with various concentrations of L2H2-6OTD formic (0.1 nM to 10 uM) for 48 hours. Cells are harvested, washed with PBS, and lysed in CHAPS lysis buffer on ice for 30 minutes. The lysates are centrifuged, and the supernatant is collected. Telomerase activity is measured using a TRAP assay kit. The cell lysate is incubated with a telomerase substrate primer (TS) and nucleotides at 30degC for 30 minutes, allowing telomerase to add telomeric repeats to the TS primer. The reaction mixture is then subjected to PCR amplification using the TS primer and a reverse primer (RP). The PCR products are separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and visualized by silver staining or SYBR Green. The intensity of the telomerase ladder is quantitated. The IC₅0 for telomerase inhibition is calculated.

| Animal Protocol |
A general animal protocol for evaluating telomerase inhibitors in a xenograft model: Female BALB/c nude mice are subcutaneously injected with 5×10⁶ HeLa or other telomerase-positive cancer cells in 0.1 mL of PBS mixed with Matrigel (1:1). When the average tumor volume reaches 100-150 mm3, the mice are randomized into treatment groups (n=8-10 per group). L2H2-6OTD formic is formulated in a suitable vehicle (e.g., 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween-80, 45% saline) and administered via intraperitoneal (IP) injection at doses of 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg once daily for 21 days. Tumor volume is measured twice weekly using a caliper, and body weight is recorded. At the end of the study, the mice are euthanized, and tumors are excised and weighed. Telomerase activity is measured in tumor lysates using the TRAP assay. Tumor tissues are also processed for immunohistochemistry (Ki-67 and cleaved caspase-3) and for assessment of telomere length by Southern blot or quantitative FISH (Q-FISH).

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
General pharmacokinetic protocol for L2H2-6OTD formic: Male Sprague-Dawley rats are administered L2H2-6OTD formic via intraperitoneal (IP, 10 mg/kg) and intravenous (IV, 2 mg/kg) injection. The compound is formulated in a vehicle such as 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween-80, 45% saline. Blood samples are collected at 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose. Plasma concentrations of L2H2-6OTD formic are quantified by LC-MS/MS. PK parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC, t½, clearance, Vd, and IP bioavailability) are calculated using non-compartmental analysis.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
General toxicity protocol for L2H2-6OTD formic: A 14-day repeated-dose toxicity study is performed in ICR mice. L2H2-6OTD formic is administered via intraperitoneal (IP) injection at doses of 5, 15, and 40 mg/kg/day for 14 consecutive days. Clinical signs, body weight, and food consumption are monitored daily. At the end of the study, blood samples are collected for hematology (complete blood count with differential) and serum chemistry (ALT, AST, ALP, BUN, creatinine, total protein, albumin, glucose). Gross necropsy is performed, and the weights of major organs (liver, kidney, spleen, heart, lung, brain, testes) are recorded. Histopathological examination of these organs is conducted. Bone marrow smears are prepared to assess any effects on hematopoietic cells. Due to the role of telomerase in stem cells, careful monitoring of hematopoietic and gastrointestinal systems is recommended.
