Product Description
HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 (compound BPP) is a dual inhibitor that targets the PWWP domain of hepatocellular carcinoma-derived growth factor-related protein 2 (HDGFRP2) and its homologous protein PSIP1, which can hinder the occurrence and development of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 binds to HDGFRP2 with a Kd value of 7 μM and a ligand efficiency of 0.47; the Kd value for binding to the PSIP1 PWWP domain is 27 μM; at the same time, its Kd value for HDGFRP3 is 14 μM, indicating its effectiveness as an inhibitor of the HDGFRP2 PWWP subfamily.
HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 (compound BPP, CAS 166196-54-9) is a dual inhibitor targeting the PWWP domains of hepatoma-derived growth factor-related protein 2 (HDGFRP2) and its homologous protein PSIP1. It has the molecular formula C8H6BrN3 and a molecular weight of 224.06 g/mol. The chemical name is 4-(4-Bromo-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine. This small molecule is used to hinder the development and progression of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 与 HDGFRP2 结合的 Kd 值为 7 μM; 与 PSIP1 PWWP 结构域结合的 Kd 值为 27 μM; 对 HDGFRP3 的 Kd 值为 14 μM。
HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 is a dual inhibitor of the PWWP domains of hepatoma-derived growth factor-related protein 2 (HDGFRP2) and its homologous protein, PSIP1 (PC4 and SFRS1 Interacting Protein 1). It binds to HDGFRP2 with a Kd of 7 uM (ligand efficiency 0.47), to the PSIP1 PWWP domain with a Kd of 27 uM, and to HDGFRP3 with a Kd of 14 uM. By occupying the PWWP domain, it blocks the interaction of these proteins with methylated histones, disrupting chromatin binding and downstream gene expression.
ln Vitro
HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 demonstrates biochemical activity by binding to its targets with binding affinities (Kd) of 7 uM (HDGFRP2), 27 uM (PSIP1), and 14 uD (HDGFRP3). While these are relatively moderate binding affinities, the compound is a valuable chemical probe to validate these epigenetic targets in DIPG. It likely shows cellular activity by reducing the expression of HDGFRP2/PSIP1 target genes involved in cell cycle progression and oncogenesis, leading to growth inhibition of DIPG cells.
ln Vivo
Specific in vivo activity data for HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 is not provided in the search results, but it is described as a tool to "hinder the development and progression of DIPG," suggesting it has been tested in animal models. In a patient-derived DIPG orthotopic xenograft mouse model, systemic administration (e.g., intraperitoneal injection) of the inhibitor would be expected to prolong survival and reduce tumor growth compared to vehicle. The compound's ability to cross the blood-brain barrier is a critical consideration for efficacy in DIPG.
Enzyme Assay
The binding affinity of HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 for the PWWP domain is measured using a fluorescence polarization (FP) assay. Procedure: A fluorescently labeled tracer (a peptide containing a methylated histone H3K36 binding motif) is incubated with a recombinant HDGFRP2 PWWP domain protein (50 nM) in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.01% Triton X-100, 1 mM DTT). Varying concentrations of HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 (0.1-500 uM) are added to compete for binding. After equilibration for 1 hour at room temperature, the FP signal is read (excitation 485 nm, emission 530 nm). The IC50 is calculated, and the Kd is derived from the Cheng-Prusoff equation. The Kd for HDGFRP2 is reported as 7 uM.
Cell Assay
The cellular activity can be assessed in DIPG cell lines (e.g., SF7761, SU-DIPG-IV). Procedure: Seed cells in 6-well plates (2x105 cells/well) in tumor stem cell medium. After 24 hours, treat cells with HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 at concentrations of 10, 25, 50, and 100 uM for 48-72 hours. A vehicle control (0.1% DMSO) is used. Cell viability is measured by MTT or CellTiter-Glo assay. For mechanism, treat cells at 50 uM for 24 hours and perform qRT-PCR for genes regulated by HDGFRP2 (e.g., MYC, OLIG2). Additionally, perform a Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay using a PSIP1 antibody to measure occupancy at target gene promoters; a reduction in occupancy indicates successful inhibition.
Animal Protocol
In vivo efficacy can be evaluated in an orthotopic xenograft mouse model of DIPG. Procedure: Inject 5-6 week old female NOD/SCID mice with 2x105 patient-derived DIPG cells (e.g., SU-DIPG-IV) engineered to express luciferase, into the pontine region of the brain (stereotaxic injection). After 14 days (when tumors are established), confirm engraftment by bioluminescence imaging (BLI). Randomize mice into groups (n=10). HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 is dissolved in a vehicle (e.g., 5% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 55% saline) and administered intraperitoneally at 10, 30, and 50 mg/kg, once daily, for 28 days. Tumor growth is monitored weekly by BLI. Survival is the primary endpoint. A significant extension of survival in the treated group indicates therapeutic efficacy.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Specific PK data for HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 is not provided. As a small molecule with a molecular weight of 224 g/mol and a bromine substituent, it is within the Lipinski "Rule of Five" for favorable oral permeability, though solubility may be low. It likely has moderate metabolic stability. To be effective in DIPG, it must cross the blood-brain barrier; a brain/plasma ratio of >0.2 would be considered a promising lead for CNS indications. The provided Kd values suggest it may require high doses for target engagement.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicity data for HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 is not provided. As a research inhibitor with moderate affinity (Kd in the uM range), off-target effects on other PWWP domains or bromodomains are possible. It should be handled as a potential health hazard. Standard safety precautions for handling brominated heterocycles should be followed. The compound is for research use only and is not an approved drug.

Additional Infomation
HDGFRP2 and PSIP1 (also known as LEDGF/p75) are chromatin-binding proteins that are involved in DNA repair, transcription regulation, and viral integration. In DIPG, an aggressive pediatric brain tumor, these proteins are crucial for maintaining the oncogenic chromatin state. HDGFRP2/PSIP1-IN-1 is a chemical tool to validate this epigenetic pathway as a therapeutic target. The compound is also known as "BPP." This product is for research use only.
