Product Description
(R)-CE3F4 is a potent and specific inhibitor of cAMP-activated exchange protein 1 (Epac1) with IC50 of 4.2 μM and is 10 times more selective for Epac2 (IC50, 44 μM). The activity of (R)-CE3F4 is higher than racemic CE3F4 and (S)-CE3F4.
(R)-CE3F4 (CAS 1593478-56-8) is a potent and specific inhibitor of exchange protein directly activated by cAMP isoform 1 (Epac1). With a molecular formula of C11H10Br2FNO and a molecular weight of 351.01, this enantiomerically pure compound has an IC50 of 4.2 microM for Epac1 and is 10 times more selective for Epac1 over Epac2 (IC50 of 44 microM). (R)-CE3F4 is more potent than racemic CE3F4 and (S)-CE3F4. By blocking Epac1 activation, (R)-CE3F4 interferes with downstream pathways involved in cell adhesion, migration, insulin secretion, and inflammatory responses.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Epac1 (exchange protein directly activated by cAMP isoform 1). (R)-CE3F4 is a selective inhibitor of Epac1 with an IC50 of 4.2 microM and is 10 times more selective for Epac1 over Epac2 (IC50 of 44 microM). Epac1 is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the small GTPases Rap1 and Rap2, activated by cAMP. By blocking Epac1 activation, (R)-CE3F4 interferes with downstream pathways involved in cell adhesion, migration, insulin secretion, and inflammatory responses.
ln Vitro
In vitro, (R)-CE3F4 functions as a potent and selective Epac1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 4.2 microM. The compound shows 10-fold selectivity for Epac1 over Epac2 (IC50 of 44 microM). It is used as a pharmacological probe to study Epac1-mediated signaling pathways in various cell types. The compound's activity is higher than racemic CE3F4 and (S)-CE3F4. It is used to investigate the role of Epac1 in cell adhesion, migration, insulin secretion, and inflammatory responses.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of (R)-CE3F4 are limited as the compound is primarily used as a research tool for in vitro applications. The compound is not intended for therapeutic use in animals or humans. Its in vivo effects would be expected to be related to Epac1 inhibition, potentially affecting cAMP-mediated signaling pathways. Further in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize its therapeutic potential.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro Epac1 inhibition assays for (R)-CE3F4 measure the compound's ability to inhibit Epac1-mediated Rap1 activation. The assay uses purified recombinant Epac1 protein and a fluorescently labeled Rap1 substrate. Varying concentrations of (R)-CE3F4 are incubated with Epac1 and Rap1 in the presence of cAMP. Rap1 activation is measured using a pull-down assay with a Rap1-binding domain or by fluorescence polarization. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves using nonlinear regression analysis.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for (R)-CE3F4 use cell lines that express Epac1 and respond to cAMP stimulation. Cells are cultured in appropriate media and treated with varying concentrations of the compound for 1-6 hours. Cellular responses measured include Rap1 activation (pull-down assays), cell adhesion, migration (transwell assays), and changes in gene expression. The compound's effect on Epac1-mediated signaling pathways can be assessed by Western blotting for phosphorylated downstream targets.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for (R)-CE3F4 are not typically performed as the compound is used as a research probe rather than a therapeutic agent. If performed, typical protocols would involve administration of the compound via intraperitoneal or intravenous injection at doses of 1-10 mg/kg. Tissue samples would be collected for analysis of Epac1 activity and downstream signaling. However, such studies are not extensively reported in the literature.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of (R)-CE3F4 are characteristic of small-molecule inhibitors. With a molecular weight of 351.01 and a molecular formula of C11H10Br2FNO, the compound has a LogP of 3.6. It is soluble in DMSO. The compound is stored as a powder at -20degC for up to 3 years or at 4degC for up to 2 years. In solution, it should be stored at -80degC for up to 6 months or at -20degC for up to 1 month. The compound appears as a white to off-white solid powder.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
(R)-CE3F4 is intended for research use only and is not for human therapeutic use. Standard safety precautions for handling chemical compounds apply. The compound is not approved for clinical use.
