| Targets |
RYL-552 targets Plasmodium falciparum NADH dehydrogenase 2 (PfNDH2), an enzyme essential for the parasite's mitochondrial electron transport chain. It acts as an allosteric inhibitor of PfNDH2. The compound also shows potential activity against other targets such as cytochrome bc1 and dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), but PfNDH2 is the primary target for its antimalarial effect.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
RYL-552 is a potent inhibitor of PfNDH2, with excellent in vitro activity against Plasmodium falciparum, including drug-resistant strains. It exhibits EC50 values in the low nanomolar range against multiple parasite lines. The compound disrupts mitochondrial function and energy production, leading to parasite death. Its potency and selectivity make it a promising antimalarial candidate.
|
| ln Vivo |
RYL-552 exhibits excellent potency against parasite-infected mice in vivo. In murine models of malaria, it reduces parasitemia and improves survival. It has demonstrated efficacy against drug-resistant strains, indicating a favorable resistance profile. The compound is orally bioavailable and shows dose-dependent activity, supporting its potential as a therapeutic antimalarial agent.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro activity of RYL-552 is assessed using enzyme inhibition assays with purified recombinant PfNDH2. The compound's ability to inhibit NADH dehydrogenase activity is measured spectrophotometrically by monitoring the reduction of a quinone substrate. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Selectivity against mammalian homologs is also evaluated to confirm specificity.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell-based assays are used to evaluate RYL-552's antimalarial activity. Plasmodium falciparum cultures (e.g., 3D7 or drug-resistant strains) are treated with various concentrations of RYL-552, and parasite growth is measured by [³H]-hypoxanthine incorporation or SYBR Green fluorescence. The EC50 is determined from dose-response curves. Cytotoxicity against mammalian cells (e.g., HepG2) is also assessed to determine selectivity.
|
| Animal Protocol |
RYL-552 has been evaluated in mouse models of malaria, typically using the Plasmodium berghei or P. falciparum SCID mouse model. Infected mice are treated orally or intraperitoneally with RYL-552 at various doses. Parasitemia is monitored by blood smears, and survival is recorded. Pharmacodynamic studies measure compound levels in blood and target engagement in parasites.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
RYL-552 has a molecular weight of 427.39 and a molecular formula of C24H17F4NO2. The IUPAC name is 5-Fluoro-3-methyl-2-(4-(4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzyl)phenyl)quinolin-4(1H)-one. It is soluble in DMSO and should be stored at -20°C, protected from light. Purity is typically >98% by HPLC. The compound is a research-grade antimalarial agent.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
RYL-552 is a research compound with an unknown full toxicological profile. In mouse efficacy studies, it is tolerated at therapeutic doses without overt toxicity. As a mitochondrial ETC inhibitor, it may have off-target effects on mammalian mitochondria at high concentrations. Standard safety precautions, including use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when handling this compound.
