Product Description

SQ109 (NSC-722041) is an antituberculosis drug which is currently in advanced clinical trials for the treatment of drug-susceptible and drug-resistant tuberculosis, it is a novel, potent and selective inhibitor of the trypomastigote form of the parasite with IC50 for cell killing of 50±8 nM. SQ109 showed activity against both drug susceptible and Multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis bacteria, including Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis strains. In preclinical studies SQ109 enhanced the activity of anti-tubercular drugs isoniazid and rifampin and reduced by >30% the time required to cure mice of experimental TB. SQ109 may also have potential as a drug lead against Chagas disease.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Trypanosoma
ln Vitro
With a selectivity index of approximately 10 to 20, SQ109 also inhibits clinically relevant intracellular amastigotes (IC50, ~0.5 to 1 μM) and extracellular epimastigotes (IC50, 4.6±1 μM). SQ109 performs poorly in an assay measuring hemolysis of red blood cells (EC50, ~80 μM). Furthermore, as shown by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and light microscopy (LMC), SQ109 significantly alters the ultrastructural characteristics of all three life cycle forms[1].
ln Vivo
For 28 days, mice given SQ109 orally (0.1–25 mg/kg daily) showed dose-dependent reductions in lung and spleen mycobacterial loads, which were similar to those of EMB given daily at 100 mg/kg, though less effective than isoniazid (INH) given daily at 25 mg/kg. After a single administration, the pharmacokinetic profiles of SQ109 in mice revealed a Cmax of 1038 for intravenous (i.v.) and 135 ng/mL for oral administration, along with an oral Tmax of 0.31 hours.Regarding SQ109, the elimination t1/2 is 3.5 (i.v.) and 5.2 h (p.o.). Oral bioavailability amounts to 4% [2]. Dogs have a significantly larger volume of distribution for SQ109 than rats do (7-8 h, mean 7.4 h), indicating that dogs have a longer terminal half-life (t1/2) of SQ109. It has been found that SQ109 has an oral bioavailability of 12% in rats and 5% in dogs[3].
Cell Assay
SQ109 (2.5–20 μM) is applied to the LLC-MK2 cells, and they are then incubated for 96 hours at 37°C. To the untreated samples, fresh RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% FBS is added as a control. The MTS/PMS test is used to assess toxicity. Based on its activities against the trypomastigote and intracellular amastigote forms of T.cruzi, SQ109's selectivity index is calculated as the ratio of the parasite's 50% lysing concentration (LC50) or IC50 to the 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50) of mammalian cells. Every experiment is run in duplicate. Three or more experiments yield the means[1].
Animal Protocol
Mice [2]
Eight-week-old female C57BL/6 mice are utilized. Twenty days after inoculation, mice are given oral doses of INH (25 mg/kg), ethambutol (EMB) (100 mg/kg), and SQ109 (0.1, 10 and 25 mg/kg). Mice infected but untreated control groups are euthanized either at the start of therapy (early controls) or at the conclusion of the treatment period. Every group consists of six mice. Four weeks after the start of treatment, the mice receive chemotherapy five days a week until they die. Weighing and aseptic removal of the lungs and spleen are performed.Two milliliters of sterile PBS containing 0.05% Tween-80 are used to homogenize the organs. After being diluted ten times in PBS, homogenate samples from distinct tissues are plated on 7H10 agar plates. Before calculating CFU, inoculated dishes are incubated for three weeks at 37°C in room temperature. A logarithmic scale is used to convert viable counts, and readings are adjusted to reflect totals for all organs. The survival rate and the mean number of CFU in mouse organs are used to evaluate the degree of infection and the efficacy of the treatments.

  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
