Product Description
SW155246 is a DNA methyltransferase (DNMT1) selective inhibitor (antagonist) with IC50s of 1.2 and 38 μM for hDNMT1 and mDNMT3A, respectively. SW155246 can be used for the research of cancer and other diseases.
SW-155246 (CAS 420092-79-1), also known as SW155246, is a selective inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) with a reported IC50 of 1.2 µM against human DNMT1 and a 30-fold preference over human or murine DNMT3 isoforms (IC50 = 38 µM). It has a molecular weight of 378.8 g/mol and formula C16H11ClN2O5S. SW-155246 is a non-quinone sulfonamide that does not generate reactive oxygen species or rely on redox cycling for its inhibitory activity.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
SW-155246 targets DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), the enzyme responsible for maintaining DNA methylation patterns during DNA replication. DNMT1 is a key epigenetic regulator involved in gene silencing, genomic stability, and cellular differentiation. By selectively inhibiting DNMT1 over DNMT3 isoforms, SW-155246 enables the study of maintenance methylation pathways without interfering with de novo methylation. The compound's non-quinone sulfonamide scaffold provides a clean, redox-independent mechanism of action.
ln Vitro
SW-155246 is a selective DNMT1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.2 µM against human DNMT1 and 38 µM against murine DNMT3 isoforms. Unlike many DNMT1-targeting compounds identified from high-throughput screens, SW-155246 is a non-quinone sulfonamide that does not generate reactive oxygen species or rely on redox cycling. This distinct mechanism and selectivity profile make it a specialized tool for investigating maintenance methylation pathways and validating DNMT1-specific epigenetic interventions.
ln Vivo
In vivo, SW-155246 promotes anti-tumor immune responses by modulating the tumor microenvironment. It holds significant potential as a therapeutic agent in oncology, particularly for cancers that rely on STAT3 signaling for growth and resistance to conventional therapies. The compound's selectivity for DNMT1 and its redox-independent mechanism suggest a favorable safety profile for in vivo applications. Specific in vivo efficacy data and detailed animal model studies are not extensively documented.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme assay for SW-155246 typically involves measuring the inhibition of DNMT1 and DNMT3A/3B enzymatic activity. Recombinant DNMT enzymes are incubated with varying concentrations of SW-155246 (typically 0.001-100 µM) in the presence of a DNA substrate and the methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). The enzymatic activity is measured by monitoring the incorporation of methyl groups into DNA using radiometric or fluorescence-based assays. The IC50 values are determined by plotting the percentage of inhibition against compound concentration.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for SW-155246 typically involve treating cancer cell lines with the compound at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 µM for 24-72 hours. Global DNA methylation levels are assessed by ELISA or LC-MS. Gene expression changes are measured by qPCR or RNA-seq. Cell viability and proliferation are evaluated using MTT, CCK-8, or CellTiter-Glo assays. The compound is dissolved in DMSO as a stock solution and diluted in cell culture medium.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for SW-155246 typically involve administration to mice via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection at doses determined from preliminary studies. Tumor xenograft models are used to evaluate antitumor efficacy. Tumor growth is monitored by caliper measurements. DNA methylation and gene expression changes in tumors are assessed by bisulfite sequencing or qPCR. The compound's effects on the tumor microenvironment and immune responses are evaluated by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
SW-155246 has a molecular weight of 378.8 g/mol and formula C16H11ClN2O5S. It is a non-quinone sulfonamide compound. The compound is soluble in DMSO and other organic solvents. Recommended storage is long-term in a cool, dry place. Purity is typically >95%. Detailed PK parameters such as half-life, Cmax, AUC, and bioavailability would require experimental determination.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
SW-155246 is intended for research use only and is not approved for human therapeutic applications. As a DNMT1 inhibitor, the compound may affect normal epigenetic regulation, which could contribute to potential toxicity. Standard preclinical toxicity assessments would include acute toxicity studies in rodents, repeated-dose toxicity studies, and assessment of off-target effects. The compound's redox-independent mechanism may reduce the risk of oxidative stress-related toxicity.
