    Description

    10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid is a highly specific, selective, high affinity and orally active acyl-CoA oxidase-1 (ACOX1) inhibitor. 10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid can treat high fat diet- or obesity-induced metabolic diseases by improving mitochondrial lipid and ROS metabolism[1]. 10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

    IC50 & Target

    Acyl-CoA oxidase-1 (ACOX1)[1].

    In Vitro

    10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid-CoA rapidly inhibits ACOX1 activity in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The activity of ACOX1 decreases by nearly 95% after 5 min of incubation with 10 eq of 10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid-CoA. ACOX1 activity is inhibited only if free 10,12-Tricosadiynoic Acid is activated as the CoA thioester, the substrate form. Inhibition of ACOX1 by 10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid-CoA is irreversible. And the kinetics parameters KI and kinact are calculated to be 680 nm and 3.18 min 1, respectively[1].
    10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid is the precursor of 10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid-CoA and is transformed into 10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid-CoA by peroxisomal very long chain acyl-CoA synthetase (VLACS) after entering into cells, and it inhibits ACOX1 in vivo[1].
    10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid (500 nM) inhibits acyl-CoA oxidase-1 (ACOX1) activity. 10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid treatment abrogates the protective effect by Sirt5 siRNA[2].

    In Vivo

    10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid (100 μg/kg; oral gavage; daily; for 8 weeks; male Wistar rats) treatment increases hepatic mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO) via activation of the SIRT1-AMPK (adenosine 5′-monophosphate-activated protein kinase) pathway and proliferator activator receptor α and reduces hydrogen peroxide accumulation in high fat diet-fed rats, which significantly decreases hepatic lipid and ROS contents, reduces body weight gain, and decreases serum triglyceride and insulin levels[1].
    10,12-Tricosadiynoic acid (0 mg/kg, 37.5 mg/kg, 75 mg/kg, and 150 mg/kg diet) treatment does not affect weight gain, but significantly decreases peroxisomal β-oxidation in the liver, and increased body fat accumulation in Nile tilapia. The fish with impaired peroxisomal β-oxidation exhibited higher contents of serum lipid and peroxidation products, and alanine aminotransferase activity, and significantly lowered hepatic activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase[3].

    In Vivo:

    Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

    For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
    To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
    The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

    • Protocol 1

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      Solubility: 5 mg/mL (14.43 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

      This protocol yields a suspended solution of 5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

      Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
