N-Desmethyl imatinib  (Synonyms: Norimatinib; Imatinib metabolite N-Desmethyl imatinib; CGP 74588)

Cat. No.: HY-G0017 Purity: 98.33%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

N‑Desmethyl imatinib (Norimatinib) is an active metabolite of Imatinib (HY-15463), a selective c‑Abl inhibitor, and a substrate of P‑glycoprotein. N-Desmethyl imatinib binds to the c-Abl catalytic domain to prevent substrate phosphorylation, inhibits c-Abl-mediated α-synuclein activation and downstream inflammatory signaling pathways. N-Desmethyl imatinib induces apoptosis in K562 human leukemia cells. N-Desmethyl imatinib shows significantly elevated plasma levels in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) models with mild SARS-CoV-2 infection. N-Desmethyl imatinib can be used for the research of Parkinson’s disease, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and chronic myeloid leukemia.

Description

N‑Desmethyl imatinib (Norimatinib) is an active metabolite of Imatinib (HY-15463), a selective c‑Abl inhibitor, and a substrate of P‑glycoprotein. N-Desmethyl imatinib binds to the c-Abl catalytic domain to prevent substrate phosphorylation, inhibits c-Abl-mediated α-synuclein activation and downstream inflammatory signaling pathways. N-Desmethyl imatinib induces apoptosis in K562 human leukemia cells. N-Desmethyl imatinib shows significantly elevated plasma levels in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) models with mild SARS-CoV-2 infection. N-Desmethyl imatinib can be used for the research of Parkinson’s disease, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and chronic myeloid leukemia[1][2][3].

In Vitro

N-Desmethyl imatinib (CGP 74588) (0.3-30 μM) acts as a substrate for P-glycoprotein, stimulating ATPase activity in P-glycoprotein-expressing Sf9 cell membrane vesicles at concentrations ranging from 0.3 to 30 μM[3].
N-Desmethyl imatinib (48 h) inhibits K562 cell proliferation with an IC50 of 0.58 μM and shows no significant inhibition of K562/Dox cell proliferation (IC50 > 20 μM) after 48 h of treatment[3].
N-Desmethyl imatinib (1.6 μM, 20 μM; 48 h) induces apoptosis in K562 cells, but does not significantly induce apoptosis in K562/Dox cells[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Proliferation Assay[3]

Cell Line: human chronic myelogenous leukemia K562 cells, K562/Dox cells

Showed no substantial proliferation inhibition in K562/Dox cells, with an IC50 greater than 20 μM.

Apoptosis Analysis[3]

Cell Line: human chronic myelogenous leukemia K562 cells, K562/Dox cells
Concentration: 1.6 μM (K562 cells); 20 μM (K562/Dox cells)
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Induced apoptosis in K562 cells, resulting in a hypoploid apoptotic population of 22.5%.
Did not induce a significant apoptotic response in K562/Dox cells, with a hypoploid population of 1.6% (similar to untreated control).

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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.21 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

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.
