Pyridostatin (RR82) is a G-quadruplex DNA stabilizing agent (Kd=490 nM) and can target DNA and RNA G4s in cells. Pyridostatin promotes growth arrest in human cancer cells by inducing replication- and transcription-dependent DNA damage. Pyridostatin targets the proto-oncogene Src. Pyridostatin reduced SRC protein levels and SRC-dependent cellular motility in human breast cancer cells.

The free form of the compound is prone to instability, it is advisable to consider the stable salt form that retains the same biological activity.

    Pyridostatin purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Nat Commun. 2022 Sep 16;13(1):5456.  [Abstract]

    Stacked bar graphs of zebrafish embryos in dead, deformd, and normal status with different G4 stabilizer (Pyridostatin hydrochloride, 0.05-20 ng/μL, 5 nL) concentration at 24 hpf (d) and 48 hpf (e).

    qRT-PCR measurement of shox. The mRNA expression level of the shoxgene was detected at different time points (3, 7, and 14 days post-fertilization; i.e., 3 dpf, 7 dpf, and 14 dpf). The results showed that, compared with wild-type zebrafish, the G4 stabilizer Pyridostatin hydrochloride (0.05-0.1 ng/μL) significantly reduced the shox mRNA expression level in wrn−/− zebrafish.

    Levels of miR-26a in MPHs transfected with miR-26a-WT or miR-26a-G4mut plasmids and stimulated with Pyridostatin hydrochloride (PDS, 10 μM; 48 h). The results showed that PDS significantly diminished the increase in miR-26a expression induced by miR-26a-WT plasmids, but not by miR-26a-G4mut plasmids, indicating that the G/A mutations are sufficient to abolish the inhibitory effect of PDS on miR-26a expression.

    Pyridostatin hydrochloride (PDS, 10 μM; 48 h) markedly inhibited insulin-induced AKT activation, a central hallmark of insulin sensitivity, in MPHs (isolated from C57BL/6 mice) transfected with miR-26a-WT plasmids.

    8- to 10-week-old mice were infused with Pyridostatin hydrochloride (PDS, 6 mg/kg body weight) or saline (NC) via caudal vein twice a day (n = 5). 12 h post the second injection, the following measurements were performed. Representative H&E staining of paraffin liver sections. Scale bars: 20 μm. The results showed that no significant differences in histology and morphology were observed between PDS-treated mice and saline-treated mice.

    In Vitro

    Pyridostatin (RR82) (10 μM; 48 hours) induces cell cycle arrest[1].
    Pyridostatin is a very selective G-quadruplex DNA-binding small molecule designed to form a complex with and stabilize G-quadruplex structure. Pyridostatin causes neurite retraction, synaptic loss, and dose-dependent neuronal death. In cultured primary neurons, Pyridostatin induces the formation of DNA DSBs. Remarkably, Pyridostatin (1-5 μM, overnight) downregulates the BRCA1 protein, a protein that guards and repairs the neuronal genome, at the transcriptional level[3].

    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.
