Description

Thiamet G is a potent and selective inhibitor of O-GlcNAcase (OGA), which acts to remove O-GlcNAc from modified proteins, with Ki of 20 nM for human OGA.

IC50 & Target

Ki: 20 nM (Human OGA)[1]

In Vitro

Thiamet G (1 μM) induces a clear increase in the accumulation of O-GlcNAcylated proteins of ATDC5 cells. O-GlcNAc accumulation induced by Thiamet G also evokes a clear increase in the activity of these MMPs. Thiamet G (1 μM) induces the phosphorylation of JNK, ERK, and p38 but not phosphorylation of Akt[2]. Thiamet G (0.1-10 μM) does not significantly affect the cell viability. Thiamet G decreases phosphorylation of tau and alters the microtubule dynamics[3].

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

In Vivo

Thiamet G (500 mg/kg/d) increases global and tau O-GlcNAc and reduces neurodegeneration. Thiamet G-treated group has 1.4-fold more motor neurons and hinders tau-driven neurodegeneration within this transgenic model. Thiamet G treatment therefore has no detectable effect on mice lacking the P301L transgene, indicating that prevention of neurodegeneration and weight loss is mediated by Thiamet G treatment only in the context of the P301L transgene. In Thiamet G-treated mice, the O-GlcNAc increases in the brain and spinal cord tissues[1].
Thiamet G (20 mg/kg, i.p.) increases O-GlcNAc levels in brain, liver, and knee of the C57BL/6 mice in a dose-dependent manner[2].

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.38 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
  • Protocol 2

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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.38 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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.

Kinase Assay
[3]

All enzymatic assays are performed in triplicate at 37°C using 4-methylumbelliferyl N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminide dehydrate as substrate. 1 nM of purified OGA is incubated with the compounds for 5 min, and then 0.2 mM of the substrate is added. The liberation of 4-methylumbellifery is monitored by kinetic reading at excitation/emission 355/460 nm using a Tecan M200 plate in a mode of 60 s/cycle and 15 cycles in total.

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

Cell Assay
[3]

Jurkat cells are seeded at 6000 cells/well in a 96-well plate, and 12 h later, cells are treated with compounds for the indicated time. Cell viability is determined by XTT assay.

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

Animal Administration
[2]

For the Thiamet G dose dependence study, six 23-day-old male C57BL/6 mice receive single intraperitoneal injections of either 0, 10, 20, 100, 200, or 500 mg/kg of Thiamet G dissolved in PBS and then are euthanized 8 h later to evaluate the O-GlcNAc levels in different tissues (brain, liver, muscle, and knee). The time of sacrifice is chosen on the basis of previously published data on Thiamet G in rodents, which demonstrates that the peak level of O-GlcNAc proteins following administration of the drug is achieved after 8-10 h. Tissues are collected immediately after sacrifice, flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80°C until required for use.

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.
