L-Ethionine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
L-Ethionine (L-ETH) is an amino acid derivative. L-Ethionine serves as a substrate for ATP:L-methionine S-adenosyltransferase, which targets its L-stereoisomer. L-Ethionine blocks the synthesis of N6-dimethyladenosine in rat liver tRNA/4S RNA via its major hepatic metabolite S-adenosylethionine, inducing methyl-deficient rat liver tRNA/4S RNA. L-Ethionine can be used in studies of liver cancer and hepatocarcinogenesis mechanisms.

Activité biologique
L-Ethionine (L-ETH) (10 mM; 24-48 h) elevates AFP mRNA levels up to eightfold and albumin mRNA levels up to threefold in primary Balb/cJ mouse hepatocyte cultures after 48 hours of treatment with 10 mM L-ethionine[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
L-Ethionine (10 mg; i.p.; single injection) induces a 10- to 30-fold greater increase in hepatic α-fetoprotein mRNA levels in Balb/cJ mice compared to Balb/cCRBL, C3H/He, and C57BL/6 mice, while leaving hepatic albumin mRNA levels unaffected[3].
L-Ethionine (10-2500 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) exhibits very low acute toxicity in male Swiss mice, with no mortality observed at doses up to 2500 mg/kg and only 1 death at 640 mg/kg over a 7-day observation period[1].

Animal Model:Swiss mice (male, ≤14 weeks, 27-41 grams, fasted)[1]
-
Dosage:10 mg/kg; 20 mg/kg; 40 mg/kg; 100 mg/kg; 200 mg/kg; 320 mg/kg; 640 mg/kg; 1250 mg/kg; 2500 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.p.; single dose
-
Result:Showed no deaths in treated mice at doses of 10, 20, 40, 100, 200, 320, 1250, and 2500 mg/kg.
Caused 1 out of 6 treated mice to die at 640 mg/kg.
Resulted in all deaths occurring within 72 hours of administration.
-
Animal Model:Wistar rats (female)[2]
-
Dosage:0.3% (dietary regimens); 25 μCi (i.p. single dose)
-
Administration:dietary; daily; 4 weeks-3 months; dietary; daily; 4 weeks-3 months followed by 10 days normal diet; i.p.; single dose
-
Result:Completely eliminated N6-dimethyladenosine from rat liver 4S RNA after 4 weeks or 3 months of dietary exposure.
Maintained absence of N6-dimethyladenosine in rat liver 4S RNA after 10 days of normal diet post dietary exposure.
Resulted in eight ethylated nucleotides in liver 4S RNA after single i.p. injection.
Produced no visible ethylated nucleotides in liver 4S RNA from rats fed dietary L-ethionine for 4 weeks or 3 months.
Caused weak ethylation of 4S RNA compared to strong, selective inhibition of N6-dimethyladenosine synthesis.
-
Animal Model:Balb/cJ, Balb/cCRBL, C3H/He, C57BL/6 (female, 7-10 weeks old, fasted 18-42 h prior to reagent injection)[3]
-
Dosage:10 mg
-
Administration:i.p.; single injection
-
Result:Caused significant triglyceride accumulation in hepatic parenchymal cells and increased hepatic α-fetoprotein mRNA levels 48-96 h post-injection.
Increased hepatic α-fetoprotein mRNA levels in Balb/cJ mice 10- to 30-fold higher than in Balb/cCRBL, C3H/He, or C57BL/6 mice.
Reached peak α-fetoprotein mRNA levels 48-72 h post-injection in all strains, with levels returning to normal by day 8.
Left hepatic albumin mRNA levels unchanged across all strains during acute ethionine poisoning.
Elevated serum α-fetoprotein levels 72-96 h post-injection, with levels in Balb/cJ mice higher than in Balb/cCRBL mice.
