CAXII-IN-4
CAXII-IN-4 is a human carbonic anhydrase XII (hCA XII) inhibitor with Ki values of 4.9, 3079, 62.5 and 58.4 nM against hCA XII, hCA I, hCA II and hCA IX, respectively, showing high selectivity toward tumor-associated hCA XII. CAXII-IN-4 binds to the active site of hCA XII via a classic sulfamide binding mode, coordinates with Zn2+, forms a hydrogen bond with Ser133, and stabilizes the enzyme complex to reduce structural deviation. CAXII-IN-4 possesses both lipophilicity and polarity, and is predicted to have superior membrane permeability and oral absorbability. CAXII-IN-4 can be used in studies related to tumor-associated carbonic anhydrase inhibition.

In Vitro
CAXII-IN-4 (15j) (0.01-10 mM; 15 min) potently and selectively inhibits the tumor-associated human carbonic anhydrase XII isoform, with a Ki value of 4.9 nM, while exhibiting much weaker activity against hCA I, hCA II and hCA IX[1].
CAXII-IN-4 has predictable physicochemical properties, which indicate its favorable membrane permeability and potential for oral absorption compared with related compounds and the reference inhibitor acetazolamide[1].
CAXII-IN-4 binds to the active site of hCA XII via classic Zn2+ coordination and an additional hydrogen bond with Ser133, forming a stable and selective binding conformation[1].
CAXII-IN-4 forms a stable complex with hCA XII, which is evidenced by reduced structural fluctuations (lower RMSD) and persistent active site interactions during 50 ns molecular dynamics simulations[1].

Transepithelial/transendothelial electrical resistance assay
TEER measures electrical resistance across epithelial or endothelial monolayers cultured on permeable supports, and the readout reflects ionic conductance through the cell barrier, especially the paracellular pathway regulated by junctional integrity. TEER can be measured without destroying the monolayer and is commonly used before or during transport, permeability, barrier-disruption, and barrier-maturation experiments. TEER values are influenced by biological maturation and technical conditions; reported factors include temperature, medium formulation, passage number, electrode geometry, membrane properties, and junctional length during early monolayer maturation. Therefore, TEER should be interpreted with blank-insert subtraction, area normalization, repeated readings, and, when possible, orthogonal barrier readouts such as FITC-dextran flux or tight-junction staining.
