L-Penicillamine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
L-Penicillamine is an orally active serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) inhibitor. L-Penicillamine inactivates the PLP cofactor by forming adducts, thereby inhibiting SPT activity and reducing sphingolipid biosynthesis. L-Penicillamine not only blocks tumor access to vitamin B6, but also stabilizes the human papillomavirus 16 E6 oncoprotein monomer and inhibits its polymerization, exhibiting a unique anticancer mechanism. L-Penicillamine effectively delays the growth of Sarcoma-180, induces tumor necrosis and prolongs survival (though long-term use may lead to Pyridoxine (HY-B1328) deficiency and weight loss).

Biological Activity
L-Penicillamine (5 mM; 30 min; 25 °C) potently inhibits purified Sphingomonas paucimobilis serine palmitoyltransferase, reducing activity to 3% at 5 mM after 30 minutes at 25 °C, and this inhibition is reversible via dialysis against PLP-containing buffer to restore ~80% enzyme activity[1].
L-Penicillamine (10 mM; 30 min) forms a PLP-thiazolidine adduct with purified Sphingomonas paucimobilis serine palmitoyltransferase, detected via a 333 nm UV-visible peak that forms completely within 30 minutes of 10 mM L-Penicillamine addition, and this adduct is removable by dialysis to regenerate holo-enzyme[1].
L-Penicillamine (2 mM; 12 days; 4 °C) stabilizes monomeric, soluble HPV16 S-E6 fusion protein in dialysis buffer containing 20 μM ZnCl2 and 2 mM DTT, with a zinc-to-protein stoichiometric ratio of ~1:1[2].
L-Penicillamine functions as a weak zinc chelator, with a chelating strength ~100 times weaker than EGTA (HY-D0861) and ~1000 times weaker than EDTA[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
L-Penicillamine (100 mg/kg; p.o.; daily; 7 days via drinking water) produces marked ascitic tumour inhibition in sarcoma-180-bearing CF1 mice on a pyridoxine-deficient diet, with no significant prolongation of median survival time[3].
L-Penicillamine (25-100 mg/kg; s.c., i.p., p.o. intubation, p.o. drinking water; daily; 7 days) produces 21-60% tumour inhibition in sarcoma-180-bearing CF1 mice, while 200 mg/kg daily via subcutaneous injection or stomach intubation is 100% lethal[3].

Animal Model:CF1 white Swiss male mice (initial weight 20 g; subcutaneous implantation of 1×106 ascitic sarcoma-180 cells)[3]
-
Dosage:100 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; ad libitum daily via drinking water
-
Result:Achieved 8-week survival rates of 60%, 80%, 40%, and 40% across four separate experiments.

Observed incomplete tumour regression in an additional 3 of 20 mice.
Caused significantly smaller tumours, with many becoming necrotic, decreasing in size, and being extruded by day 43.

Administration:p.o.; daily; 7 days via drinking water
-
Result:Caused minimal ascitic tumour inhibition and a median survival time of 12.5 days in mice on complete diet.
Caused marked ascitic tumour inhibition and a median survival time of 11 days in mice on pyridoxine-deficient diet.
