NH4-6 is a SIRT2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.032 μM against SIRT2 and an IC50 of 3 μM against SIRT1. NH4-6 inhibits the deacetylase activity of SIRT1. As a cytotoxic agent, NH4-6 reduces cancer cell viability, suppresses anchorage-independent growth of cancer cells, induces acetylation of α-tubulin, and promotes acetylation of p53. NH4-6 can be used in the research of breast cancer.

Description

NH4-6 is a SIRT2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.032 μM against SIRT2 and an IC50 of 3 μM against SIRT1. NH4-6 inhibits the deacetylase activity of SIRT1. As a cytotoxic agent, NH4-6 reduces cancer cell viability, suppresses anchorage-independent growth of cancer cells, induces acetylation of α-tubulin, and promotes acetylation of p53. NH4-6 can be used in the research of breast cancer[1].

In Vitro

NH4-6 potently and selectively inhibits purified SIRT2 deacetylase activity with an IC50 of 0.032 μM, shows weaker activity against SIRT1 and SIRT6, and does not inhibit SIRT3 at 83 μM[1].
NH4-6 (25-50 μM; 6 h for permeability) exhibits weaker cytotoxicity than TM at 25 μM but stronger cytotoxicity at 50 μM in MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, correlating with its concentration-dependent cellular uptake enabled by superior aqueous solubility[1].
NH4-6 (12 μM; 10 days) shows stronger inhibition of anchorage-independent growth than TM at 12 μM in MCF7 breast cancer cells[1].
NH4-6 (25-100 μM; 6 h) increases α-tubulin acetylation (a marker of SIRT2 inhibition) in MCF7 breast cancer cells at 50 μM and 100 μM, but not at 25 μM, consistent with its concentration-dependent cellular uptake[1].
NH4-6 (10-100 μM) inhibits SIRT1 activity (measured via p53 acetylation) in MCF7 breast cancer cells only at a concentration of 100 μM, likely due to its improved solubility enabling sufficient cellular accumulation[1].

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

Cell Proliferation Assay[1]

Cell Line: MCF7, MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells
Concentration: 25 μM, 50 μM
Incubation Time: 6 h
Result: Showed slightly weaker cytotoxicity than TM in both MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 cells at lower concentrations.
Showed stronger cytotoxicity than TM in both cell lines at 50 μM.
Reached intracellular levels of 0.19 μg/million cells after 25 μM treatment and 0.86 μg/million cells after 50 μM treatment, compared to saturated levels of TM (~0.29-0.30 μg/million cells) at both concentrations.

Immunofluorescence[1]

Cell Line: MCF7 breast cancer cells
Concentration: 25 μM; 50 μM; 100 μM
Incubation Time: 6 h
Result: Did not increase α-tubulin acetylation levels at 25 μM.
Increased α-tubulin acetylation levels to levels comparable to TM-treated samples at 50 μM and 100 μM.

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.
