PAD4-IN-2
PAD4-IN-2 is a highly tumor-targeted and irreversible PAD4 inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.94 μM. It selectively recognizes sialic acid on tumor surfaces and accumulates in tumor tissues, with distribution in the cytoplasm of tumor cells and nuclei of neutrophils. PAD4-IN-2 inhibits the PAD4-H3cit-NETs (Neutrophil Extracellular Traps) pathway, reduces senescent tumor-associated neutrophils, and promotes M1 macrophage polarization. The compound exhibits potent anti-tumor and anti-metastatic activities and is suitable for breast cancer research.

Biological Activity
Description
IC50 & Target
IC50: 1.94 μM (PAD4)[1].
In Vitro
PAD4-IN-2 (compound 5i) inhibits PAD4 enzyme activity in a colorimetric assay (IC50 = 1.94 μM) and exhibits negligible cytotoxicity in LLC, 4T1, and normal HL7702 cells after 48 h treatment (IC50 > 100 μM)[1].
PAD4-IN-2 (25-100 μM; 48 h) effectively inhibits the monoclonal proliferation and dose-dependently suppresses the migration of 4T1 cells[1].
PAD4-IN-2 (50–100 μM; 1–48 h) is selectively taken up by 4T1 cells in a time-dependent manner but not by normal HL7702 cells, induces mitochondrial shrinkage and pseudopodia reduction, localizes to neutrophil nuclei to decrease histone H3 citrullination (H3cit) levels, and inhibits neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation[1].

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay
Cytotoxicity assays are usually based on the assessment of cell membrane damage, which can also be indirectly detected by measuring cell viability. Detection methods include MTT assay, CKK-8 assay, LDH assay and ATP assay, etc.

Primary monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation
Primary human monocytes can be differentiated ex vivo into monocyte-derived macrophages by culturing purified blood monocytes for approximately 5-7 days in macrophage-supporting cytokine conditions; M-CSF commonly yields CD14^high/CD163^high macrophages, while GM-CSF yields a phenotypically distinct macrophage population, so the cytokine condition should be chosen according to the downstream model. The readout of successful differentiation is a combined change in morphology, adherence, surface phenotype, and function: differentiated macrophages become adherent, enlarge, acquire macrophage-associated markers such as CD14, CD68, CD163, CD206, or HLA-DR depending on culture condition, and show increased phagocytic capacity compared with starting monocytes.

Breast Cancer Modeling
Breast cancer is a heterogeneous cancer, and it has been distinguished into four subtypes: luminal A, luminal B, HER2-positive and basal-like. Molecular mutations, epigenetic alterations, hormone exposure and immune microenvironment are related to the progression of breast cancer.
