AS-99
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
AS-99 is a first-in-class, potent, and selective ASH1L histone methyltransferase inhibitor (IC50= 0.79 μM, Kd= 0.89 μM) with anti-leukemic activity. AS-99 blocks cell proliferation, induces apoptosis and differentiation, downregulates MLL fusion target genes, and reduces the leukemia burden in vivo.

ASH1L/KMT2H |
AS-99 is tested against a panel of 20 histone methyltransferases, including NSD1, NSD2, NSD3, and SETD2. NO significant inhibition is observed at 50 μM of AS-99 on any of the tested histone methyltransferases, indicating over 100-fold selectivity towards ASH1L[1].
AS-99 shows a several fold weaker effect on the proliferation of leukemia cells without MLL1 translocations, such as SET2 and K562, with no or limited effects at 10 μM or higher concentrations[1].
AS-99 (1-8 μM; 7 days) also induces apoptosis in the MLL leukemia cells, but not in the K562 cells, as assessed by the quantification of the Annexin V positive cells[1].
AS-99 suppresses MLL fusion driven transcriptional programs[1].
AS-99 results in a reduced number of H3K36me2 peaks when compared to the DMSO-treated cells[1].

Result:Led to a dose-dependent downregulation of canonical MLL fusion target genes required for leukemogenesis including MEF2C, DLX2, FLT3, and HOXA9.
AS-99 is used for in vivo studies in mice, which reveals favorable exposure in plasma upon i.v. and i.p. administration (AUC = 9701 hr* ng/mL and 10,699 hr* ng/mL, respectively), suitable half-life (~5-6 h) and Cmax > 10 μM[1].
