Zincov
Zincov is an orally active hydroxamic acid derivative and bacterial metalloproteinase inhibitor. Zincov blocks chloride ion binding by binding to the active site of thermolysin, thereby inhibiting the hydrolysis and blood coagulation reactions catalyzed by this enzyme. Meanwhile, Zincov attenuates cytotoxicity, prevents protein degradation and ZO-1 rearrangement without affecting the functions of other common proteases. Zincov exhibits blood glucose-regulating and antioxidant activities; it reduces blood glucose levels and increases liver dry weight in diabetic rats, but elevates blood glucose levels in normal rats. Zincov is widely used in studies related to cholera and diabetes.

Biological Activity
Zincov (0-800 nM; 1 h) inhibits thermolysin-catalyzed FAGLA hydrolysis with a Ki of 180 nM at pH 7.5 and 25°C[1].
Zincov (500 μM; 30 min-3.5 h) potently attenuates HA/P-mediated degradation of occludin in MDCK-I cells[3].
Zincov (500 μM; 15 min) prevents HA/P-mediated rearrangement of ZO-1 in MDCK-I cells[3].

Cell Line:Mardin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cell line I (MDCK-I) cells
-
Concentration:500 μM
-
Incubation Time:30 min; 1 h; 2 h; 3.5 h
-
Result:Greatly attenuated the HA/P-mediated degradation of occludin (66-85 kDa) into 50 kDa and 35 kDa fragments, as shown by preservation of the full-length occludin bands and reduction in the intensity of the degradation product bands.
