Product Data:
Biological target: Psammaplin A ia a highly potent and selective DAC1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.9 nM. Psammaplin A possess antimicrobial effects on Gram-positive bacteria and inhibits DNA synthesis and DNA gyrase activity. Psammaplin A also has antitumor activity.
In vitro activity: On bovine parthenogenetic (PA) embryos, psammaplin A demonstrated potent HDAC inhibition. In the embryos, psammaplin A reduced the blastocyst formation rate. Psammaplin A had inhibitory effects on HDAC1 and DNMT1. Psammaplin A treatment enhanced the acetylation level of H3K9 but left DNA methylation relatively unchanged. Psammaplin A induced oxidative stress by increasing ROS generation. Reference: Am J Vet Res. 2023 Feb 21;84(4):ajvr.22.09.0159. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36795551/
In vivo activity: Following intravenous administration in mice, psammaplin A exhibited rapid elimination, with a short average half-life and significant systemic clearance. Psammaplin A was found to be highly distributed to lung tissues, with the lung-to-serum partition coefficients (K(p)) ranging from 49.9 to 60.2. Psammaplin A concentrations in other tissues were either comparable with or less than serum concentrations.
