SP2509 Usage And Synthesis

Description

SP2509 (1423715-09-6) is a potent (IC50 = 13 nM) and reversible inhibitor of the histone demethylase LSD1 (KDM1A).1 It is inactive against the closely related flavin enzymes MAO A,B as well as lactate dehydrogenase, several CYP’s and hERG. LSD1 regulates the balance between self-renewal and differentiation of stem cells and is highly expressed in various cancers.2-6 SP2509 promotes autophagy in neuroblastoma cells.7

Uses

SP 2509 reduces the effect of the LSD1 binding to CoREST, resulting in increased methylation of H3K4 and driving increased expression of p21, p27 and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α in acute myeloid leukemia cells. Anti-leukemia agent.

General Description

A cell-permeable, lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) active site-targeting phenethylidene-benzohydrazide that inhibits LSD1 activity (IC₅₀ = 13 nM) in a reversible and substrate non-competitive (K_i = 34 nM) manner, while inhibiting CYP3A4 only at much higher concentrations (IC₅₀ = 2.61 μM) and displaying little or no potency towards CYP1A2/2C9/2C19/2D6. MAO-A/B, D-lactate dehydrogenase, glucose oxidase, and hERG (IC₅₀ ≥8.0 μM). Shown to enhance histone H3 Lys9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) in androgen-dependent prostate cancer VCaP cultures (1 to 10 μM) and effectively inhibits LSD1-dependent cancer growth (IC₅₀ in nM = 329/SK-N-MC, 356/AN3 Ca, 429/HT29, 468/MIA PaCa-2, 489/BT-20, 612/HER218, 614/HCT 116, 637/MCF-7, 649/T-47D; 96 h).
