实验参考方法

Cell experiment:

HepG2 cells are grown in 225 cm2 culture flasks, and incubated for 18 h in medium A containing 10% human lipoprotein deficient serum and 1 μM L-654,969 to increase their squalene epoxidase activity. The HepG2 cells are washed and harvested by trypsin treatment. After centrifugation (1000×g, 5 min at 4°C), the supernatant fraction is removed by aspiration. The cell pellet is frozen and kept at -80 °C until use. On the day of the experiment, the stocked cell pellet is thawed, ruptured by sonication (5 s at 4°C) in 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5 containing 1 mM EDTA, mixed with one-fourth volume of 2% Triton X-100, stood at 4°C for 30 min, and assayed for squalene epoxidase activity with some modifications. Aliquots of the mixture are incubated for 90 min at 37 °C with or without test compound (FR194738; 0.01 nM, 0.1 nM, 1 nM, 10 nM, 100 nM, 1 μM, and 10 μM) dissolved in DMSO (final 1%) in a final volume of 0.3 mL containing 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM NADPH, 0.1 mM FAD, 0.3 mM AMO1618, an inhibitor of 2,3-oxidosqualene cyclase, 0.17% Triton X-100, and 8 μM [3H]squalene (3.7 kBq) dispersed in 0.075% Tween 80. The reaction is stopped by the addition of 0.3 mL of 10% ethanolic KOH. After incubation for 90 min at 75°C, non-saponifiable materials are extracted with 2 mL of petroleum ether. The extracts are evaporated under a nitrogen stream. The residue is taken up in a small volume of diethylether, spotted on a silica gel thin layer chromatography (TLC) plate and developed in benzene/ethyl acetate (99.5:0.5, v/v)[1].

Animal experiment:

Hamsters[3]Six-week-old male golden Syrian hamsters (70-110 g) are used. Drugs are administered as a diet mixture for 10 d. Blood samples are collected via heart puncture under ether anesthesia and serum is prepared by centrifugation. The dose of 0.32% in diet corresponds to 127 and 116 mg/kg/d for FR194738 and Pravastatin, respectively, calculated from body weight and food intake.

产品描述

FR194738 is a squalene epoxidase inhibitor. FR194738 inhibits squalene epoxidase activity in HepG2 cell homogenates with an IC50 of 9.8 nM.

In intact HepG2 cells<, FR194738 concentration-dependently inhibits the incorporation of [14C]acetate into free cholesterol and cholesteryl ester, with IC50s of 4.9 and 8.0 nM, respectively. FR194738 induces intracellular [14C]squalene accumulation. FR194738 increases the incorporation of [14C]acetate into squalene, an intermediate of cholesterol synthesis[1]. FR194738 potently inhibits squalene epoxidase (SE) in HepG2 cell homogenate and liver microsomes in dogs and rats. The inhibitory effect of FR194738 in comparison to the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, Simvastatin, Fluvastatin and Pravastatin, on cholesterol biosynthesis in HepG2 cells is examined. Among these compounds, FR194738 is the most potent, with an IC50 of 2.1 nM. The IC50s of Simvastatin, Fluvastatin and Pravastatin are 40, 28 and 5100 nM, respectively[2]. FR194738 inhibits hamster liver microsomal squalene epoxidase activity in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 14 nM[3].

Serum lipid levels in hamsters after daily administration of FR194738 and Pravastatin for 10 d are measured. FR194738 reduces the serum levels of total, non high density lipoprotein (HDL) and HDL cholesterol, and triglyceride. Treatment of hamsters with FR194738 increases HMG-CoA reductase activity by 1.3-fold at 32 mg/kg compared to the control group and does not significantly change that at 100 mg/kg[3].

Squalene Epoxidase Metabolic Dependency Is a Targetable Vulnerability in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Considering the dismal prognosis of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), it is critical to identify novel therapeutic targets in this disease. Malignant cells have metabolic dependencies distinct from their healthy counterparts, resulting in therapeutic vulnerabilities. Although PTEN and TP53 are the most frequently comutated or codeleted driver genes in lethal CRPC, the metabolic dependencies underlying PTEN/p53 deficiency-driven CRPC for therapeutic intervention remain largely elusive. In this study, PTEN/p53 deficient tumors were determined to be reliant on cholesterol metabolism. Moreover, PTEN/p53 deficiency transcriptionally upregulated squalene epoxidase (SQLE) via activation of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2). In addition, PTEN deficiency enhanced the protein stability of SQLE by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/GSK3β-mediated proteasomal pathway. Consequently, SQLE increased cholesterol biosynthesis to facilitate tumor cell growth and survival. Pharmacologic blockade of SQLE with FR194738 profoundly suppressed the invasive program of CRPC. Collectively, these results demonstrate a synergistic relationship between SQLE and PTEN/p53 deficiency in CRPC development and progression. Therefore, pharmacologic interventions targeting SQLE may hold promise for the treatment of patients with CRPC. Significance: This study reveals PTEN and p53 deficiency confers a dependence on SQLE-mediated cholesterol metabolism, providing insights for new therapeutic strategies for treating castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Effect of FR194738, a potent inhibitor of squalene epoxidase, on cholesterol metabolism in HepG2 cells

(E)-N-ethyl-N-(6,6-dimethyl-2-hepten-4-ynyl)-3-[2-methyl-2-(3-thienylmethoxy)propyloxy]benzylamine hydrochloride (FR194738) inhibited squalene epoxidase activity in HepG2 cell homogenates with an IC50 value of 9.8 nM. In the study using intact HepG2 cells, FR194738 inhibited cholesterol synthesis from [14C]acetate with an IC50 value of 4.9 nM, and induced intracellular [14C]squalene accumulation. On the other hand, the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase inhibitor simvastatin reduced both cholesterol and squalene synthesis from [14C]acetate. Incubation with simvastatin for 18 h produced increases in HMG-CoA reductase activity in HepG2 cells, which was related to the degree of reduction in cholesterol synthesis. The HMG-CoA reductase activity increased by 13- and 19-fold at the concentrations of simvastatin that inhibited cholesterol synthesis by 65% and 82%, respectively. In contrast, FR194738 did not increase HMG-CoA reductase activity at the concentrations that inhibited cholesterol synthesis by 24% and 69%, and moderate increase (4.6-fold) was observed at the concentration that inhibited cholesterol synthesis by 90%. These results suggest that non-sterol metabolite(s) derived from mevalonate prior to the squalene epoxidation step in the cholesterol synthetic cascade have a regulatory role in the suppression of HMG-CoA reductase activity. We speculate that FR194738 inhibits cholesterol synthesis with a minimal change of the regulator(s) and would be highly effective in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.

Synthesis and biological activity of a novel squalene epoxidase inhibitor, FR194738

The synthesis and biological properties of a novel squalene epoxidase inhibitor, FR194738, are described. This compound displayed potent in vitro inhibitory activities against squalene epoxidase and cholesterol synthesis, and lowered plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels in dogs.

Inhibition of cholesterol synthesis causes both hypercholesterolemia and hypocholesterolemia in hamsters

Effects of FR194738 ((E)-N-ethyl-N-(6,6-dimethyl-2-hepten-4-ynyl)-3-[2-methyl-2-(3-thienylmethoxy)propyloxy]benzylamine hydrochloride), a squalene epoxidase inhibitor, on lipid metabolism were compared with those of pravastatin, a 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor, in hamsters. Drugs were given for 10 d either as a diet mixture or as a bolus oral gavage, and similar results were obtained with each type of administration. FR194738 (0.01-0.32% as a diet mixture; 10-100 mg/kg as an oral gavage) dose-dependently decreased serum total cholesterol, non high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and the changes in serum parameters were similar. Pravastatin (0.01-0.32% as a diet mixture; 1-100 mg/kg as an oral gavage) increased serum cholesterol levels, and dose-dependently decreased serum triglyceride levels. Although oral gavage of FR194738 at 32 mg/kg and pravastatin at 3.2 and 10 mg/kg increased hepatic HMG-CoA reductase activity, the degree of the changes was far greater with the latter than the former drug. FR194738 slightly increased hepatic cholesterol content at 32 mg/kg, whereas pravastatin dose-dependently increased hepatic cholesterol content until it leveled off at 32 and 100 mg/kg. It is concluded that inhibition of squalene epoxidase and HMG-CoA reductase triggers both hypercholesterolemic (hepatic cholesterol synthesis) and hypocholesterolemic (hepatic cholesterol uptake) mechanisms. FR194738 appears to induce a greater enhancement of the latter rather than the former, whereas pravastatin has a greater effect on the former.
