產品描述: BEC hydrochloride is a slow-binding and competitive Arginase II inhibitor with Ki of 0.31 μM and 30 nM at pH 7.5 and pH 9.5, respectively |
靶點:
Ki: 0.31 μM (BEC hydrochloride, at pH 7.5) and 30 nM (BEC hydrochloride, at pH 9.5);Arginase |
體外研究:
The X-ray crystal structure of the arginase-BEC complex has been determined at 2.3 ? resolution from crystals perfectly twinned by hemihedry. The structure of the complex reveals that the boronic acid moiety undergoes nucleophilic attack by metal-bridging hydroxide ion to yield a tetrahedral boronate anion that bridges the binuclear manganese cluster, thereby mimicking the tetrahedral intermediate (and its flanking transition states) in the arginine hydrolysis reaction. |
體內研究:
Administration of the arginase inhibitor BEC decreases arginase activity and causes alterations in NO homeostasis, which are reflected by increases in S-nitrosylated and nitrated proteins in the lungs from inflamed mice. BEC enhances perivascular and peribronchiolar lung inflammation, mucus metaplasia, NF-κB DNA binding, and mRNA expression of the NF-κB-driven chemokine genes CCL20 and KC, and leads to further increases in airways hyperresponsiveness. Animal Model: C57BL/6J wild-type mice, mice deficient in arginase 2 (Arg2-/-), mice deficient in both arginase 1 and 2 (Arg1-/-Arg2-/-), and mice deficient in NOX2 (NOX2-/- Dosage: 20 mg/kg. Administration: I.V., in 0.9% saline, 1 hour before the injection of LPS. Result: BEC robustly reduced VEGF expression in neuroglia (72% reduction) and macrophage/microglia (87% reduction). |
