More Info
Biological target:
PR-619 is a broad-range and reversible DUB inhibitor with EC50s of 3.93, 4.9, 6.86, 7.2, and 8.61 μM for USP4, USP8, USP7, USP2, and USP5, respectively.
In vitro activity:
To assess the cytotoxic potential of PR-619, OLN-t40 cells were incubated for 24 h with various concentrations. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay and revealed that PR-619 exerted concentration-dependent cytotoxicity in a very narrow concentration range of 7–10 μM. Half maximal cytotoxicity was observed after a 24 h treatment with 9–10 μM, which also caused the cells to retract their processes and appear morphologically damaged (Fig. 1A, B). Fig. 1C demonstrates that PR-619 (up to 40 μM) added directly to a cell lysate for 30 min did not exert a significant inhibitory effect on proteasomal activity, while MG-132 (10 μM) completely abolished proteasomal activity in cell lysates within 30 min. In contrast thereto, when live cells were incubated with PR-619 (9 μM, 24 h) proteasomal activity was reduced to 50% (Fig. 1C). After treatment with MG-132 (3 μM, 24 h) proteasomal activity was impaired and remained at a 40% level. Hence, PR-619, unlike MG-132, did not inhibit the enzymatic activity of the proteasome in cellular lysates but only when taken up by living cells.

In vivo activity:
Either the vehicle (dimethyl sulfoxide) or PR-619 (100 μg) was intraperitoneally administered to mice after UUO induction once a day for 7 days. Administration of PR-619 attenuated renal fibrosis with downregulation of mesenchymal markers, extracellular matrix proteins, matrix metalloproteinases, apoptosis, macrophage infiltration, and the TGF-β1 mRNA level in UUO mice. Although type I TGF-β receptor (TGF-βRI), Smad2, Smad3, and Smad4 protein expression levels were markedly increased in mice with UUO, administration of PR-619 suppressed only Smad4 expression but not TGF-βRI, Smad2, or Smad3 expression. PR-619 also had an inhibitory effect on TGF-β1-induced α-smooth muscle actin expression and reduced Smad4 levels in NRK-49F cells. These results indicate that PR-619 ameliorates renal fibrosis, which is accompanied by the reduction of Smad4 expression.
