Product Data
Biological target:
AGK2 is a selective SIRT2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 3.5 μM. AGK2 inhibits SIRT1 and SIRT3 with IC50s of 30 and 91 μM, respectively.
In vitro activity:
To elucidate the effect of AGK2 on hepatitis B virus replication in vitro, the HepAD38 cells were treated with AGK2 at the concentration of 10μM, and Entecavir (25nM) was used as positive control. After treatment for seven days, total RNAs and 3.5kb RNA was extracted and subjected to real-time PCR. The HBV RNAs include 0.7kb X mRNA, 2.4kb and 2.1kb surface protein mRNAs, 3.5kb precore (pc) RNA and pregenomic (pg) RNA. Interestingly, AGK2 decreased HBV 3.5kb and total RNAs in HepAD38 cells (Fig. 2A-2B). Consistently, Northern blot confirmed that AGK2 inhibited HBV 3.5kb and 2.4/2.1kb RNAs. (Fig. 2C). Real-time PCR and Southern blot also showed that HBV DNA replicative intermediates in cells were reduced (Fig. 2D-2E). Furthermore, HBV core protein (HBc) was detected by Western blot, and the expression levels of HBsAg and HBeAg in cell supernatants were determined by ELISA. Consistently, AGK2 also inhibited the HBc expression, as well as HBsAg and HBeAg secretions. (Fig. 2F-2H).

In vivo activity:
In AGK2 group, liver tissues shown slight tissue damage compared with control group. However, TAA group displayed massive hemorrhagic necrosis, liver lobules with disturbed architecture, remarkable inflammatory cells infiltration. Whereas, in AGK2 + TAA group, the hepatocyte necrosis was improved obviously, and the numbers of infiltrative inflammatory cells were significantly reduced (Fig. 1A). Similarly, the histological score of liver in AGK2 + TAA group was lower than TAA group (Fig. 1B). In addition, the 24 h survival rate of TAA-induced mice was observed in each group. The results showed that 86.7% of mice survived in AGK2 + TAA group, whereas only 60.0% in TAA group (Fig. 1C). Finally, this study assessed the plasma levels of hepatic enzymes in each group. TAA group showed significant increases in levels of ALT and AST. However, treatment with AGK2 significantly decreased the abnormal increase of AST and ALT levels (Fig. 1D, E).
