Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

MF-438 is a potent and orally bioavailable SCD inhibitor. MF-438 exhibits good pharmacokinetics and metabolic stability, thereby serving as a valuable tool for further understanding the role of SCD inhibition in biological and pharmacological models of diseases related to metabolic disorders. Co-treatment with cisplatin and MF-438 reverts upregulation of CSCs markers, strongly synergizes in the inhibition of 3D spheroids formation and induces CSCs apoptosis.

Product Data
Biological target:
MF-438 is a potent and orally bioavailable stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.3 nM for rSCD1.
In vitro activity:
A series of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) inhibitors were developed. Investigations of enzyme potency and metabolism led to the identification of the thiadiazole-pyridazine derivative MF-438 as a potent SCD1 inhibitor. Reference: Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2010 Jan 15;20(2):499-502. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20004097/
In vivo activity:
Female Wistar rats with an average weight of 200±20 g were subjected to this study. After mating, pregnant rats were divided into three groups and gavaged with the vehicle, MF 438 or MF-438 plus oleate from day 3 of pregnancy for five days. elatively, deficient morphological indices and hepatic maturation markers were observed in fetus livers of the inhibitor-treated group. In comparison to the other two groups, total hepatic protein and glycogen content were increased with treatment of MF-438 plus oleate. Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1α, alpha fetoprotein, albumin, and cytochrome P450 gene expression were also significantly increased in the group treated with both MF-438 and oleate.
