More Info
Ionizing radiation (IR) triggers mitochondrial overproduction of H2O2 and accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides leading to the induction of apoptotic and necroptotic cell death pathways. Exposure of eukaryotic cells to ionizing radiation (IR) results in a burst of species with high energy (eaq−; H•, HO•, and O2−•) and indiscriminate reactivity with biomolecules, including DNA, on the millisecond time scale.1 Studies by Patt, Bacq, and others have established that aminothiols such as cysteine and cysteamine protect mice from short-lived radiolytic intermediates.2−4 Humans, however, do not tolerate the doses of cysteine and cysteamine, which would be required for analogous protection, and the early hope that these compounds might be useful as radiation protectors (RPs) has
not been realized.
Biological target:
MitoEbselen-2, also known as MitoPeroxidase-2, is a radiation mitigator which reduces lipid hydroperoxides.
In vitro activity:
Exposure of MEC to γ-irradiation (10 Gy) resulted in ∼28% cell death (Figure 2B), whereas treatment with MitoEbselen-2 (MitoPeroxidase 2), prior to or 30 min postirradiation, afforded radioprotection/mitigation. 20 μM MitoPeroxidase 2 afforded ∼50% radioprotection/mitigation. In this model system, MitoEbselen-2 (MitoPeroxidase 2) acted as a potent inhibitor of radiation-induced activation of caspase 3 (Figure 3), an executioner caspase in apoptosis. Treatment of irradiated MEC with 3-hydroxypropyl(triphenyl)phosphonium chloride, which structurally mimics the triphenylphosphonium moieties of MitoPeroxidases 1 and 2, did not afford any radiomitigation (data not shown).

In vivo activity:
Groups of 15 mice were treated with MitoPeroxidase 2 i.v. at 24 h after WBI. As shown in Figure 4, at two different radiation doses, administration of MitoPeroxidase 2 afforded an increase in survival.
