Biological Activity of AY 9944 dihydrochloride

DescriptionInhibitor of hedgehog (Hh) signaling, possibly via several mechanisms. Inhibits Δ7-dehydrocholesterol reductase (IC50 = 13 nM), thus reduces cholesterol biosynthesis, and also inhibits cholesterol esterification. May also directly block the cellular response to Hh proteins. Teratogenic in vivo.

Background on AY 9944 dihydrochloride

AY 9944 dihydrochloride is a selective inhibitor of Δ7-sterol reductase with IC50 value of 13 nM [1].

Δ7-sterol reductase (Dhcr7) is an enzyme and plays an important role in catalyzing the production of cholesterol from 7-Dehydrocholesterol through using NADPH [2, 3].

AY 9944 dihydrochloride is a potentΔ7-sterol reductase inhibitor and has higher inhibition thanΔ7-sterol reductase inhibitor BM15766 and triparanol. When tested with Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressed cDNA without an N-terminal 9E10 c-myc epitope (mycD7-ORF) and 5’ noncoding region (D7-ORF), AY 9944 dihydrochloride exhibited highly inhibition on D7-ORF (recombinant humanΔ7-sterol reductase ) with IC50 value of 13 nM [1]. In PBMCs isolated from AIDS patients, AY 9944 treatment exhibited ability to restore the normal mitogenic responses and cytokine profiles [2].

In Sprague-Dawley rats model of Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome, administration of AY9944 elevated 7-DHC expression and reduced cholesterol in all biological tissues by inhibitingΔ7-sterol reductase [3].

Cholesterol in signal transduction.[Pubmed:10712926]

Curr Opin Cell Biol. 2000 Apr;12(2):193-203.

Membrane cholesterol impinges on signal transduction in several ways, which is highlighted in particular by the Hedgehog signaling pathway. In Hedgehog signaling, cholesterol is important for ligand biogenesis, as well as for signal transduction in receiving cells. Hedgehog ligands are post-translationally modified by cholesterol, and the Hedgehog receptor, Patched, is structurally similar to the Niemann-Pick C1 protein, which functions in intracellular lipid transport. Although the exact role of cholesterol in Hedgehog signal transduction remains elusive and is probably multifaceted, studies over the past year have implicated raft membrane subdomains, cholesterol transport and a link between protein and lipid trafficking in endocytic compartments.

Teratogen-mediated inhibition of target tissue response to Shh signaling.[Pubmed:9616123]

Science. 1998 Jun 5;280(5369):1603-7.

Veratrum alkaloids and distal inhibitors of cholesterol biosynthesis have been studied for more than 30 years as potent teratogens capable of inducing cyclopia and other birth defects. Here, it is shown that these compounds specifically block the Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway. These teratogens did not prevent the sterol modification of Shh during autoprocessing but rather inhibited the response of target tissues to Shh, possibly acting through the sterol sensing domain within the Patched protein regulator of Shh response.

Molecular cloning and expression of the human delta7-sterol reductase.[Pubmed:9465114]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1998 Feb 17;95(4):1899-902.

Inhibitors of the last steps of cholesterol biosynthesis such as AY9944 and BM15766 severely impair brain development. Their molecular target is the Delta7-sterol reductase (EC 1.3.1.21), suspected to be defective in the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome, a frequent inborn disorder of sterol metabolism. Molecular cloning of the cDNA revealed that the human enzyme is a membrane-bound protein with a predicted molecular mass of 55 kDa and six to nine putative transmembrane segments. The protein is structurally related to plant and yeast sterol reductases. In adults the ubiquitously transcribed mRNA is most abundant in adrenal gland, liver, testis, and brain. The Delta7-sterol reductase is the ultimate enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis in vertebrates and is absent from yeast. Microsomes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains heterologously expressing the human cDNA remove the C7-8 double bond in 7-dehydrocholesterol. The conversion to cholesterol depends on NADPH and is potently inhibited by AY9944 (IC50 0.013 microM), BM15766 (IC50 1.2 microM), and triparanol (IC50 14 microM). Our work paves the way to clarify whether a defect in the delta7-sterol reductase gene underlies the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome.

Description

AY 9944 is a specific cholesterol biosynthesis inhibitor. AY 9944 inhibits the 7-dehydro cholesterol Δ7-reductase (DHCR7) enzyme (IC50=13 nM). AY 9944 causes hypocholesterolemia and accumulation of 7DHC. At high doses, AY 9944 inhibits also in cultured embryos sterol Δ7-Δ8 isomerase, which causes the accumulation of cholest-8-en-3β-ol.
