LYS05

Application

Lys05 has been used as an autophagy inhibitor to study its interactions with piperazine. It has also been used as a lysosomal inhibitor to study its effects on myogenesis in Gallus gallus.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lys05 (Lys01 trihydrochloride) is a dimeric chloroquine (CQ) that deacidifies the lysosome and causes impairment of lysosomal enzymes, exhibiting more than 10-fold higher autophagy inhibitory potency than hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and CQ (LC3II/LC3I ratio = 15.4 post 4 hr 10 µM treatment in LN229 glioblastoma cells vs. ﹤6.4 with 100 µM CQ or HCQ). Lys05 also shows higher anticancer activity both in vitro (IC50 3.6-6.0 µM vs. 15.6-23.8 µM with HCQ in 1205Lu, c8161, LN229, HT-29 cultures) and in mice in vivo (EC50 in reducing tumor growth rate ~10 mg/kg/day i.p.; HT29 xenografts) with toxicity observed only at high doses (≥80 mg/kg) as a result of significant lysozyme reduction.
