Biological Activity

Description AK 7 is a brain-permeable selective SIRT2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 15.5 μM.
Targets
SIRT2 [1]
15.5 μM
In vitro

Treatment with AK7 increases lysine 40 (K40) acetylation of α-tubulin in neuronal cells. AK7 ameliorates alpha-synuclein toxicity in vitro[1].

In vivo

AK7 is neuroprotective in models of Parkinson's disease and prevents 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced dopamine depletion and dopaminergic neuron loss in vivo. AK7 does not show beneficial effects in mouse models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and cerebral ischemia[1].
