Description

AK-7 is a cell- and brain-permeable, selective sirtuin SIRT2 inhibitor (IC50 ~15.5 μM). AK-7 displays no effect on SIRT1 or SIRT3. It diminishes neuronal cell death induced by mutant huntingtin fragment. It also down-regulates cholesterol biosynthetic gene expression and reduces total cholesterol levels in neurons in vivo. In two genetic mouse models of Huntington’s disease, AK-7 treatment resulted in improved motor function, extended survival, and reduced brain atrophy. AK-7 is a good chemical probe to study SIRT2’s roles in metabolic diseases, cancer, age-related disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases.
