Biological Activity:
EX-527 is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of SIRT1 with an IC50 ~98 nM. It does not inhibit histone deacetylase (HDAC) or other sirtuin deacetylase family members (IC50 ~20-100 µM). EX-527 has been used to investigate the relationship between SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of p53, p53 activity, and cell survival following DNA damage, as well as many other biological processes involving SIRT1.
How to Use:
- In vitro: EX-527 was used at 1-10 µM in vitro and in cellular assays.
- In vivo: EX-527 was administered by intracerebroventricular injection to rats at 5-10 µg to increase hypothalamic acetyl-p53 levels by inhibiting hypothalamic SIRT1 activity (formulation: dissolved in DMSO in a total volume of 5 μL).
