Dyngo-4a
Dyngo-4a(CAS 1256493-34-1) is a dynamin inhibitor that modulates cellular endocytic processes by targeting dynamin isoforms, including DynI and DynII. It inhibits DynI (brain-derived), DynI (recombinant), and DynII (recombinant) activity with IC50 values of approximately 0.38 μM, 1.1 μM, and 2.3 μM respectively. Mechanistically, Dyngo-4a blocks dynamin-mediated vesicle scission, thereby interfering with clathrin-dependent endocytosis. In cell culture, Dyngo-4a reduces β-catenin levels in human cancer cell lines and prevents uptake of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT/A) into hippocampal neurons, blocking toxin-induced cleavage of SNAP25 protein. In rodent models, systemic administration of Dyngo-4a delays muscle paralysis induced by botulinum neurotoxin, highlighting its potential as a research tool in studies of dynamin-dependent signaling pathways and membrane trafficking events.

Kinase assays |
For analysis of the kinetics of inhibition, dynamin I at a final concentration of 17 nM was incubated with GTPase buffer containing PS (2 μg/mL) and varying amounts of GTP (50–250 μM) in the presence of 4a at a concentration range between 0.5 and 6 μM. The reaction was stopped after 30 min by addition of EDTA (0.5 mM, pH7.4). |

Reacting condition |
1~100 μM |
|
Applications |
Dyngo-4a potently inhibited Tfn endocytosis with IC50 values of 5.7±1.0 μM, approximating the activity of the most potent small molecule endocytosis inhibitors previously reported. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |

|
Dosage form |
30 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection |
|
Application |
Mice injected with Dyngo-4a took significantly longer to exhibit clear signs of botulism which indicates that Dyngo-4a pretreatment provides significant protection against botulism. |
|
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
