In Vitro Activity
CPC was a competitive inhibitor with respect to both cystathionine and cysteine in the canonical and H2S synthesis reactions, respectively. The lower Ki value in the cystathionine (50 ± 3 μm) versus cysteine (180 ± 15 μm) cleavage assay suggests that CPC competes more effectively against the longer cystathionine versus the shorter cysteine substrate. The Kd(app) for CPC binding to CSE was 26 ± 3 μm. In cell culture, CPC inhibited the transsulfuration flux, an indicator of the canonical CSE reaction; ≥80% inhibition was observed in HepG2 cells at a concentration of 2.5 mm CPC (Fig. 5A).
