| Name | Atpenin A5 |
| Description | Atpenin A5 is a potent and highly specific complex II inhibitor (IC50 ~10 nM), as well as an effective mKATP channel agonist and cardioprotective agent [1]. |
| In vitro | Atpenin A5 effectively inhibits submitochondrial particles (SMPs), mitochondria, and cardiomyocytes, exhibiting IC50 values of 8.3 nM, 9.3 nM, and 8.5 nM, respectively. It acts as a potent, specific inhibitor of complex II. Moreover, at a concentration of 1 nM, Atpenin A5 (AA5) activates the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mKATP) channel and offers protection against simulated ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in isolated cardiomyocytes[1]. |
| In vivo | Atpenin A5, a potent succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) inhibitor, promotes cardiomyocyte mitosis and regeneration in the postnatal heart following myocardial infarction (MI). Mice injected with Atpenin A5 (100 μg/kg) showed increased myocardial thickness at the infarct zone and a significant reduction in scar size compared with controls[2]. |
