Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) is an inorganic compound composed of ammonium cations and tetrathiomolybdate(VI) anions. Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) is commonly used in metabolic research of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and as a chelating agent for heavy metal detoxification[1]. The chemical formula of Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) is (NH₄)₂MoS₄. Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) serves as a source of molybdenum in biological systems. Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) is particularly valuable in the study of molybdenum-dependent enzymes such as sulfite oxidase and xanthine oxidase[2]. The thiolate ligands in this compound enable Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) to act as a chelator, binding to heavy metals like copper and iron.The neuroprotective effects of Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate (VI) are receiving extensive attention in cerebral ischemia research[3]. Additionally, Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) copper chelation complexes exhibit antibacterial properties[4].
In vitro, AC16 cardiomyocytes were treated with Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) (20μM). Pre-treatment with Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) significantly increased cell viability, indicating Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) protective effect against copper-induced cytotoxicity[5]. In HeLa cells, treatment with Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) (20μM) failed to affect the increase in LC3-II levels induced by ML-SA5 (1μM) and could not reverse the autophagy-inhibiting effect of ML-SA5[6].
In vivo, a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (tMCAO, ischemia for 90 minutes) was established. Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) (10mg/kg) was administered intravenously immediately before reperfusion, followed by continuous intravenous infusion at 10mg/kg/h for 60 minutes. This treatment improved the motor coordination and spontaneous movement duration of tMCAO mice and reduced the infarct area[7]. In a model of endometriosis induced by autologous uterine tissue transplantation in TNFR1⁻/⁻ female C57BL/6 mice, oral administration of Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) (0.3mg) for 1 month resulted in the chelation of copper ions, downregulation of estradiol levels and angiogenesis-related genes, inhibition of cell proliferation, and induction of oxidative stress. These effects collectively slowed the progression of endometriosis in TNFR1⁻/⁻ mice[8].

Cell lines |
AC16 cardiomyocytes |
|
Preparation Method |
AC16 cardiomyocytes were seeded into 96-well plates with 5 × 103 cells per well and cultured for 24 hours. The cells were then treated with different concentrations (0, 10, 20, 50, and 100μM) of Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI). Cell viability was assessed using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay after 48 hours of treatment. |

| Animal experiment [2]: | |
|
Animal models |
TNFR1⁻/⁻ female C57BL/6 mice |
|
Preparation Method |
Female TNFR1⁻/⁻ C57BL/6 mice (2 months old) were used to induce endometriosis by autologous uterine tissue transplantation to the intestinal mesentery. From the 15th postoperative day, the mice received oral administration of 0.3mg Ammonium tetrathiomolybdate(VI) daily until sacrifice at 1 month post-induction. |
