CTPI-2 is a mitochondrial citrate carrier SLC25A1 inhibitor (KD=3.5μM). CTPI-2 blocks mitochondrial citrate export, thereby inhibiting glycolysis, PPARγ and its downstream target glucose transporter GLUT4. CTPI-2 regulates lipid synthesis, redox balance and metabolic signaling. CTPI-2 can be used in studies of non-small cell lung cancer, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and obesity-related metabolic diseases[1-4].
In vitro, treatment of H1299 cells and non-small cell lung cancer T1/T2/T3 spheroid CSC cultures with 3μM CTPI-2 for 3 hours inhibited mitochondrial respiratory rate, sphere-forming ability, self-renewal capacity and matrix invasion ability[5]. Pretreatment of A549, NCI-H460, U87-MG and T98G cells with 200μM CTPI-2 for 2 hours prior to ionizing radiation increased radiation-induced DNA damage, delayed the clearance of γH2AX and Rad51, and reduced clonogenic survival fraction. Treatment of NCI-H460 cells with 200μM CTPI-2 for 24 hours reduced viable cell number, increased cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ROS, apoptosis and cell death levels, and decreased KDM4 enzyme activity[6].
In vivo, intraperitoneal injection of 50mg/kg CTPI-2 every other day for 12 weeks in high-fat diet-fed C57BL/6J mice prevented body weight gain or induced weight loss, reduced white visceral adipose tissue and liver mass, reversed hepatic micro- and macrovesicular steatosis and hepatocyte ballooning, decreased serum cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase and triglyceride levels, and restored normal fasting glucose and insulin tolerance/glucose tolerance test curves[7]. Intraperitoneal injection of 50mg/kg CTPI-2 every other day (twice per week) for 6 weeks in fElasCreERT/LSL-KrasG12D/+ double transgenic mice (KrasG12D/4) expressing KRASG12D in pancreatic acinar cells and previously fed a high-fat diet for 6 weeks reduced abdominal fat accumulation, decreased pancreatic tissue lipid droplet content, alleviated pancreatic PanIN lesions and collagen deposition, preserved acinar cell amylase and CK19 expression, and reduced liver fat accumulation[8].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
|
Cell lines |
A549 cells, NCI-H460 cells (human non-small cell lung cancer cell line), U87-MG cells, T98G cells (human glioblastoma cell line) |
|
Preparation Method |
A549, NCI-H460, U87-MG and T98G cells were treated with CTPI-2 at 200μM for 2h before irradiation (5Gy or 30Gy), followed by assays for D-2-HG level (6h after CTPI-2), γH2AX/Rad51 foci (6h and 24h after IR), alkaline comet assay (6h after IR), KDM4 activity (24h CTPI-2), Seahorse OCR/ECAR (24h CTPI-2), NAD+/NADH and NADP+/NADPH ratios (24h CTPI-2), crystal violet viability (24h CTPI-2), flow cytometry for ROS/apoptosis/cell death (24h CTPI-2), and colony formation (2h CTPI-2 + IR 2/5/8Gy). NCI-H460 cells were also treated with CTPI-2 200μM plus PJ34 4μM or NU7447 4μM for 2h before IR. |
|
Reaction Conditions |
200μM; 2h pre-IR (or 24h for metabolic/viability assays) |
|
Applications |
CTPI-2 increased intracellular D-2-HG levels, enhanced radiation-induced γH2AX and Rad51 foci formation and delayed their resolution, augmented alkaline comet tail DNA damage, reduced KDM4 activity, inhibited basal and maximal mitochondrial respiration and mitochondrial ATP production, raised NAD+/NADH and NADP+/NADPH ratios, reduced living cell numbers, elevated cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ROS, apoptosis and cell death, and decreased clonogenic survival of irradiated cells; combining CTPI-2 with PJ34 or NU7447 further increased γH2AX foci and reduced survival. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
|
Animal models |
C57BL/6J mice (diet-induced obesity model) |
|
Preparation Method |
C57BL/6J mice were fed a high-fat diet (60% calories from fat, 20% from sucrose) starting at 4-6 weeks of age. In the prevention study, CTPI-2 was administered at 50mg/kg via intraperitoneal injection on alternate days starting at the same time as high-fat diet initiation for up to 15 weeks. In the reversion study, mice were first fed the high-fat diet for 3 months, then received CTPI-2 at 50mg/kg via intraperitoneal injection on alternate days for 12 weeks. At sacrifice, liver, white adipose tissue, serum and other organs were collected for histopathology, immunohistochemistry (F4/80, Slc25a1), biochemical assays (ALT, cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose), GTT/ITT, MRI, and RNA-seq/qPCR analyses. |
|
Dosage form |
50mg/kg; i.p.; alternate-day injection for 12 weeks |
|
Applications |
CTPI-2 averted body weight gain in the prevention setting and induced weight loss in the reversion setting, reduced white adipose tissue and liver mass, reversed micro- and macrovesicular steatosis and hepatocyte ballooning, normalized serum cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase and triglyceride levels, restored fasting glucose and insulin/glucose tolerance test curves, downregulated Slc25a1 protein in liver and adipose tissue, reduced circulating IL-6/MCP-1/MIG and increased IL-4/IL-10, decreased F4/80-positive Kupffer cells and adipose crown-like structures, suppressed liver TNFα/iNOS/M1 markers and Collagen-1/4/Keratin-19/PDGFR while increasing Catherin-1, lowered hepatic citrate/Ac-CoA/malate/lactate and long-chain TAG/free fatty acids, and repressed SREBP1/FASN/ACACA/PPARγ/CEBPA1/2/GLUT4 and Fbp1/PC/PCK1/2/G6PC/G6PC3/AldoA/B expression. |
