(3S,4R) -ME-344
(3S,4R) -ME-344 is the (3S,4R) -enantiomer of ME-344. ME-344 is a mitochondrial Heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) inhibitor. ME-344 specifically binds and alters HO-1 structure, and increases HO-1 translocation from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to mitochondria, but only in drug-sensitive cells (such as H460 and SHP-77 cells). ME-344 decreases mitochondrial ATP production and induces ROS, with subsequent disruption of redox homeostasis and mitochondrial function. ME-344 has significant antitumor activity, and can be used for cancers like breast cancer research[1].
