Selisistat (EX 527) was discovered by Elixir scientists as a selective human SIRT1 inhibitor and exhibits >200-fold selectivity against SIRT2 and SIRT3. Human SIRT1 is an enzyme that deacetylates the p53 tumor suppressor protein and has been suggested to modulate p53-dependent functions including DNA damage-induced cell death. It was shown that drug was highly safe in toxicology studies. Selisistat passed Phase II clinical trials to treat Huntington’s disease, but that study was discontinued.

Sample Use Guides

100 mg, immediate release tablets, once daily administration. Subjects in the Fasted group will take study drug after an overnight fast (since at least midnight).
Route of Administration: Oral
It was used EX-527 (selisistat) to examine the role of SIRT1 in p53 acetylation and cell survival after DNA damage. Treatment with EX-527 dramatically increased acetylation at lysine 382 of p53 after different types of DNA damage in primary human mammary epithelial cells and several cell lines. Significantly, inhibition of SIRT1 catalytic activity by EX-527 had no effect on cell growth, viability, or p53-controlled gene expression in cells treated with etoposide. Acetyl-p53 was also increased by the histone deacetylase (HDAC) class I/II inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA). EX-527 and TSA acted synergistically to increase acetyl-p53 levels, confirming that p53 acetylation is regulated by both SIRT1 and HDACs. While TSA alone reduced cell survival after DNA damage, the combination of EX-527 and TSA had no further effect on cell viability and growth. The deacetylation assay was performed with approximately 30 ng of GST-SIRT1 in the presence of EX-527 (48 pM to 100 μM). To determine the effects of deacetylase inhibitors on p53 acetylation levels, cells were treated with 6.25 to 400 nM TSA and/or 1 μM EX-527.
