ALT-007 is an orally active serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) inhibitor that selectively reduces the levels of toxic very-long-chain deoxysphingolipids to enhance protein homeostasis. ALT-007 restores aging-related loss of muscle mass in a mouse model of sarcopenia. ALT-007 enhances protein homeostasis in both mouse and C. elegans models of aging and disease. ALT-007 can be used for age-related neuromuscular diseases research.

Description

ALT-007 is an orally active serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) inhibitor that selectively reduces the levels of toxic very-long-chain deoxysphingolipids to enhance protein homeostasis. ALT-007 restores aging-related loss of muscle mass in a mouse model of sarcopenia. ALT-007 enhances protein homeostasis in both mouse and C. elegans models of aging and disease. ALT-007 can be used for age-related neuromuscular diseases research[1].

IC50 & Target

SPT[1]

In Vitro

ALT-007 (10 nM-10 μM) reduces ceramide levels in immortalized mouse C2C12 myoblasts at 10 nM, comparable to Myriocin (HY-N6798)[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

ALT-007 (1 mg/kg, p.o. (mixed with the food), daily for 20 weeks) enhances physical fitness in aged mice model of sarcopenia, evidenced by improved muscle function and aerobic capacity[1].
ALT-007 (1 and 5 μM) ameliorates age-related decline across species, improving proteostasis to extend lifespan and reduce proteotoxicity in C. elegans[1].
ALT-007 (4 mg/kg, p.o. (mixed with the food), daily for 10 days) is well-tolerated and effectively reduces muscle ceramide levels in mice[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Displayed no gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity compared to untreated controls.
Showed no difference in the glucose tolerance test compared to the aged control group.
Increased lean mass in aged mice, suggesting elevated muscle mass after 11 weeks.
Increased muscle weight in aged mice measured after 20 weeks.
Displayed lower levels of total ceramides in aged mice.
Impacted several age-related gene sets such as mitochondrial and proteostasis pathways, amino acids and biosynthetic processes, and neuronal-related gene sets.
Significantly attenuated ribosomal and translation pathways.
Promoted the enrichment of several proteostasis pathways (e.g., autophagy, unfolded protein response) in skeletal muscle of aged mice.
Resulted in remarkable upregulation of neurogenesis pathways in the muscle of aged mice.
Attenuated 1-Deoxy-SLs of very long chain, particularly 1-deoxyCer 22, 1-deoxyCer 24:1 and the sphingoid base N−C24:1-deoxysphinganine in the gastrocnemius muscle.
Attenuated the age-related increase in 1-deoxy-SLs in the brain.
Animal Model: C. elegans Strains (GMC-101, CL2120, and CL2122 as a control)[1]
Dosage: 1 μM
Administration: from the embryonic stage
Result: Reduced paralysis induced by amyloid beta aggregation when assessed at day 1 of adulthood.
Decreased amyloid-beta protein aggregates.
Animal Model: Male C57BL/6J mice[1]
Dosage: 4 mg/kg
Administration: p.o. (mixed with the food), daily for 10 days
Result: Showed no differences in body weight and food intake compared to DMSO control mice.
Displayed no hepatic or muscle toxicity, as indicated by plasma levels of transaminases (AST, ALT) and creatine kinase (CK) comparable to controls.
Effectively decreased ceramide levels in the gastrocnemius muscle, with a stronger effect on very long-chain (VLC) species.
Animal Model: C. elegans Strains (wild-type Bristol N2)[1]
Dosage: 5 μM
Administration: starting from day 1 of adulthood
Result: Significantly increased median and maximal lifespan.
Was non-toxic for animal development when administered from the embryo stage, with animals exhibiting normal growth.

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.69 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
