产品名称：LDN-57444,UbiquitinC-terminalHydrolase-L1(UCH-L1)Inhibitor

LDN-57444 is a novel potent and selective inhibitor of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) with IC₅₀ ~0.88 μM. It has ~28-fold greater selectivity over UCH-L3 (ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L3).  LDN-57444 can increase levels of highly ubiquitinated proteins and decreases ubiquitin proteasome activity. It causes cell death through the apoptosis pathway. LDN-57444’s activity leads to dramatic alterations in synaptic protein distribution and spine morphology in vivo.

How to Use:

• In vitro:  LDN-57444 was used at 5-25 µM final concentration in various in vitro assays.
• In vivo:  LDN-57444 was administered through IP injection at 0.5 mg/kg in a-syn transgenic mice.
