General description

A cell-permeable triazine derivative that is shown to increase cellular phosphorylation level of mTOR Ser2448 (20% and 42% above basal in 1 h, respectively, with 1 and 2 µM MHY1485) and downstream substrate 4E-BP Thr37/46 (29% and 34% above basal in 1 h, respectively, with 1 and 2 µM MHY1485) in rat liver Ac2F cells, affecting culture viability only at much higher concentrations (by 20% after 24 h 20 µM treatment). MHY1485 induced cellular LC3-II accumulation in Ac2F (117%, 150%, and 250% of vehicle control LC3-II/LC3-I ratio, respectively, with 0.5, 1, and 2 µM treatment for 6 h; 142% and 172% of control ratio, respectively, with 2 µM treatment for 1 h or 12 h) is reported to be a result of autophagy inhibition due to reduced fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes.

Autophagy is a major degradative process responsible for the disposal of cytoplasmic proteins and dysfunctional organelles via the lysosomal pathway. During the autophagic process, cells form double-membraned vesicles called autophagosomes that sequester disposable materials in the cytoplasm and finally fuse
