General description

Mitochondrial Division Inhibitor 1 (Mdivi-1) is a quinazolinone derivative and is cell permeable. It traverses blood-brain barrier and elicits protective functionality in heart and brain ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Application

Mdivi-1 has been used:
  • in embryonic thoracic aorta A7r5 cells to inhibit cell migration and proliferation
  • in mitochondrial network reshaping and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production studies in oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs)
  • to induce mitochondrial damage in lung fibroblasts

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mdivi-1 is a cell-permeable selective inhibitor of mitochondrial division DRP (dynamin-related GTPase) and inhibitor of the mitochondrial division dynamin (Dnm1). Mitochondrial fusion and division play important roles in the regulation of apoptosis. Mdivi-1 is the first selective inhibitor of mitochondrial division dynamins. In principle, Mdivi-1 represents a class of therapeutics for stroke, myocardial infarction, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Discover Bioactive Small Molecules for Apoptosis

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death (PCD), is a selective process for the removal of unnecessary, infected or transformed cells in various biological systems. As it plays a role in the homeostasis of multicellular organisms, apoptosis is tightly regulated through two principal pathways by a number of regulatory and effector molecules.

Discover Bioactive Small Molecules for Cell Cycle Research

n proliferating cells, the cell cycle consists of four phases. Gap 1 (G1) is the interval between mitosis and DNA replication that is characterized by cell growth. Replication of DNA occurs during the synthesis (S) phase, which is followed by a second gap phase (G2) during which growth and preparation for cell division occurs. Together, these three stages comprise the interphase phase of the cell cycle. Interphase is followed by the mitotic (M) phase.
