Application

2,4-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid is an in vitro and in cell inhibitor, as well as a known inhibitor of the histone lysine demethylases. 2,4-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid has been used in a study to determine that ruthenium(II) complexes exert antimetastatic effects on several tumor cell lines in vitro, achieved mostly by the effect on cell adhesion, migration and angiogenesis. . 2,4-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid has been used in a study to develop an assay that represents the first report of a RapidFire mass spectrometery assay for an epigenetics target.

In our previous study, ruthenium(II)-p-cymene complexes of general formula [(η(6)-p-cymene)Ru(L)Cl2], L: 3-acetylpyridine (1), 2-amino-5-chloropyridine (2); and [(η(6)-p-cymene)Ru(HL)Cl], HL: 2,3-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (3), 2,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (4), revealed low antiproliferative activity, except complex [(η(6)-p-cymene)RuCl(picolinic acid)]·H(2)O (5) which exhibited IC(50) around 80 μM.

The role of proximal versus distal tubular injury in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI) is debatable. Inhibition of prolyl hydroxylases that regulate the degradation of hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs) is a promising therapeutic approach to optimize energy preservation

The hydrophilic compound pyridine 2,4-dicarboxylate (2,4-PDCA), designed as a mechanism-based competitive inhibitor of prolyl 4-hydroxylase, is efficiently excluded by the cytoplasmic membrane, but permeates the endoplasmic membrane via a 2,4-PDCA-selective translocator to reach its target enzyme in the intracisternal space.

While a role has been ascribed to the gamma-carboxyglutamate (Gla) residues in vitamin K-dependent coagulation proteins and the enzyme catalyzing this posttranslational modification has been identified and partially characterized, both the functional significance of a second posttranslationally synthesized amino acid

Dynamic methylations and demethylations of histone lysine residues are important for gene regulation and are facilitated by histone methyltransferases and histone demethylases (HDMs). KDM5B/Jarid1B/PLU1 is an H3K4me3/me2-specific lysine demethylase belonging to the JmjC domain-containing family of histone demethylases (JHDMs). Several
