[CAS NO. 890405-51-3]  3BDO

3BDO inhibits autophagy in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and neuronal cells. It suppresses lipopolysaccharide-induced HUVEC autophagic injury by downregulating the protein levels of NUPR1 (nuclear protein, transcriptional regulator) and TP53 (tumor protein p53), TP53 nuclear translocation and reactive oxygen species overproduction. 3BDO activates MTOR by targeting FKBP1A (FK506-binding protein 1A, 12 kDa). 3BDO greatly decreases the level of a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) derived from the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) of TGFB2, known as FLJ11812, but does not affect TGFB2 expression. ATG13 protein level is decreased along with 3BDO-decreased FLJ11812 level. 3BDO inhibits excessive Aβ (25 to 35) peptide-induced autophagy in PC12 neuronal cells and increased the phosphorylation of RPS6KB1. 3BDO could inhibit human umbilical vein EC (HUVEC) apoptosis and senescence induced by deprivation of serum and basic fibroblast growth factor 2. iT selectively protecteS vascular ECs (VECs) and inhibitS vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation and migration. 3BDO (20-60 μg/ml) could inhibit VEC apoptosis and suppress integrin β4 expression, but it could not depress the ROS level induced by deprivation of serum and FGF-2.
