Seco Rapamycin  (Synonyms: Seco雷帕霉素; Secorapamycin A)

Seco Rapamycin (Secorapamycin A) is the ring-opened product of Rapamycin. Seco-rapamycin is reported not to affect the mTOR function^[1].

Disposition of Seco Rapamycin in Human Tissue Homogenates and Caco-2 Cell Monolayers. To determine whether Seco Rapamycin (D2) can be metabolized to dihydro Sirolimus (M2), 20μM Seco Rapamycin is incubated with human liver, jejunal mucosal, and Caco-2 homogenates. All of these homogenates produced M2 in an NADPH-dependent manner. Ketoconazole, at a high concentration (100μM), has no effect on the formation of M2 in any of the homogenates examined. To determine whether Seco Rapamycin can be metabolized to M2 in intact cells, 20μM Seco Rapamycin is added to Caco-2 cell monolayers. When applied to the apical compartment, little Seco Rapamycin is detected in the basolateral compartment and in the cellular fraction after 4 h. In addition, little M2 is detected. LY335979 has little effect on the distribution of Seco Rapamycin after an apical dose, although M2 became detectable in the apical compartment. In contrast, when Seco Rapamycin is applied to the basolateral compartment, both Seco Rapamycin and M2 are readily detected in the apical compartment; LY335679 decreases the flux of Seco Rapamycin to the apical compartment and increases the amount of M2 in both apical and basolateral compartments^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
