Application
6,8-Bis(benzylthio)-octanoic acid has been used as pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) inhibitor:
- to study its effects on neurite outgrowth in primary mouse dorsal root ganglia cells
- to induce α-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) and pro-collagen I expression and to assess PDH enzyme activity in whole-cell lysates
- to validate basal respiration in tissue respirometry
Biochem/physiol Actions
6,8-Bis(benzylthio)-octanoic acid (CPI-613) is a lipoate analog. It acts as a mitochondrial disrupter by blocking the mitochondrial enzymes pyruvate dehydrogenase and α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.
6,8-Bis(benzylthio)-octanoic acid is an E1α pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) modulator that prevents cancer cells from metabolizing glucose for energy. 6,8-Bis(benzylthio)-octanoic acid has been granted orphan drug status by the US FDA for pancreatic cancer.

A metabolic phenomenon known as the Warburg effect has been characterized in certain cancerous cells, embryonic stem cells, and other rapidly proliferative cell types. Previously, our attempts to induce a Warburg-like state pharmaceutically via CPI-613 and PS48 treatment did augment

TGF-β1 reprograms metabolism in renal fibroblasts, inducing a switch from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis. However, molecular events underpinning this are unknown. Here we identify that TGF-β1 downregulates acetyl-CoA biosynthesis via regulation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). Flow cytometry

In humans, chronic glucocorticoid use is associated with side effects like muscle wasting, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. Intermittent steroid dosing has been proposed in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy patients to mitigate the side effects seen with daily steroid intake. We evaluated
