L-Buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine hydrochloride is a cell-permeable, potent, fast acting, orally active and irreversible inhibitor of g-glutamylcysteine synthetase and depletes cellular glutathione levels. The IC 50 value of L-Buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine onIn Vitro:L-Buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO: 50 μM) treatment for 48 hr results in a 95% decrease in ZAZ and M14 melanoma cell line GSH levels, and a 60% decrease in GST enzyme activity. GST-π protein and mRNA levels are significantly reduced in both cell lines.In Vivo:BSO causes an elevated frequency of DNA deletions during mouse development. BSO treatment reduced GSH concentration in mouse fetuses by 55% and 70% at 2 mM and 20 mM BSO doses, respectively, compared to untreated mice.
