CuATSM is a potent radical-trapping antioxidant and (phospho)lipid peroxidation inhibitor, with a mechanism differing from conventional antioxidants like alpha-tocopherol. Its ability to reversibly bind peroxyl radicals allows for effective ferroptosis inhibition. Experiments demonstrate CuATSM's high potency in rescuing ferroptosis, with compounds like CuATSP showing even greater efficacy.
Herein we demonstrate that copper(II)-diacetylbis(N-4-methylthiosemicarbazone)(CuATSM), clinical candidate for the treatment of ALS and Parkinson's disease, is a highly potent radical-trapping antioxidant (RTA) and inhibitor of (phospho)lipid peroxidation. In THF autoxidations, CuATSM reacts with THF-derived peroxyl radicals with k(inh) = 2.2 x 10(6) M-1 s(-1). roughly 10-fold greater than alpha-tocopherol (alpha-TOH), Nature's best RTA. Mechanistic studies reveal no H/D kinetic isotope effects and a lack of rate-suppressing effects from H-bonding interactions, implying a different mechanism from alpha-TOH and other canonical RTAs, which react by H-atom transfer (HAT). Similar reactivity was observed for the corresponding Ni2+ complex and complexes of both Cu2+ and Ni2+ with other bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligands. Computations corroborate the experimental finding that rate-limiting HAT cannot account for the observed RTA activity and instead suggest that the reversible addition of a peroxyl radical to the bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligand is responsible. Subsequent HAT or combination with another peroxyl radical drives the reaction forward, such that a maximum of four radicals are trapped per molecule of CuATSM. This sequence is supported by spectroscopic and mass spectrometric experiments on isolated intermediates. Importantly, the RTA activity of CuATSM (and its analogues) translates from organic solution to phospholipid bilayers, thereby accounting for its (their) ability to inhibit ferroptosis. Experiments in mouse embryonic fibroblasts and hippocampal cells reveal that lipophilicity as well as inherent RTA activity contribute to the potency of ferroptosis rescue, and that one compound (CuATSP) is almost 20-fold more potent than CuATSM and among the most potent ferroptosis inhibitors reported to date.
