Stiripentol enables direct, mechanism-focused LDH perturbation for seizure-metabolism studies and lactate-centered immunometabolic assays. This guide distinguishes LDH inhibition from MPC manipulation while providing practical preparation, assay, and troubleshooting strategies.

UK-5099 in Immunometabolism: From Flux to Function

2026-09-14

UK-5099 (PF-1005023) is a mitochondrial pyruvate carrier inhibitor that connects transport biology with immune, cellular, and whole-animal phenotypes. This article presents an endpoint-aware framework for interpreting metabolic perturbation rather than treating every response as nonspecific mitochondrial toxicity.

SIRT1/2 Inhibitor IV (cambinol): Evidence Guide

2026-09-13

SIRT1/2 Inhibitor IV (cambinol) is a cell-permeable dual SIRT1/SIRT2 inhibitor with reported biochemical IC50 values of 56 µM and 59 µM, respectively. Product and literature evidence support its use in p53 acetylation, tumor xenograft, hypoxia-response, and SIRT1-linked metabolic pathway research, but the compound is not a selective SIRT1 or SIRT2 probe.

TCAIM Control of OGDH and Mitochondrial Metabolism

2026-09-12

Wang and colleagues identify TCAIM as a mitochondrial DNAJC co-chaperone that selectively binds native OGDH and promotes its reduction through HSPA9 and LONP1. The study establishes a noncanonical proteostasis mechanism that suppresses OGDH complex activity and changes carbohydrate catabolism in cultured cells and murine models.
