| 1 | The novel BRDT inhibitor NHWD870 shows potential as a male contraceptive in mice显示文摘Small molecule inhibitors of the bromodomain and extraterminal domain(BET)family proteins have emerged as promising options not only for the treatment of multiple cancers but also for disturbing the process of sperm maturation with potential for use as viable contraceptive targets.In this study,we find that the BET family inhibitor NHWD870 and BRDT can bind well in vitro through bioinformatics software prediction and protein binding inhibition experiments.NHWD870 can produce a good contraceptive effect through animal experiments in vivo,and the fertility can be restored to normal after drug withdrawal.Transcriptomics and proteomics results suggest that NHWD870 affects pathways related to spermatogenesis and maturation,further contributing to the male infertility phenotype.Our results show that NHWD870 can induce a complete and reversible contraceptive effect in mice,which is stronger than that of JQ1 and its synthesized derivatives.This study is expected to eventually lead to clinical trials. | Sixian Wu Xiaoliang Li Lijun Shang Lvying Wu Tongtong Li Peiyv Li Zhiliang Ji Jianwen Hou Mingzhu Yin Wenming Xu | 2022 | Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica2022，54，12： | 1 |
