Olaparib, also known as AZD-2281 or KU-59436, is a small-molecule inhibitor of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) with potential chemosensitizing, radiosensitizing, and antineoplastic activities. Olaparib selectively binds to and inhibits PARP, inhibiting PARP-mediated repair of single strand DNA breaks; PARP inhibition may enhance the cytotoxicity of DNA-damaging agents and may reverse tumor cell chemoresistance and radioresistance. PARP catalyzes post-translational ADP-ribosylation of nuclear proteins and can be activated by single-stranded DNA breaks.

Could you provide me some references about the biological effect of Olaparib?
Olaparib's inhibition of PARP can cause the accumulation of DNA damage in cancer cells, particularly those with defective homologous recombination repair. This accumulation of damage can result in cell death.

How to synthesize olaparib? And what class of compounds does it belong to?
Olaparib is a member of the class of N-acylpiperazines obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 2-fluoro-5-[(4-oxo-3,4-dihydrophthalazin-1-yl)methyl]benzoic acid with the free amino group of N-(cyclpropylcarbonyl)piperazine. It is a N-acylpiperazine, a member of cyclopropanes, a member of monofluorobenzenes and a member of phthalazines.

What is the mechanism of the antitumor activity of olaparib?
Olaparib is a small molecule inhibitor of the nuclear enzyme poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), Olaparib selectively binds to and inhibits PARP, inhibiting PARP-mediated repair of single strand DNA breaks; PARP inhibition may enhance the cytotoxicity of DNA-damaging agents and may reverse tumor cell chemoresistance and radioresistance. PARP catalyzes post-translational ADP-ribosylation of nuclear proteins and can be activated by single-stranded DNA breaks, resulting in disruption of cellular homeostasis and cell death.

How well does olaparib bind to proteins?
The protein binding of olaparib is approximately 82% in vitro. In solutions of purified proteins, the olaparib fraction bound to albumin was approximately 56% and the fraction bound to alpha-1 acid glycoprotein was 29%.

Dear Sirs! Can you introduce the IC50 value of Olaparib for PARP1 and PARP2?
Olaparib is a potent PARP inhibitor with IC50s of 5 and 1 nM for PARP1 and PARP2, respectively.

cause an increase in fluorescence intensity of Calu-6 tumors
I think it is not bad. In my cell experiment, Olaparib can cause an increase in fluorescence intensity of Calu-6 tumors.

inhibit DNA repair
Amazingly! Olaparib works by inhibiting PARP enzymes, leading to the trapping of PARP on DNA. This interference prevents the repair of single-strand DNA breaks.

suppress BRCA1 deficient breast cancer cell line
After several experiments, we made a conclusion that Olaparib could suppress BRCA1 deficient breast cancer cell line. I was surprised at the finding.
