Cyclocreatine is a planar creatine analog that can passively transit across membranes, including the blood brain barrier, and is phosphorylated and dephosphoryated by mitochondrial and cytosolic creatine kinase. Cyclocreatine can function as a phosphagen in mouse brain in vivo and has been used to reverse cognitive deficits in Slc6a8-/y mice that lack a functional creatine transporter.

Cyclocreatine Suppresses Creatine Metabolism and Impairs Prostate Cancer Progression
Cancer Res 2022 Jul 18;82(14):2565-2575.PMID:35675421DOI:10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-21-1301.
Prostate cancer is the second most common cause of cancer mortality in men worldwide. Applying a novel genetically engineered mouse model (GEMM) of aggressive prostate cancer driven by deficiency of the tumor suppressors PTEN and Sprouty2 (SPRY2), we identified enhanced creatine metabolism as a central component of progressive disease. Creatine treatment was associated with enhanced cellular basal respiration in vitro and increased tumor cell proliferation in vivo. Stable isotope tracing revealed that intracellular levels of creatine in prostate cancer cells are predominantly dictated by exogenous availability rather than by de novo synthesis from arginine. Genetic silencing of creatine transporter SLC6A8 depleted intracellular creatine levels and reduced the colony-forming capacity of human prostate cancer cells. Accordingly, in vitro treatment of prostate cancer cells with Cyclocreatine, a creatine analog, dramatically reduced intracellular levels of creatine and its derivatives phosphocreatine and creatinine and suppressed proliferation. Supplementation with Cyclocreatine impaired cancer progression in the PTEN- and SPRY2-deficient prostate cancer GEMMs and in a xenograft liver metastasis model. Collectively, these results identify a metabolic vulnerability in prostate cancer and demonstrate a rational therapeutic strategy to exploit this vulnerability to impede tumor progression. Significance: Enhanced creatine uptake drives prostate cancer progression and confers a metabolic vulnerability to treatment with the creatine analog Cyclocreatine.
Creatine and creatinine metabolism
Physiol Rev 2000 Jul;80(3):1107-213.PMID:10893433DOI:10.1152/physrev.2000.80.3.1107.
The goal of this review is to present a comprehensive survey of the many intriguing facets of creatine (Cr) and creatinine metabolism, encompassing the pathways and regulation of Cr biosynthesis and degradation, species and tissue distribution of the enzymes and metabolites involved, and of the inherent implications for physiology and human pathology. Very recently, a series of new discoveries have been made that are bound to have distinguished implications for bioenergetics, physiology, human pathology, and clinical diagnosis and that suggest that deregulation of the creatine kinase (CK) system is associated with a variety of diseases. Disturbances of the CK system have been observed in muscle, brain, cardiac, and renal diseases as well as in cancer. On the other hand, Cr and Cr analogs such as Cyclocreatine were found to have antitumor, antiviral, and antidiabetic effects and to protect tissues from hypoxic, ischemic, neurodegenerative, or muscle damage. Oral Cr ingestion is used in sports as an ergogenic aid, and some data suggest that Cr and creatinine may be precursors of food mutagens and uremic toxins. These findings are discussed in depth, the interrelationships are outlined, and all is put into a broader context to provide a more detailed understanding of the biological functions of Cr and of the CK system.
Cyclocreatine protects against ischemic injury and enhances cardiac recovery during early reperfusion
Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther 2019 Sep;17(9):683-697.PMID:31483166DOI:10.1080/14779072.2019.1662722.
Introduction: A critical mechanism of how hypoxia/ischemia causes irreversible myocardial injury is through the exhaustion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cyclocreatine (CCr) and its water-soluble salt Cyclocreatine-Phosphate (CCrP) are potent bioenergetic agents that preserve high levels of ATP during ischemia. Areas covered: CCr and CCrP treatment prior to the onset of ischemia, preserved high levels of ATP in ischemic myocardium, reduced myocardial cell injury, exerted anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic activities, and restored contractile function during reperfusion in animal models of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), global cardiac arrest, cardiopulmonary bypass, and heart transplantation. Medline and Embase (1970 - Feb 2019), the WIPO databank (up to Feb 2019); no language restriction. Expert opinion: This review provides the basis for a number of clinical applications of CCrP and CCr to minimize ischemic injury and necrosis. One strategy is to administer CCrP to AMI patients in the pre-hospital phase, as well as during, or after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) procedure to potentially achieve protection of the myocardium, reduce infarcted-size, and, thus, limit the progression to heart failure. Another clinical applications are in predictable myocardial ischemia where pretreatment with CCrP would likely improve outcome and quality of life of patients who will undergo cardiopulmonary bypass for coronary revascularization and end-stage heart failure patients scheduled for heart transplantation.
TREM2 Maintains Microglial Metabolic Fitness in Alzheimer's Disease
Cell 2017 Aug 10;170(4):649-663.e13.PMID:28802038DOI:10.1016/j.cell.2017.07.023.
Elevated risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with hypomorphic variants of TREM2, a surface receptor required for microglial responses to neurodegeneration, including proliferation, survival, clustering, and phagocytosis. How TREM2 promotes such diverse responses is unknown. Here, we find that microglia in AD patients carrying TREM2 risk variants and TREM2-deficient mice with AD-like pathology have abundant autophagic vesicles, as do TREM2-deficient macrophages under growth-factor limitation or endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Combined metabolomics and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) linked this anomalous autophagy to defective mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling, which affects ATP levels and biosynthetic pathways. Metabolic derailment and autophagy were offset in vitro through Dectin-1, a receptor that elicits TREM2-like intracellular signals, and Cyclocreatine, a creatine analog that can supply ATP. Dietary Cyclocreatine tempered autophagy, restored microglial clustering around plaques, and decreased plaque-adjacent neuronal dystrophy in TREM2-deficient mice with amyloid-β pathology. Thus, TREM2 enables microglial responses during AD by sustaining cellular energetic and biosynthetic metabolism.
Cyclocreatine in cancer chemotherapy
Cancer Chemother Pharmacol 1995;35(5):411-6.PMID:7850923DOI:10.1007/s002800050255.
Cyclocreatine, an analog of creatine, is an efficient substrate for creatine kinase, but its phosphorylated form is a poor phosphate donor in comparison with creatine phosphate. Cyclocreatine was not very cytotoxic upon 24 h of exposure of human SW2 small-cell lung cancer cells to concentrations of up to 5 mM. However, combinations of Cyclocreatine (0.5 mM, 24 h) with each of four antitumor alkylating agents, cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), melphalan, 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide, and carmustine, resulted in additive to greater-than-additive cytotoxicity toward exponentially growing SW2 cells. The greatest levels of synergy were seen at higher concentrations of 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide and carmustine as determined by isobologram analysis. In vivo Cyclocreatine (0.5 or 1 g/kg) was more effective if given i.v. rather than i.p. The longest tumor-growth delays, up to 10 days, were produced by extended regimens of Cyclocreatine. Cyclocreatine was an effective addition to therapy with standard anticancer agents including cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), cyclophosphamide, Adriamycin, or 5-fluorouracil. No additional toxicity was observed when 10 days of Cyclocreatine treatment was given with full standard-dose regimens of each drug. The resultant increases in tumor-growth delay were 1.7- to 2.4-fold as compared with those obtained for each of the drugs alone. These results indicate that Cyclocreatine may be an effective single agent and an effective addition to combination chemotherapy regimens.
