MedKoo Cat#: 326986 | Name: Sorbinil
Featured

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Sorbinil, also known as CP-45634, is an aldose reductase inhibitor potentially for the treatment of diabetes. Aldose reductase is an enzyme present in lens and brain that gets rid of excess glucose by converting it to sorbitol. Sorbitol accumulation can lead to the development of cataracts in the lens and neuropathy in peripheral nerves. Sorbinil has been shown to inhibit aldose reductase in human brain and placenta and calf and rat lens. Sorbinil reduced sorbitol accummulation in rat lens and sciatic nerve of diabetic rats orally administered 0.25mg/kg sorbinil.

Biological target:
Sorbinil prevents the accumulation of sorbitol in cells or animals.
In vitro activity:
AR inhibitors (ARIs), such as sorbinil and zopolrestat, could be promising agents for treating inflammation-related neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer' disease. Sorbinil and zopolrestat significantly inhibit TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 production from microglia in response to Aβ stimulation. Sor and Zol decreased the production of intracellular ROS which resulted in an effective inhibition on the phosphorylation of several protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms including PKCα/β, δ, ζ/λ and mu.

In vivo activity:
Sorbinil is an effective ARI, which could play therapeutic role in treating diabetes and diabetic complications. Animal model studies reported the efficacy of sorbinil in controlling the progression of diabetes. Moreover, sorbinil has been found to be comparatively safer than other ARIs for human use.
