Description:

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

Rostafuroxin, also known as PST-2238, is an ouabain antagonist. Rostafuroxin protects from podocyte injury and proteinuria induced by adducin genetic variants and ouabain. Rostafuroxin ameliorates endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress in resistance arteries from deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt hypertensive rats: the role of Na+K+-ATPase/ cSRC pathway. Rostafuroxin corrects renal and vascular Na+-K+- ATPase alterations in ouabain and adducin-dependent hypertension.

More Info
Biological target:
Rostafuroxin (PST 2238), a digitoxigenin derivative, is a potent Na+,K+-ATPase (ATP1A1) antagonist.
In vitro activity:
TBD
In vivo activity:
In order to investigate whether high EO (endogenous ouabain) levels may directly contribute to worsen renal damage caused by ischemia-reperfusion maneuver, rats were subcutaneously infused with exogenous ouabain (30 µg/kg/day) (OHR (ouabain) rats) for eight weeks, while control rats received saline (control rats). After four weeks, OHR rats were divided into two groups receiving vehicle (group 2) or an oral treatment of 100 µg/kg/day rostafuroxin (group 4) for four weeks. Analogously, the control rats were allocated to two groups receiving vehicle (group 3) or 100 µg/kg/day rostafuroxin (group 5) for four weeks. At the end, all rats were subjected to renal ischemia and sacrificed after five days of reperfusion. In OHR rats, SBP significantly increased versus control rats (153.4 ± 6.8 mmHg, n = 7, vs. 111.7 ± 2.8 mmHg, n = 7, p < 0.01). Rostafuroxin reduced SBP in OHR (−20 mmHg, n = 7, p < 0.01), but not in controls (+5 mmHg, n = 7), as previously shown.
