Product Data
Biological target:
Oxipurinol (Oxipurinol), the major active metabolite of Allopurinol, is an inhibitor of xanthine oxidase.
In vitro activity:
As shown in Fig. 1A excess glucose (10 mM) significantly increased trophoblast secretion of IL-1β to 135.2 ± 10.6 pg/mL) when compared to glucose at 5 mM (34.0 ± 4.4 pg/mL). This was significantly inhibited by allopurinol at 200 µM (allo 200) to 109.7 ± 9.7 pg/mL and by allopurinol at 400 µM (allo 400) to 87.3 ± 10.2 pg/mL. To determine whether the inhibition of excess glucose-induced trophoblast IL-1β was a result of allopurinol inhibiting inflammasome function, caspase-1 activity was measured. As shown in Fig. 1B, excess glucose significantly increased trophoblast caspase-1 activity to 78.0 ± 3.7 RLU when compared to glucose at 5 mM (54.9 ± 3.7 RLU), and this was significantly inhibited by allopurinol at 400 µM to 53.9 ± 3.1 RLU. Allopurinol at 200 µM had no effect on trophoblast caspase-1 activity under excess glucose conditions. However, both doses of allopurinol significantly reduced trophoblast caspase-1 activity under 5 mM glucose conditions (Fig. 1B).

In vivo activity:
To investigate the therapeutic potential and underlying mechanism of oxypurinol in ischemic AKI, C57BL/6 male mice were intraperitoneally injected with oxypurinol and subjected to renal I/R or sham surgery. This study found that oxypurinol-treated mice had lower plasma creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels and tubular damage (hematoxylin-and-eosin staining) compared to vehicle-treated mice after renal I/R injury. Furthermore, oxypurinol treatment reduced kidney inflammation (i.e., neutrophil infiltration and MIP-2 mRNA induction), oxidative stress (i.e., 4-HNE, heme oxygenase-1 [HO-1], 8-OHdG expression, and Catalase mRNA induction), and apoptosis (i.e., TUNEL or cleaved caspase-3-positive renal tubular cells), compared to vehicle-treated mice.
