Description:

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

Alagebrium Chloride, also known as ALT711, was a drug candidate developed by Alteon, Inc. It was the first drug candidate to be clinically tested for the purpose of breaking the crosslinks caused by advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs), thereby reversing one of the main mechanisms of aging. Through this effect Alagebrium is designed to reverse the stiffening of blood vessel walls that contributes to hypertension and cardiovascular disease, as well as many other forms of degradation associated with protein crosslinking. Alagebrium has proven effective in reducing systolic blood pressure and providing therapeutic benefit for patients with diastolic

Product Data
Biological target:
Alagebrium chloride (ALT711) is an advanced glycation end product (AGE) inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
Incubation of H9C2 with either MG (30 μM) (Fig. 2A) or high glucose (25 mM) (Fig. 2B) for 24 h significantly increased the level of cellular MG to a similar extent, which was prevented by co-incubation with ALA (Alagebrium) (100 μM) (Fig. 2A and B). Incubation of cultured H9C2 with either high glucose (25 mM) (Fig. 3A) or MG (30 μM) (Fig. 3B) for 24 h significantly increased reactive oxygen species, measured as oxidized DCF, which was attenuated by ALA (100 μM) co-incubated with high glucose or MG (Fig. 3). ALA alone did not affect basal DCF levels. Reference: Life Sci. 2016 Feb 1;146:8-14. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26772824/
In vivo activity:
Blood glucose concentration was significantly elevated in ZO and ZD compared with ZL rats. Although there was a trend toward decreased blood glucose concentration for all rats with ALT-711, this decrease did not reach significance, and values remained elevated compared with ZL rats (Table 2). Mean BF was decreased in ZD compared with ZL rats but increased to ZL levels after ALT-711 treatment (Fig. 1). ALT-711 also increased BF in ZO rats. ALT-711 treatment reduced distal vascular resistance in ZD rats (Fig. 1).
