Description:

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

AC1903 is a specific blocker of TRPC5 channel activity. It has been shown to suppress severe proteinuria and prevent podocyte loss. AC1903 consistently suppressed G418 uptake and G418-induced PTC readthrough in the DMS-114 cancer cell line and junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB) patient-derived keratinocytes and inhibited TRPV4 channels, but had weak or no effects on TRPV1 and no effect on the nonselective cation channel PIEZO1

Product Data
Biological target:
AC1903 is a specific and selective inhibitor of TRPC5 and has podocyte-protective properties.
In vitro activity:
TBD
In vivo activity:
Twice-daily intraperitoneal injections of AC1903 (50 mg/kg) for 7 days suppressed severe proteinuria in AT1R Tg rats (Advanced) (Fig. 3A), without evidence of toxicity (fig. S7, A to C). Inside-out electrophysiology measurements in isolated glomeruli from AT1R Tg rats confirmed that AC1903 blocks TRPC5 channel activity during proteinuric disease progression (Fig. 3, B and C). Morphometric analysis demonstrated that treatment with AC1903 led to a significant reduction in pseudocyst formation and in podocyte loss in AT1R Tg rats with advanced disease (Fig. 3, D to F). Thus, AC1903 inhibits the progression of proteinuric kidney disease by preserving podocytes.
