Description:

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

Digoxin is a cardiotonic glycoside obtained mainly from Digitalis lanata; it consists of three sugars and the aglycone DIGOXIGENIN. Digoxin has positive inotropic and negative chronotropic activity. It is used to control ventricular rate in ATRIAL FIBRILLATION and in the management of congestive heart failure with atrial fibrillation. Its use in congestive heart failure and sinus rhythm is less certain. The margin between toxic and therapeutic doses is small.

Product Data
Biological target:
Digoxin (NSC 95100) is a classical Na,K-ATPase inhibitor, with selectivity for the α2β3 isoform over the common α1β1 isoform, used in the treatment of atrial fibrillation and heart failure.
In vitro activity:
As shown in Figure 1A and B, the viability of HCT8 and SW620 cells decreased in a dose-dependent manner after exposure to digoxin at a concentration of 0.001–0.5 μM for 24 h, with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of 0.15 and 0.23 µM for the HCT8 and SW620 cells, respectively. Furthermore, digoxin treatment reduced the number and size of the cell colonies, confirming that digoxin inhibited the proliferation of HCT8 and SW620 cells in a dose-dependent manner, as shown in Figure 1C and F.

In vivo activity:
Collectively, these data indicate that digoxin effectively protects chronic hepatic damage, steatosis, and inflammation in HFD-induced obese mice. Thus, this study concludes that long-term treatment with oral digoxin reduces chronic liver damage, steatosis, and inflammation in experimental model of NASH.
