Description:

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

Roxadustat, also known as ASP1517 and FG-4592, is an HIF α prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor in a cell-free assay. It stabilizes HIF-2 and induces EPO production and stimulates erythropoiesis. Roxadustat transiently and moderately increased endogenous erythropoietin and reduced hepcidin.

More Info
Biological target:
Roxadustat is an inhibitor of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH; IC50s = 1.4, 1.26, and 1.32 µM for HIF-PH1, HIF-PH2, and HIF-PH3, respectively). It is selective for HIF-PH over other 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases, including lysine-specific demethylase 5A (KDM5A), KDM5B, -5C, -5D, and -6B (IC50s = >100 µM for all). Roxadustat (10-200 µM) stabilizes HIF-1α and HIF-2α in Hep3B hepatocellular carcinoma cells.
In vitro activity:
The in vitro effects of roxadustat on cobalt chloride (CoCl2)-stimulated pulmonary fibrosis were investigated with L929 mouse fibroblasts. The proliferation of L929 cells was inhibited and the production of collagen I, collagen III, prolyl hydroxylase domain protein 2 (PHD2), HIF-1α, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and p-Smad3 were reduced relative to that in the CoCl2 after roxadustat treatment.

In vivo activity:
The effects of roxadustat on an in vivo pulmonary fibrosismice model induced with bleomycin (BLM; intraperitoneal injection, 50 mg/kg twice a week for 4 continuous weeks) were investigated. Roxadustat ameliorated pulmonary fibrosis by reducing the pathology score and collagen deposition as well as decreasing the expression of collagen I, collagen III, PHD2, HIF-1α, α-SMA, CTGF, TGF-β1 and p-Smad3/Smad3.
