Description

Lexacalcitol (KH1060), a vitamin D analog, is a potent regulator of cell growth and immune responses. Lexacalcitol can be used for the research of graft rejection, psoriasis, cancer and auto-immune diseases[1][2].

In Vitro

Lexacalcitol inhibits cell proliferation by 50% at 10-12 M (14,000 times more active than la,25(OH)2D3) in human histiocytic lymphoma cell line U 937[1].
Lexacalcitol inhibits interleukin-1-induced mouse thymocyte proliferation by 50% at 3×10-16 M , allogeneic stimulation of mouse spleen lymphocytes at 5×10-15 M[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Lexacalcitol (0.5 mg/kg/2 days; i.p.) in combination with cyclosporin A (CyA) can prevent autoimmune destruction of syngeneic islet grafts in spontaneously diabetic NOD recipients[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Male and female spontaneously diabetic NOD mice[2]
Dosage: 0.5 mg/kg/2 days
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection
Result: Single treatment with KH1060 or CyA did not result in statistically significant suppression of early graft failure, while the combination of KH1060 and CyA can prevent early graft failure and delay graft rejection of xenogeneic islets in spontaneously diabetic NOD mice.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
