Kanglexin is an orally active and novel anthraquinone compound. Kanglexin inhibits NLRP3 inflammatory body activation and cell pyroptosis, and has a cardioprotective effect. Kanglexin promotes angiogenesis through FGFR1/ERK signaling pathway and accelerates diabetic wound healing. In addition, Kanglexin has the effect of lipid-lowering and inhibiting the dedifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and can be used in the study of hyperlipidemia, fatty liver and atherosclerosis.

Description

Kanglexin is an orally active and novel anthraquinone compound. Kanglexin inhibits NLRP3 inflammatory body activation and cell pyroptosis, and has a cardioprotective effect. Kanglexin promotes angiogenesis through FGFR1/ERK signaling pathway and accelerates diabetic wound healing. In addition, Kanglexin has the effect of lipid-lowering and inhibiting the dedifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and can be used in the study of hyperlipidemia, fatty liver and atherosclerosis[1][2][3][4].

IC50 & Target[1]

NLRP3

 

In Vitro

Kanglexin (10-20 μM; 24 h) inhibits pyroptosis of cardiomyocytes treated with hypoxia or LPS (HY-D1056)[1].
Kanglexin (5-20 μM; 24 h) reduces lipid levels in oleic acid (HY-N1446) treated HepG2 cells through AMPK/SREGBP-2/PCSK9/LDLR signaling pathway[2].

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

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: LPS (HY-D1056) treated neonatal mouse ventricular cardiomyocytes
Concentration: 10 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Inhibited the levels of NLRP3 and the pyroptosis-related proteins mature IL-1β and IL-18.
In Vivo

Kanglexin (20-40 mg/kg; oral gavage; 7 days) has an ameliorative effect in the myocardial infarction mouse model[1].
Kanglexin (20-80 mg/kg; oral administration; 2 weeks) has an ameliorative effect in the hyperlipidemia rat model[2].

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

Animal Model: Male C57BL/6 mice aged 8 weeks old (20 ± 2 g) with myocardial infarction (MI) model[1]
Dosage: 20 and 40 mg/kg
Administration: Oral gavage (i.g.); 7 days
Result: Reduced myocardial injury in MI mice.
Effectively inhibited pyroptosis processes in the mouse hearts with MI.
Attenuated the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome upon MI in mouse hearts.
Animal Model: High fat diet treated Sprague-Dawley rats[2]
Dosage: 20, 40 and 80 mg/kg
Administration: Oral administration (p.o.); 2 weeks
Result: Had prominent effects on reducing blood lipids, hepatic lipid accumulation, body weight and the ratio of liver weight/body weight.

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.
