| 产品介绍 |
IOX4 is a potent and selective PHD2 inhibitor with IC50 ~1.6 nM. It inhibits PHD2 via binding to the 2OG binding site, displays >1, 000-fold selectivity for PHD2 over other 2OG-dependent dioxygenases, including JMJD isoforms, FBXL11, JARID1C, BBOX1, FIH, and FTO. IOX4 is active in vivo, inhibiting prolyl hydroxylation and increasing HIF-1α levels in cells (IC50 ~5.6-11.7 μM) and inducing HIF-1α and HIF-2α expression in mice. The induction of HIF expression in mice occurs in the brain as well as in the liver, kidney, and heart, indicating that IOX4 penetrates the blood-brain barrier. IOX4 could be a useful tool compound for studies aimed at validating the upregulation of HIF for treatment of cerebral diseases including stroke.
