InformationFebuxostat Febuxostat (TMX 67, TEI-6720) is a selective xanthine oxidase inhibitor with K i of 0.6 nM.In vitroFebuxostat displays potent mixed-type inhibition of the activity of purified bovine milk xanthine oxidase, with Ki and Ki/' values of 0.6 nM and 3.1 nM respectively, indicating inhibition of both the oxidized and reduced forms of xanthine oxidase. [2]In vivoFebuxostat (5–6 mg/kg/day) combined with fructose significantly lowers blood pressure, UA, triglycerides, and insulin in rats compared with fructose alone. Febuxostat (5–6 mg/kg/day) combined with fructose also reduces glomerular pressure, renal vasoconstriction, and afferent arteriolar area in rats compared with fructose alone. Febuxostat prevents hyperuricemia in 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx)+oxonic acid (OA)+Febuxostat(Fx) rats and ameliorates proteinuria, preserves renal function and prevents glomerular hypertension in both 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx)+vehicle (V)+Febuxostat(Fx) and 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx)+oxonic acid (OA)+Febuxostat(Fx) groups. Febuxostat (5 mg/kg/d by gavage for 8 days) treatment after transverse aortic constriction (TAC) attenuates the TAC-induced left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and dysfunction. Febuxostat blunts the TAC-induced increases in nitrotyrosine (indicating reduced myocardial oxidative stress), p-Erk(Thr202/Tyr204), and p-mTOR(Ser2488), with no effect on total Erk or total mTOR. Febuxostat significantly suppresses oxonic acid activity, and thereby reduces oxidative stress in Sprague-Dawley rats with right nephrectomy and left renal I/R injury, as assessed by nitrotyrosine, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and urine 8-isoprostane. Febuxostat also reduces the induction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in Sprague-Dawley rats with right nephrectomy and left renal I/R injury, as assessed by GRP-78, ATF4, and CHOP.Cell Datacell lines:CRC lines SW480, LoVo, DLD1 and HCT15.Concentrations:Incubation Time:Powder Purity:≥99%.
