Rostafuroxin
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Rostafuroxin (PST 2238), a digitoxigenin derivative, is an orally active and potent Na+,K+-ATPase (ATP1A1) antognist. Rostafuroxin binds specifically to the ATP1A1 extracellular domain and blocks respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-triggered EGFR Tyr845 phosphorylation. Rostafuroxin has antihypertensive and anti-RSV activity.

Biological Activity
Rostafuroxin (PST 2238) competitively inhibits Ouabain (HY-B0542) binding and signaling. Rostafuroxin antagonizes the molecularand functional effects of Ouabain by reversing the ouabain-induced, Src-dependent Na+,K+-ATPase phosphorylation and activation[3][4].
Rostafuroxin (0.125-128 μM; for 24 h post treatment) has less than 20% reduction in cell viability in A549 cells and HSAEC. Rostafuroxin inhibits the expression of RSV-GFP in HSAEC (IC50=1.8 μM) and A549 cells (IC50=14.8 μM)[3].
Rostafuroxin displaced [3H]Ouabain from the dog kidney Na+,K+-ATPase receptor (IC50=1.5 nM), is devoid of cardiac inotropic activity in isolated guinea pig atria, and shows no affinity up to 10-4 M with general (R1, R2, a1, a2, A1, A2, M1, M2, H1, H2, 5-HT1, 5-HT2, Ca2+ channels, TXA2/PGH2, PAF, GABAA, GABAB, DA-NE-5-HT uptake, glutammate,glycine, benzodiazepine) and hormonal (estrogenic, progestinic, androgenic, mineralcorticoid) receptors[1].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.68 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
