Descripciòn

Caficrestat (AT-001) is an orally active aldose reductase inhibitor. Caficrestat can be used in the study of diabetic cardiomyopathy[1][2].

In Vitro

Caficrestat (0.2 nM, 48 h) inhibits the activity of aldose reductase (AR) in normal human keratinocytes (NHK) (75%)[1].
Caficrestat (0.2 nM, 48 h) inhibits high glucose (HG), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and mitomycin-c (MMC)-induced NHK senescence[1].

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

RT-PCR[1]

Cell Line: NHK cells
Concentration: 0.2 nM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Down-regulated SA-β-galactosidase activity, γ-H2AX foci, CDKN1A, TP53, SASP, and SERPINE1 gene expression.
In Vivo

Caficrestat (40 mg/kg, p.o., 3 weeks) inhibits AR, myocardial fatty acid oxidation, cardiac fibrosis, and hypertrophy in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) mice[2].

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

Animal Model: Experimental type 2 DbCM model (8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice, high-fat diet [60% kcal from lard] for 10 weeks with a single intraperitoneal injection of Streptozotocin (HY-13753) (75 mg/kg) at 4 weeks)[2]
Dosage: 40 mg/kg
Administration: Oral gavage (p.o.), daily in light cycle for 3 weeks
Result: Increased tissue Doppler e'/a' ratio and decreased E/e' ratio.
Reduced LV mass.
Reduced palmitate oxidation rate.
Reduced cross-sectional collagen deposition.
Reduced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.93 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.93 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 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

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.
