2-Hydroxyanthraquinone
Based on 1 Customer Validation
2-Hydroxyanthraquinone is a product generated by the photochemical oxidation of Anthracene (ANT) (HY-Y0299). 2-Hydroxyanthraquinone induces ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes by depleting GSH and inhibiting GPX4, leading to cardiac developmental malformations. 2-Hydroxyanthraquinone causes damage to the cerebrovascular system and blood-brain barrier in zebrafish by downregulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, as well as inducing inflammation and neuronal apoptosis. 2-Hydroxyanthraquinone can be used in studies related to cerebrovascular diseases and cardiotoxicity.

2-Hydroxyanthraquinone binds stably to zebrafish GPX4 protein with a binding energy of −8.3 kcal/mol, mediated by amino acid residues Pro-140, Lys-143, and Arg-168[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
2-Hydroxyanthraquinone (0.4-1.2 mg/L; waterborne exposure; 6-96 h) induces concentration-dependent cardiac developmental toxicity in zebrafish embryos via ferroptosis, including reduced cardiomyocyte proliferation, oxidative stress, lipid metabolism disorder, iron accumulation, and cardiac structural/functional defects[2].
2-Hydroxyanthraquinone (300-400 µg/L; waterborne exposure; 28 days) induces cardiac injury in adult zebrafish, including ventricular atrophy, cardiomyocyte degeneration, fibrosis, and vacuolization[2].
