Neopterin
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Neopterin is an immune system activator metabolized by GTP and can be produced by activated macrophages. Neopterin has the potential to resist vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis. Neopterin inhibits the phosphorylation of NF-κB and promotes the expression of PPAR-γ, thereby suppressing the inflammatory response of vascular endothelial cells, reducing the formation of macrophage foam cells, and regulating the migration and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells. Neopterin can be used in research fields such as cardiovascular diseases (such as atherosclerosis), inflammation-related diseases and tumor immunomonitoring.

Human Endogenous Metabolite |
Neopterin (200 nM; 4-48 h) inhibits cell proliferation, reduces the mRNA and protein expression of inflammatory factors such as MCP-1, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1 induced by TNF-α, and reduces monocyte adhesion in human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)[1].
Neopterin (200 nM; 7 d+19 h) inhibits oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL)-induced foam cell formation in human monocyte-derived macrophages (HMDMs), downregulates CD36 expression, upregulates ABCA1, ABCG1, and LXR-α protein levels, and promotes cholesterol efflux[1].
Neopterin (200 nM; 24-48 h) inhibits angiotensin II-induced cell migration and proliferation, downregulates the c-Src/Raf-1/ERK1/2 signaling pathway, and upregulates the expression of fibronectin, MMP-2, and TIMP-2 proteins in human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs)[1].

Cell Line:Human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs), human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs)
-
Concentration:5-200 nM
-
Incubation Time:48 h
-
Result:Significantly suppressed proliferation in HAECs and HUVECs in a concentration-dependent manner, with maximal inhibition at 200 nM.
Reduced cell viability, with the most pronounced effect at 200 nM in HASMCs.
Neopterin (0.4-4.0 mg/kg; iv; single dose, tested for 21 days) causes a decrease in the number of bone marrow erythroid progenitors (BFU-E, CFU-E) and an increase in the number of myeloid progenitors (CFU-GM) in young mice in the aging-associated stromal cell damage model of male senescence-accelerated mice, while the number of erythroid progenitors decreases in aged mice, but serum erythropoietin (Epo) concentrations did not decrease.[2].

Animal Model:Male C57BL/6 Apoe- mice (27-29 g, 17-21 weeks old) with diet-induced atherosclerosis[1]
-
Dosage:1.2 μmol/kg
-
Administration:Intraperitoneal injection daily for 4 weeks
-
Result:Aortic atherosclerotic lesion area and cross-sectional plaque size at the aortic root were reduced by 35% and 17%, respectively, compared to vehicle-treated controls.
Immunohistochemistry showed decreased infiltration of monocyte/macrophages (MOMA-2+ cells) and CD8+ T cells in atheromatous plaques.
Vascular smooth muscle cell (α-SMA+) content and expression of pro-inflammatory markers MCP-1 and PTX-3 in plaques were significantly lower in neopterin-treated mice.
Plasma PTX-3 levels, a marker of plaque instability, were reduced by 30% compared to controls.
