dASK1-VHL
dASK1-VHL is an ASK1 PROTAC degrader that recruits VHL. dASK1-VHL induces ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of ASK1 by forming a ternary complex, and inhibits the downstream p38 MAPK signaling pathway. dASK1-VHL can be used in studies of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.

Biological Activity
dASK1-VHL (compound 60) (1 nM-10 μM; 8 h) is a potent VHL-dependent PROTAC that induces dose-dependent degradation of ASK1 in HepG2 cells[1].
dASK1-VHL (1 nM-10 μM) shows no cytotoxicity in the tested cell lines over the concentration range of 1 nM to 10000 nM[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Cell Line:HepG2 cells
-
Concentration:1, 10, 100, 500, 1000, 10000 nM
-
Incubation Time:8 h
-
Result:Dose-dependently degraded ASK1, achieving maximum degradation (~60% reduction) at 50 nM.
Showed reduced efficacy at concentrations ≥ 100 nM, consistent with the Hook effect.
Had its ASK1 degradation completely abrogated by pretreatment with VH032, confirming VHL-dependent action.
Exhibited no detectable cytotoxicity across a wide concentration range (1 nM to 10 μM).
