KR-67607
KR-67607 is a selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitor, with an IC50 value of 4.8 nM against h11β-HSD1 and 7.1 nM against mouse 11β-HSD1. KR-67607 inhibits stress-induced Glucocorticoid receptor nuclear translocation, reduces cortisol levels, suppresses the expression of ROS and proinflammatory cytokines, and enhances Nrf-2-mediated antioxidant gene transcription. KR-67607 maintains trabecular meshwork structure and reverses elevated intraocular pressure. KR-67607 improves ocular antioxidant activity and mucus secretion, reverses ocular surface damage, and prevents ischemia-reperfusion induced ocular injury. KR-67607 can be used in research related to glaucoma and dry eye disease.

Biological Activity
IC50: 4.8 nM against h11β-HSD1 and 7.1 nM against mouse 11β-HSD1[1]
KR-67607 (3 h) potently and selectively inhibits the reductase activity of 11β-HSD1, with an IC50 value of 4.8 nM against h11β-HSD1 and 7.1 nM against mouse 11β-HSD1[1].
KR-67607 (0.001-2 μM; 1 h ischemia, 24 h reperfusion) potently inhibits 11β-HSD1 reductase activity in IAA-treated HTMC, with an inhibition rate >50% at 1 nM and >90% at concentrations ≥0.02 μM[1].
KR-67607 (0.001-2 μM; 1 h ischemia, 24 h reperfusion) dose-dependently increases the survival rate of IAA-treated HTMCs after ischemia-reperfusion injury[1].
KR-67607 (0.001-2 μM; 1 h ischemia, 24 h reperfusion) reduces IAA-treated HTMCs' LDH leakage in a dose-dependent manner, indicating its protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion induced cell membrane damage[1].
KR-67607 (1 h of ischemia followed by 7 h of reperfusion) attenuates apoptosis and inflammatory signaling in IAA-treated HTMCs after ischemia-reperfusion injury by regulating the protein expression of 11β-HSD1, BAX, Bcl-2, NF-κB and TNFα[1].
KR-67607 (at 24 h of reperfusion) protects HTMCs from ischemia-reperfusion-induced cell death by inhibiting 11β-HSD1, which is confirmed by the absence of a protective effect in 11β-HSD1-knockdown cells[1].
KR-67607 (1 h of ischemia followed by 24 h of reperfusion) protects HTMCs against IAA-induced F-actin disruption and restores normal F-actin structure and levels after ischemia-reperfusion injury[1].
KR-67607 (following 30 min of DCFH-DA incubation, the reperfusion duration can reach up to 180 min) significantly reduces intracellular ROS production in IAA-treated HTMC cells during ischemia-reperfusion injury[1].
KR-67607 (2-5 μM; 2 h reperfusion) dose-dependently increases the expression of HO-1 protein in IAA-treated HTMCs after ischemia-reperfusion injury, with no effect on the activation of p38 MAPK[1].
KR-67607 (2-5 μM) upregulates the expression of Nrf-2-ARE-related antioxidant genes (HO-1, NQO-1, GCLC) in IAA-treated HTMC after ischemia-reperfusion injury[1].
KR-67607 (2-5 μM; 2 h reperfusion) dose-dependently inhibits the nuclear translocation of GR induced by IAA in HTMC after ischemia-reperfusion injury[1].
KR-67607 potently and selectively inhibits the reductase activities of h11β-HSD1 and mouse 11β-HSD1 in CHO-K1 cells, with corresponding IC50 values of 4 nM and 7 nM, respectively, while exerting no significant inhibitory effect on related steroid dehydrogenases[3].
