THR-123
THR-123 is an orally active ALK3 peptide agonist. THR-123 has a relatively weak binding to ALK2, but does not bind to ALK6. THR-123 suppresses inflammation, apoptosis and the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition program and reverses established fibrosis in five mouse models of acute and chronic renal injury. THR-123 can be used for the study of kidney fibrosis.

THR-123 (0-100 μM, 60 min) inhibits the expression of IL-6, IL-8 and ICAM-1 induced by TNF-α in a concentration-dependent manner in HK-2 cells[1].
THR-123 (250 μM) significantly inhibits TGF-β1, hypoxia, or cisplatin-induced cell apoptosis in HK-2 cells[1].
THR-123 (10 μM) restores the expression of E-cadherin inhibited by TGF-β1, reduces the expressions of CTGF and Snail1, and reverses the transformation of cell morphology into the mesenchymal form[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
THR-123 (5-15 mg/kg, p.o. or i.p., once daily for 5-7 days) inhibits interstitial volume expansion and collagen deposition in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model in mice[1].
THR-123 (5 mg/kg, p.o., once daily from 8 weeks to 16 weeks of age) does not alter the glomerular abnormalities, and significantly inhibits the tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis seen in COL4A3KO mice[1].
THR-123 (5 mg/kg, p.o., once daily for 3 months) inhibits the progression of fibrosis associated with advanced diabetic nephropathy in mice[1].
