Fluoflavine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Fluoflavine (ML-090) is a selective NOX1 inhibitor and reactive oxygen species inhibitor. Fluoflavine reduces reactive oxygen species production, NOX1-mediated downstream signaling events, and oxygen-glucose deprivation-induced retinal ganglion cell death. Fluoflavine inhibits NADPH oxidase activity and pathological retinal neovascularization induced by oxygen-induced retinopathy in the retinas of ischemic mice. Fluoflavine can be used in studies related to retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury and proliferative retinopathy.

Biological Activity

NOX1 |
Fluoflavine (ML-090) (0.09 μM; during OGD and 2 hours of reoxygenation) significantly reduces OGD-induced superoxide production in primary RGCs, with efficacy comparable to a nonselective NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitor[1].
Fluoflavine (0.09 μM; during 4 hours of OGD and 24 hours of reoxygenation) potently protects primary from OGD-induced apoptotic and necrotic death, with efficacy comparable to nonselective NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitors[1].
Fluoflavine (10 μM; 30 min preincubation, 2 h IL-33 treatment) attenuates IL-33-induced barrier disruption in HRMVECs, as demonstrated by reduced FITC-dextran flux[2].
Fluoflavine (10 μM; 30 min preincubation, 30 min IL-33 treatment) reduces IL-33-induced ZO-1 serine/threonine phosphorylation in HRMVECs[2].
Fluoflavine (10 μM; 30 min preincubation, 30 min IL-33 treatment) attenuates IL-33-induced PKCδ phosphorylation in HRMVECs[2].
Fluoflavine (10 μM; 30 min preincubation, 2 h IL-33 treatment) reverses IL-33-induced tight junction disruption in HRMVECs, as shown by restored ZO-1 localization at cell junctions[2].
Fluoflavine (10 μM; 30 min preincubation, 24 h IL-33 treatment) reduces IL-33-induced proliferation of HRMVECs[2].
