NTU281
NTU281 is a potent transglutaminase-2 inhibitor. NTU281 can reduce the increases in serum creatinine and albuminuria in diabetic rats. NTU281 can also reduce glomerular collagen I accumulation, Hic-5 and α-SMA expression, and apoptosis. NTU281 can be used for researching glomerulosclerosis caused by diabetes.

-
Animal Model:Male Wistar Han rats [subjected to right uninephrectomy, then induced hyperglycemia by tail vein injection of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg in citrate buffer pH 4)][1]
-
Dosage:2.5 μl/h of 50 mM
-
Administration:Cannulated to deliver into kidneys
-
Result:Reduced glomerular collagen I overexpression by ~50%; reduced the increases in glomerular Hic-5 expression; reduced diabetic nephropathy-induced α-SMA expression.

Animal Model:Male Wistar Han rats [subjected to right uninephrectomy, then induced hyperglycemia by tail vein injection of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg in citrate buffer pH 4)][2]
-
Dosage:Various concentration
-
Administration:Cannulated to deliver into kidneys
-
Result:Significantly reduced the increases in serum creatinine (-68%) and albuminuria (-80%) in diabetic rats during eight-month experimental period; reduced in glomerulosclerosis (-76.6%) and tubulointerstitial scarring (-68.2%) as a result of lowered accumulation of collagen I, III and IV; and reduced numbers of myofibroblasts present.
