ITX5061 free base
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
ITX5061 free base is an orally active type II non-competitive p38 MAPK inhibitor. ITX5061 free base increases HDL-C levels by inhibiting SR-BI activity. ITX5061 free base also moderately elevates ApoA-I levels. ITX5061 free base reduces early atherosclerotic lesions in the aortic arch of mice fed an atherogenic diet. ITX5061 free base can be used in the research of atherosclerosis.

In Vitro
ITX5061 (1 μM) free base significantly inhibits SR-BI-mediated HDL uptake in HEK 293 cells overexpressing SR-BI[1].

In Vivo
ITX5061 (30 mg/kg; daily; 7 days) free base increases HDL-C levels in WT mice in an SR-BI-dependent manner, with no effect on HDL-C in SR-BI−/− mice[1].
ITX5061 (0.037% incorporated into diet; daily; 18 weeks) free base increases HDL-C by 30% and reduces early atherosclerotic lesions in the aortic arch by 40% in Ldlr+/− mice fed a Paigen diet for 18 weeks, regardless of CETP expression[1].

Animal Model:C57Bl/6 human apoA-I transgenic (HuAITg)[1]
-
Dosage:30 mg/kg

Administration:daily; 7 days
-
Result:Increased HDL-C levels by 50% compared to baseline.
Did not change non-HDL-C levels.
Increased apoA-I levels by 15% compared to vehicle controls.
Induced a shift towards larger-sized HDL.
Decreased HDL-CE fractional catabolic rate to 1.86 pools/d (vs 2.47 pools/d in controls, P<0.05).
Kept HDL-CE production rates identical to controls at 129 μg/g/d.
Reduced accumulation of [3H] CE in the liver significantly.

Research Protocol for Cardiovascular Diseases
Cardiovascular disease can be modeled as maladaptive cardiac remodeling, where ischemic injury or pressure overload activates inflammatory signaling, fibroblast activation, extracellular-matrix deposition, cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, vascular remodeling, and progressive ventricular dysfunction. The TGF-β/SMAD axis is a central profibrotic pathway after myocardial injury and pressure overload, while innate immune and cytokine pathways regulate leukocyte recruitment, scar formation, and adverse remodeling. Key unresolved questions include which inflammatory signals are reparative versus harmful, when fibrosis is protective versus maladaptive, and whether pathway inhibition improves function without weakening necessary infarct healing or compensatory remodeling.
