Cat. No.: HY-16268A Purity: 99.84%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Kartogenin (KGN) sodium is an inducer of chondrogenic tissue formation (EC50: 100 nM). Kartogenin sodium induces chondrogenesis by binding to fibrin A, disrupting its interaction with the transcription factor core binding factor beta subunit (CBFβ), and by modulating the CBFβ-RUNX1 transcriptional program. Kartogenin sodium also promotes tendon-bone junction (TBJ) wound healing by stimulating collagen synthesis. Kartogenin sodium is widely used in cell-free therapy in the field of regeneration for cartilage regeneration and protection, tendon-bone healing, wound healing and limb development. Kartogenin sodium promotes cartilage repair, coordinates limb development, and is also used in osteoarthritis (OA) research.

    Description

    Kartogenin (KGN) sodium is an inducer of chondrogenic tissue formation (EC50: 100 nM). Kartogenin sodium induces chondrogenesis by binding to fibrin A, disrupting its interaction with the transcription factor core binding factor beta subunit (CBFβ), and by modulating the CBFβ-RUNX1 transcriptional program. Kartogenin sodium also promotes tendon-bone junction (TBJ) wound healing by stimulating collagen synthesis. Kartogenin sodium is widely used in cell-free therapy in the field of regeneration for cartilage regeneration and protection, tendon-bone healing, wound healing and limb development. Kartogenin sodium promotes cartilage repair, coordinates limb development, and is also used in osteoarthritis (OA) research[1][2][3][4].

    In Vitro

    Kartogenin sodium (100 nM; 72 h) induces chondrocyte nodule formation in primary hMSCs[1].
    Kartogenin sodium (10 nM-10 μM; 72 h) increases chondrocyte-specific gene expression in hMSCs[1].
    Kartogenin sodium (0.12-10 μM; 48 h) inhibits nitric oxide (NO) and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) release induced by cytokines in primary bovine articular chondrocytes[1].
    Kartogenin sodium (50-5000 nM; 2 weeks) induces the chondrogenetic differentiation of the BMSCs in a concentration-dependent manner[2].

    In Vivo

    Kartogenin sodium (10 μM in 4 μL of saline; i.a. on days 7 and 21) promotes cartilag erepair in collagenase VII-induced OA models in mice[1].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
