    FXBP1s expression. Western immunoblot of hSAECs transduced with empty (pCT) or FXBP1s-expressing lentiviral vector at an MOI of 2.0 for 48 h, or mock-treated or treated with tunicamycin (TM, 0.5 μg/ml for 8 h) or thapsigargin (Tg, 50 nM for 6 h) in the absence or presence of KIRA8 (10 μM). Nuclear extracts were prepared and stained with anti-FLAG M2 or anti-XBP1s antibodies. TBP was used as loading control.

    We observed that Tg induced a 3.5 ± 0.5-fold increase in endogenous XBP1s binding to the GFPT1 promoter. This induction was completely inhibited by the treatment with KIRA8 (10 μM).

    In a manner similar to our observations on the RSV induction of cell-associated FN1, we found that FN1 deposition into the ECM was also blocked by KIRA8 (10 μM, pre-treated for two hours).

    Proteomics analysis of N-glycosylation in hSAECs infected with RSV in the presence or absence of KIRA8. hSAECs were infected with RSV at 1.0 MOI for 24 h in the presence or absence of KIRA8 (10 µM). The N-glycosylated peptides were enriched with lectins and then analyzed with label-free LC-MS/MS. Volcano plot of N-glycosylated peptides (RSV vs. Control).

    Description

    Kira8 Hydrochloride (AMG-18 Hydrochloride) is a mono-selective IRE1α inhibitor that allosterically attenuates IRE1α RNase activity with an IC50 of 5.9 nM[1].

    IC50 & Target

    IRE1α[1]
    IC50: 5.9 nM (IRE1α RNase)[1]

    In Vitro

    Kira8 blocks IRE1α oligomerization, and potently inhibits IRE1α RNase activity against XBP1 and Ins2 RNAs. Kira8 more potently reduces IRE1α-driven apoptosis in INS-1 cells than KIRA6 and also reverses XBP1 splicing promoted by GNF-2[1].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    In Vivo

    Male Ins2+/Akita mice are injected i.p. with KIRA8 (50 mg/kg; daily; for 35 days), significant reduction of hyperglycemia become apparent over several weeks[1].
    One week treatment of pre-diabetic NODs mice with Kira8 (50 mg/kg; i.p.; once a day) leads to significant reductions in islet XBP1 splicing and TXNIP mRNAs, and preserves Ins1/Ins2, BiP and MANF mRNAs[1].

    Animal Model: Male Ins2+/Akita mice[1]
    Dosage: 50 mg/kg
    Administration: Injected i.p.; daily; for 35 days
    Result: Significant reduction of hyperglycemia became apparent over several weeks.

    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.
