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.
