MRS2768 tetrasodium salt
Based on 1 Customer Validation
MRS2768 tetrasodium salt is a potent, selective, and metabolically stable P2Y2 receptor agonist with an EC50 of 1.89 μM for the human P2Y2 receptor. MRS2768 tetrasodium salt activates Gq/PLC/PKC signaling, leading to downstream phosphorylation of Akt, eNOS, and ERK, with effects varying by cell type. MRS2768 tetrasodium salt inhibits ENaC via Gq/PKC/Src/Akt to promote natriuresis and lower blood pressure in the kidney. MRS2768 tetrasodium salt activates eNOS to increase NO secretion in endothelial cells. MRS2768 tetrasodium salt drives proliferation via PI3K/Akt in fibroblasts and cancer cells. MRS2768 tetrasodium salt exerts anti-apoptotic effects through PKC/Src/Akt in cardiomyocytes. MRS2768 tetrasodium salt can be applied to investigate P2Y2-dependent pathological processes, including acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease and renal fibrosis, DOCA-salt induced hypertension, myocardial infarction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, pancreatic cancer, cardiac fibrosis, dry eye disease, as well as shear stress-mediated vascular remodeling and atherosclerosis.
