Cat. No.: HY-162596 Purity: 99.96%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

NRL-1049 (BA-1049 (free base)) is an orally available and selective ROCK2 inhibitor with IC50 values of 0.59 µM for ROCK2 and 26 µM for ROCK1, respectively. NRL-1049 modulates ROCK signaling, preserves blood-brain barrier integrity, reduces edema, seizures and hemorrhage, and alleviates cerebral cavernous malformation lesion burden. NRL-1049 can be used for the study of acute brain injury, ischemic stroke, and cerebral cavernous malformations.

Description

NRL-1049 (BA-1049 (free base)) is an orally available and selective ROCK2 inhibitor with IC50 values of 0.59 µM for ROCK2 and 26 µM for ROCK1, respectively. NRL-1049 modulates ROCK signaling, preserves blood-brain barrier integrity, reduces edema, seizures and hemorrhage, and alleviates cerebral cavernous malformation lesion burden. NRL-1049 can be used for the study of acute brain injury, ischemic stroke, and cerebral cavernous malformations[1][2].

IC50 & Target[1]

ROCK1

26 μM (IC50)

ROCK2

0.59 μM (IC50)

In Vitro

NRL-1049 potently and selectively inhibits purified recombinant ROCK2, with an IC50 of 0.59 μM, and is 43-fold more selective for ROCK2 than ROCK1[1].
NRL-1049 (10 μM) inhibits ROCK1, ROCK2, and eight additional human protein kinases by greater than 95%[1].
NRL-1049 (0.01-1000 μM; 1 hour prior to LPA stimulation) concentration-dependently inhibits LPA-induced ROCK activity (measured via MLC2 phosphorylation) in hBMVECs, with an EC50 of 26.3 μM after 1 hour of pre-incubation[1].
NRL-1049 (50 μM; 1 hour incubation) inhibits LPA-induced ROCK activity in HUVECs by 15% after 1 hour of incubation, with the effect fully reversed within 1 hour of compound washout[1].
NRL-1049 (1 μM) leads to mouse, cynomolgus monkey, and human hepatocytes producing the active metabolite NRL-2017, rat hepatocytes producing NRL-2017 and an inactive N-oxide metabolite, and dog hepatocytes producing no detectable metabolites[1].

Parmacokinetics
Species Dose Route T1/2
Mice[1] 10 mg/kg i.p. 0.33 h
Rat[1] 10 mg/kg i.p. 0.89 h
In Vivo

NRL-1049 (10-20 mg/kg; i.p., s.c., oral; single dose, continuous, via drinking water; 24 hours) prevents seizure development, reduces ipsilesional brain water content, and diminishes Evans Blue extravasation to near-sham levels, preserving blood-brain barrier integrity after cortical cryoinjury in C57BL/6 mice[1].
NRL-1049 (10 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose 15 minutes post-reperfusion) significantly reduces Evans Blue extravasation, lowers the incidence of hemorrhagic transformation to 25%, and improves hemorrhage grade, preserving blood-brain barrier integrity after transient MCAO in spontaneously hypertensive rats[1].
NRL-1049 (1 mg/kg; p.o.; daily; 3-4 months) reduces CCM lesion burden and hemorrhage in CCM knockout mice, with sustained retention in vascular tissues[2].

Animal Model: C57BL/6 (male and female, 18-22 gram, cortical cryoinjury-induced acute brain injury)[1]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg plus 10 mg/h (brain water content, seizure monitoring); 20 mg/kg plus 100 mg/kg/day (Evans Blue extravasation)
Administration: i.p. (single dose immediately post-injury); s.c. (continuous via osmotic pump, 24 hours); oral (via drinking water, starting immediately post-injury)
Result: Prevented seizure development to 0% within 24 hours post-injury.
Showed significantly lower ipsilesional brain water content at 24 hours post-injury, with a strong trend toward lower water content as early as 1 hour post-injury.
Animal Model: Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) (male, 170-300 gram, transient middle cerebral artery occlusion-induced ischemic stroke)[1]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg
Administration: i.p. (single dose 15 minutes post-reperfusion)
Result: Significantly reduced Evans Blue extravasation in the ischemic hemisphere compared to vehicle controls.
Reduced incidence of hemorrhagic transformation to 25% compared to 78% of vehicle-treated rats.
Achieved a significantly lower mean hemorrhage grade (0.43).

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.
