Description

OK2, a specific inhibitor of the CCN2/EGFR interaction, efficiently blocks CCN2/EGFR interaction through binding to the CT domain of CCN2. OK2 can be used for kidney fibrosis and chronic kidney disease research[1].

IC50 & Target

p-STAT3

 

In Vitro

OK2 (0-100 μM; 24 hours) inhibits EGFR activation, STAT3 phosphorylation, and ECM protein synthesis in HK-2 cells[1].

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

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: HK-2 cells
Concentration: 0, 4, 20, 100 μM
Incubation Time: 24 hours
Result: Blocked thevastmajority ofEGFR activation in therenalfibrosis cell model, thereby preventing EGFRmediated STAT3 phosphorylation andECMprotein synthesis.
Inhibited EGFR-mediated ECM protein synthesis in a dose dependent manner and exhibited a significant blocking effect beginning at 20 μM.
In Vivo

OK2 (50 μg/kg, i.p., for 14 days) blocks CCN2-induced EGFR/STAT3 activation and impede kidney fibrosis in the unilateral ureteric obstruction (UUO) mice model[1].
OK2 (1 mg/kg, s.c.) shows a T1/2 of 0.9 h and Cmax of 1057.8 ng/mL in male Sprague Dawley rats[1].

s.c. 1 1057.8 1.0 0.9 3032.0
Animal Model: Unilateral ureteric obstruction (UUO)-induced renal fibrosis [1]
Dosage: 50 μg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.) for 14 days
Result: Alleviated renal tubular injury and inflammatory infiltration, as well as suppressed collagen formation in the left kidney.
Inhibited the phosphorylation of EGFR and STAT3 and reduced the vast majority of fibronectin and type I collagen synthesis.
Animal Model: Male Sprague Dawley rats(Pharmacokinetic assay)[1]
Dosage: 1 mg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous injection (s.c.)
Result: Showed a T1/2 of 0.9 h and Cmax of 1057.8 ng/mL in male Sprague Dawley rats[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.
