RGLS4326 sodium
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
RGLS4326 (RG4326) sodium is a microRNA-17 (miR-17) oligonucleotide inhibitor with an EC50 of 28.3 nM. RGLS4326 sodium antagonizes AMPAR and inhibits ligand binding. RGLS4326 sodium relieves the inhibition of Pkd1/Pkd2 by miR-17 and upregulates PC1/PC2. RGLS4326 sodium preferentially distributes to the kidney and cysts, attenuates cyst progression and improves survival in mouse models of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in a miR-17 binding motif-dependent manner. RGLS4326 sodium can be used in ADPKD-related research.
