XRF-1021
XRF-1021 is an orally active HIPK2 inhibitor (IC50 = 0.18 μM). XRF-1021 reduces the expression of fibrotic markers in TGF-β1 stimulated NRK-49F and HK-2 cells, including Fibronectin, Collagen I and α-SMA. XRF-1021 blocks TGF-β, NF-κB, p53, Wnt/β-catenin, and Notch signaling. XRF-1021 reduces renal injury and fibrosis in vivo. XRF-1021 can be used for the research of chronic kidney disease.

Biological Activity
|
HIPK2 0.18 μM (IC50) |
NF-κB |
XRF-1021 (3-100 μM, 48 h) inhibits the proliferation of TGF-β1-stimulated NRK-49F cells, with an IC50 value of 4.87 μM, indicating potential modulation of HIPK2-mediated pathways[1].
XRF-1021 (100 μM, 24 h) directly binds to HIPK2 and exhibits high binding stability (RMSD of approximately 0.1 Å, RMSF < 0.1 Å)[1].
XRF-1021 (2.5-80 μM, 24 h) does not significantly affect the proliferation or viability of HK-2 cells at concentrations of 2.5, 5, and 10 μM[1].
XRF-1021 (2.5-10 μM, 24 h) inhibits HIPK2 and downstream signaling to attenuate fibrosis in HK-2 cells[1].
XRF-1021 (2.5-10 μM, 24 h) reduces the expression of HIPK2, FN and α-SMA proteins in NRK-49F cells[1].

-
Cell Line:TGF-β1-stimulated HK-2 cells
-
Concentration:2.5, 5, 10 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Reduced the expression levels of these fibrotic markers, including FN, α-SMA, and HIPK2 protein expression in HK-2 cells dose-dependently.
Exhibited the most pronounced inhibitory effect at 10 μmol/L.
-
Cell Line:TGF-β1-stimulated HK-2 cells
-
Concentration:0, 10 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Significantly attenuated the phosphorylation levels of both proteins, indicating effective suppression of the TGF-β and NF-κB pathways.
Effectively reversed these TGF-β1-induced increases, including Wnt/β-catenin pathway target genes (PAI-1, Axin2, and MMP7) and Notch pathway target genes (Hes1, Hey1, and Hey2).
XRF-1021 (25-100 mg/kg, p.o.) alleviates renal tubular injury, reduces interstitial fibrosis, and improves renal function by inhibiting HIPK2 and multiple downstream pro-fibrotic signaling pathways, including the TGF-β, NF-κB, p53, Wnt/β-catenin, and Notch pathways in the C57BL/6J mouse adenine diet model[1].

-
Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats[1]
-
Dosage:25, 50 and 75 mg/kg
-
Administration:oral administration (p.o.)
-
Result:Partially ameliorated these pathological changes in a dose-dependent manner, with the 75 mg/kg dose showing greater efficacy.
Relieved renal injury and renal fibrosis and diminished the expression levels of related renal fibrosis indicators.
Suppressed the protein expression of fibrotic markers (FN, Collagen I, α-SMA, Vimentin) and HIPK2.
Inhibited HIPK2-regulated p53 pathway, TGF-β/Smad3, NF-κB, Wnt/β-catenin and Notch pathways.
-
Animal Model:Male C57BL/6J mice (seven weeks)[1]
-
Dosage:25, 50 and 100 mg/kg
-
Administration:oral administration (p.o.)
-
Result:Mitigated renal lesions and interstitial fibrosis in a dose-dependent manner, with the 100 mg/kg dose showing the most pronounced effect.
Reduced serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and uric acid levels dose-dependently.
Downregulated the expression of HIPK2, collagen I, α-SMA, and vimentin in the kidneys of adenine-fed mice.
Reduced phosphorylation levels of Smad3, NF-κB and p53.
