生物活性 | Halofuginone (RU-19110) hydrobromid, a Febrifugine derivative, is a competitiveprolyl-tRNA synthetaseinhibitor with aKiof 18.3 nM[1][2]. Halofuginone hydrobromid is a specific inhibitor oftype-I collagensynthesis and attenuates osteoarthritis (OA) by inhibition ofTGF-βactivity[3][4]. Halofuginone hydrobromid is also a potent pulmonary vasodilator by activatingKv channelsand blocking voltage-gated, receptor-operated and store-operatedCa2+channels. Halofuginone hydrobromid has anti-malaria, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-fibrosis effects[5]. |

体外研究 (In Vitro) | Halofuginone competitively inhibits prolyl-tRNA synthetase by occupying both the prolineand tRNA-binding pockets of prolyl-tRNA synthetase[1]. The IC50s of Halofuginone (1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000 nM; 48 hours) are 114.6 and 58.9 nM in KYSE70 and A549 cells, respectively. The IC50s of Halofuginone (1, 10, 100, 1000 nM; 24 hours) for NRF2 protein are 22.3 and 37.2 nM in KYSE70 and A549 cells, respectively. The IC50of Halofuginone for global protein synthesis is 22.6 and 45.7 nM in KYSE70 and A549 cells, respectively[1]. Halofuginone increases voltage-gated K+(Kv) currents in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC) and K+currents through KCNA5 channels in HEK cells transfected with KCNA5 gene. Halofuginone (0.03-1μM) inhibits receptor-operated Ca2+entry (ROCE) in HEK cells transfected with calcium-sensing receptor gene and attenuated store-operated (SOCE) Ca2+entry in PASMC[5].

体内研究 (In Vivo) | Halofuginone (0.2, 0.5, 1 or 2.5 mg/kg; injected intraperitoneally every other day for 1 month) attenuates progression of OA in anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) mice. Lower concentration (0.2 or 0.5 mg/kg) has minimal effects on subchondral bone and higher concentration (2.5 mg/kg) induces proteoglycan loss in articular cartilage[3]. Halofuginone (0.25 mg/kg; intraperitoneally injected; every day; 16 days) decreases NRF2 protein levels in tumors. While the tumor volumes do not change substantially between treatments with the vehicle, Halofuginone (0.25 mg/kg, intraperitoneally injected, every day) or cisplatin alone. Combined treatment with Halofuginone and Cisplatin significantly suppresses the tumor volume compared to treatment with Halofuginone or cisplatin alone[1]. Intraperitoneal administration of Halofuginone (0.3mg/kg, for 2 weeks) partially reverses the established pulmonary hypertension in mice[5].
Animal Model: | 3-month-old male C57BL/6J (WT) mice[3] | Dosage: | 0.2, 0.5, 1 or 2.5 mg/kg | Administration: | Injected intraperitoneally every other day for 1 month | Result: | Attenuated progression of OA in ACLT mice. |
Animal Model: | Male nude mice (BALB/C nu/nu mice) (6-8-week)[1] | Dosage: | 0.25 mg/kg | Administration: | Intraperitoneally injected; every day; 16 days | Result: | The combined treatment with Cisplatin significantly suppressed the tumor volume. NRF2 protein levels in tumors were indeed decreased. |
