Bioactivity | Halofuginone (RU-19110) hydrobromid, a Febrifugine derivative, is a competitive prolyl-tRNA synthetase inhibitor with a Ki of 18.3 nM. Halofuginone hydrobromid is a specific inhibitor of type-I collagen synthesis and attenuates osteoarthritis (OA) by inhibition of TGF-β activity. Halofuginone hydrobromid is also a potent pulmonary vasodilator by activating Kv channels and blocking voltage-gated, receptor-operated and store-operated Ca2+ channels. Halofuginone hydrobromid has anti-malaria, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-fibrosis effects[1][2][3][4][5]. |

Invitro | Halofuginone hydrobromid 通过占据脯氨酰-tRNA 合成酶的脯氨酸和 tRNA 结合袋来竞争性抑制脯氨酰-tRNA 合成酶[1]。 Halofuginone hydrobromid (1、10、100、1000、10000 nM; 48 小时) 在 KYSE70 和 A549 细胞中的 IC 50 分别为 1.6 和 58.9 nM[1]。在 KYSE70 和 A549 细胞中,Halofuginone hydrobromid (1、10、100、1000 nM; 24 h) 对 NRF2 蛋白的 IC 50 值分别为 22.3 和 37.2 nM。在 KYSE70 和 A549 细胞中,Halofuginone hydrobromid 对整体蛋白质合成的 IC50 分别为 22.6 和 45.7 nM[1]。Halofuginone hydrobromid 可增加肺动脉平滑肌细胞 (PASMC) 中的电压门控 K+ (Kv) 电流以及转染 KCNA5 基因的 HEK 细胞中通过 KCNA5 通道的 K+ 电流。Halofuginone hydrobromid (0.03-1μM) 抑制转染钙敏感受体基因的 HEK 细胞中受体操纵的 Ca2+ 内流 (ROCE),并减弱 PASMC 中钙池操纵的 (SOCE) Ca2+ 内流 [5]。 MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods.

In Vivo | Halofuginone hydrobromid (0.2, 0.5, 1 or 2.5 mg/kg; injected intraperitoneally every other day for 1 month) 可减轻前交叉韧带横断 (ACLT) 小鼠的 OA 进展。较低浓度 (0.2 或 0.5 mg/kg) 对软骨下骨的影响最小,较高浓度 (2.5 mg/kg) 会导致关节软骨中蛋白聚糖损失[3]。Halofuginone hydrobromid (0.25 mg/kg; intraperitoneally injected; every day; 16 days) 可降低肿瘤中的 NRF2 蛋白水平。虽然在使用载体、Halofuginone hydrobromid (0.25 mg/kg, intraperitoneally injected, every day) 或单独顺铂治疗之间肿瘤体积没有显着变化。与单独使用 Halofuginone hydrobromid 或顺铂治疗相比,Halofuginone hydrobromid 和顺铂联合治疗可显着抑制肿瘤体积[1]。腹腔内注射Halofuginone (0.3mg/kg, for 2 weeks) 可部分逆转小鼠已形成的肺动脉高压[5]。 MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods.
