| Bioactivity | LDN-27219 is a reversible, slow-binding inhibitor of TGase. LDN-27219 inhibits human TGase with an IC50 value of 0.6 μM. LDN-27219 effectively decreases blood pressure and induces vasodilation, it can be used for the research of cardiovascular disease[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
| Target | IC50: 0.6 μM (hTGase) | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | LDN-27219 (30 μM; 12 min) promotes the closed conformation of TGase 2 to activates calcium-activated potassium channels in smooth muscle cells[2].LDN-27219 (30 μM; 20-25 min) increases the response to acetylcholine in phenylephrine-contracted human subcutaneous arteries[2]. | ||||||||||||
| In Vivo | LDN-27219 (0.1-2 mg/kg; i.v. once) affects vivo arterial pressure and shows larger effects on older rats[2]. Animal Model: | ||||||||||||
