Bioactivity | NUCC-555 is an activin antagonist. NUCC-555 interacts with Trp25, Trp28, Phe55, Tyr93, Lys103, and Asn107 in the Activin A binding pocket. NUCC-555 blocks Activin A-mediated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) activation. NUCC-555 promotes liver regeneration and halts fibrosis progression in chronic liver disease models. NUCC-555 inhibits Activin A-mediated ovarian cell proliferation. NUCC-555 decreases FSH levels in ovariectomized mice[1][2]. |
