Biological Activity

Targets	ALK2

Additional Infomation	Zilurgisertib is an inhibitor of activin A receptor type 1 (activin receptor-like kinase 2; ALK2; ALK-2; ACVR1; ACTR-I), with potential anti-anemic and ossification suppressive activities. Upon administration, zilurgisertib targets, binds to and inhibits the activity of ALK-2. This prevents ALK2-mediated signaling and ALK2-mediated excessive bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling. This may suppress heterotopic ossification (HO). As ALK-2 enhances the secretion of hepcidin, a peptide liver hormone and a key modulator of iron homeostasis, zilurgisertib is able to decrease hepcidin expression in the liver, thereby increasing and restoring plasma iron levels, enhancing erythropoiesis, and correcting anemia of chronic disease (ACD). ALK2, a serine/threonine receptor kinase and type I cell surface receptor for BMPs, is constitutively activated due to activating mutations in inflammatory conditions, various types of cancer, and in fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). Elevated serum hepcidin levels enhance storage of iron, reduce iron availability and causes iron deficiency anemia.

Solubility Data

Solubility (In Vitro)

DMSO: 100 mg/mL (198.95 mM)

Solubility (In Vivo)

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

Preparing Stock Solutions		1 mg	5 mg	10 mg
	1 mM	1.9895 mL	9.9473 mL	19.8946 mL

	10 mM	0.1989 mL	0.9947 mL	1.9895 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
