Fasudil HCl (formerly known as HA1077; HA 1077; HA-1077), the hydrochloride salt of fasudil, is a potent multikinase inhibitor of ROCK-II, PKA, PKG, PKC, and MLCK with the potential to be used for the treatment of cerebral vasospasm. It is also a promising drug candidate for a disease-modifying therapy of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Fasudil inhibits ROCK-II, PKA, PKG, PKC, and MLCKwith Ki of 0.33 μM, 1.6 μM, 1.6 μM, 3.3 μM and 36 μM in cell-free assays, respectively. It is used as a vasodilator for the treatment of cerebral vasospasm, which is often due to subarachnoid hemorrhage, as well as to improve the cognitive decline seen in stroke victims. Fasudil is found to be effective for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension.
ln Vitro |
In rat HSCs (hepatic stellate cells) and human HSC-derived TWNT-4 cells, facsudil hydrochloride (100 μM) suppresses cell development by blocking cell spreading, stress fiber production, and α-SMA expression[4]. In rat HSCs and human HSC-derived TWNT-4 cells, Fasudil Hydrochloride (50-100 μM; 24 hours) suppresses the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, JNK, and p38 caused by LPA (lysophoaphatidic acid)[4]. In human HSC-derived TWNT-4 cells, facdilin hydrochloride (25–100 μM; 24 hours) promotes MMP-1 transcription while suppressing collagen and TIMP transcription[4].

ln Vivo |
When administered intravenously one hour before to surgery, facudil hydrochloride (10 mg/kg) has been shown to protect against cardiovascular disease, inhibit JNK activation, and lessen the amount of AIF that is translocated between the mitochondria and nucleus during ischemia[5]. ?Fasudil hydrochloride (50 mg/kg/d; ip) suppresses the proteolipid protein PLP p139-151, which causes acute and relapsing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). It also decreases lymphocyte proliferation, downregulates interleukin (IL)-17, and significantly lowers the IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio[6]. ?Fasudil hydrochloride (100 mg/kg/d; po) suppresses inflammation, demyelination, axonal loss, and APP positivity in the mouse spinal cord. It also considerably lowers the incidence and pathological examination score of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in SJL/J mice[6].

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.34 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 20.8 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. View More

*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.
