Product Description

Netarsudil (formerly known as AR-13324; AR13324; trade name Rhopressa) is ROCK inhibitor approved in 2017 for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. It inhibits ROCK with Ki of 0.2-10.3 nM. Netarsudil also inhibits norepinephrine transport activity which can reduce the production of aqueous humor. As of 2018, Netarsudil has been approved by FDA for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Previous study showed that at the cellular level, netarsudil was able to induce loss of actin stress fibers, cell shape changes, loss of focal adhesions, as well as changes in extracellular matrix composition of TM cells. Netarsudil primarily targets cells in the conventional outflow tract, efficiently decreasing IOP in both human and non-human primate eyes. In addition, netarsudil has been shown to increase outflow facility in non-human primate eyes and to decrease episcleral venous pressure in rabbit eyes.

Kinase Assay: Netarsudil (formerly known as AR-13324) is ROCK inhibitor with Ki of 0.2-10.3 nM. It also inhibits norepinephrine transport activity which can reduce the production of aqueous humor.

ln Vivo
Animal efficacy study found that the topical treatment of netarsudil was able to affect both proximal (trabecular meshwork and Schlemms Canal) and distal portions (intrascleral vessels) of the mouse conventional outflow tract.
Enzyme Assay
A total of 23 ROCK structures were found in the PDB. The maximum and minimum resolutions were 3.4 Å and 2.93 Å, respectively. Seven ROCK-I and two ROCK-II non-redundant structures were selected for the binding assay. Out of 46 compounds tested (20 isoquinolines, 15 aminofurazan, 6 benzodiazepine, 4 indazoles, and 1 amide), 34 presented a significantly higher docking score for ROCK-1, when compared to Y-27632 (p < 0.0001). All ROCKi classes presented a stronger mean docking score than Y-27632 (p < 0.0001). The frequency of compounds presenting highest docking score was higher in the isoquinoline, aminofurazan, and benzodiazepine classes for ROCK-I; and in isoquinolines and amides for ROCK-II (Supplementary Figure S2A). The top ten compounds that presented the highest mean docking scores for ROCK-I and II are shown in Supplementary Figure S2B. The isoquinoline class represented 70% of the drugs within the top ten highest docking scores, with three compounds presenting a docking score stronger than 􀀀12. There were no significant differences among ROCK inhibitors other than Y-27632. Interestingly, in silico molecular docking simulation showed that the majority of the molecules evaluated, specifically fromthe isoquinoline, benzodiazepine, and amide classes, had higher binding strength for ROCK-1 and ROCK-2 than Y-27632 (Supplementary Figure S2B). In silico molecular docking simulation was performed, coupling isoforms found for AR-13324 and Y-27632 inhibitors in the PDB to high-resolution ROCK proteins. All of the AR-13324 molecules tested had a higher docking score for ROCK-1 and -2 than Y-27632. In addition, PDB molecules from the isoquinoline, benzodiazepine, and amide classes also showed superior mean docking scores than Y-27632 isoforms (Supplementary Figure S2B)[3].
Cell Assay
The proliferation rates of primary CECs were assessed using the EdU incorporation Click-iT cell proliferation assay as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Two ROCK inhibitors, AR-13324 and AR-13503, were assessed for their capacity to enhance proliferation of CECs, with two concentrations (100 nM or 1 M for AR-13324 and 1 M or 10 M for AR-13503). Donor-matched CECs with no ROCKi added served as negative control, whereas CECs with Y-27632 added served as positive control. Briefly, cultured CECs, passaged using TS, were seeded onto FNC-coated glass slides at a density of 5  103 cells per cm2 and maintained in M5-Endo for 24 h (Day 1). On the second day (Day 2), the medium was switched to each respective condition, and cells were cultured for another 24 h. On the third day, cells were incubated in M4-F99 containing 10mMof EdU for 24 h. Subsequently, samples were rinsed once with PBS before they were fixed in freshly prepared 4% PFA for 15 min at room temperature. Next, Samples were rinsed twice with 3% BSA in PBS and were incubated in 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS for 20 min at room temperature for blocking and permeabilization. Incorporated EdU was detected by fluorescent-azide-coupling Click-iT reaction where samples were incubated for 30 min in the dark with a reaction mixture containing Click-iT EdU reaction buffer, CuSO4, azide-conjugated Alexa Fluor 488 dye, and reaction buffer additive. Following that, samples were rinsed with 3% BSA before incubating in 5 g/mL Hoechst 33,342 for 10 min at room temperature in the dark. Finally, samples were washed twice in PBS and mounted in Vectashield containing 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). Labelled proliferative cells were examined under a Zeiss Axioplan 2 fluorescence microscope. At least 250 nuclei were analyzed for each experimental condition[3].

Additional Infomation
A Rho kinase inhibitor with norepinephrine transport inhibitory activity that reduces production of aqueous As of December 18, 2017 the FDA approved Aerie Pharmaceutical's Rhopressa (netarsudil ophthalmic solution) 0.02% for the indication of reducing elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Acting as both a rho kinase inhibitor and a norepinephrine transport inhibitor, Netarsudil is a novel glaucoma medication in that it specifically targets the conventional trabecular pathway of aqueous humour outflow to act as an inhibitor to the rho kinase and norepinephrine transporters found there as opposed to affecting protaglandin F2-alpha analog like mechanisms in the unconventional uveoscleral pathway that many other glaucoma medications demonstrate.
Netarsudil is a Rho Kinase Inhibitor. The mechanism of action of netarsudil is as a Rho Kinase Inhibitor. Netarsudil is an amino-isoquinoline amide and inhibitor of Rho kinase (ROCK) and norepinephrine transporter (NET), with potential intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering activity. Upon ocular administration, netarsudil inhibits ROCK and the Rho pathway, increases aqueous humor (AH) outflow via the trabecular pathway, and lowers IOP. In addition, netarsudil may lower IOP by decreasing episcleral venous pressure and decreasing the production of aqueous humor through inhibition of NET.
