Product Description

Setanaxib (also known as GKT-137831; GTK831) is a novel, specific, potent, orally bioavailable, and dual inhibitor of NADPH oxidase NOX1/NOX4 with Ki of 110 nM and 140 nM, respectively. It was discovered by rational drug design following a campaign of high-throughput screening on several NOX isoforms. Initially, GKT137831 was developed to treat Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and obtained orphan drug designation from both FDA and EMEA in 2010. GKT137831 attenuates hypoxia-induced H2O2 release, cell proliferation, and TGF-β1 expression and blunted reductions in PPARγ in HPAECs and HPASMCs. GKT137831 also prevents oxidative stress in response to hyperglycemia in human aortic endothelial cells. In WT and SOD1mut mice, GKT137831 (60 mg/kg i.g.) prevents liver fibrosis and downregulates markers of oxidative stress, inflammation, and fibrosis.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Nox4 (Ki =140 nM); Nox1 (Ki =110 nM)
ln Vitro
A strong Nox1/4 inhibitor, setanaxib (GKT137831) with a Kis of 140±40/110±30 nM[1]. Setanaxib (GKT137831) administration attenuates HPASMC proliferation under normoxic conditions at the 20 μM concentration during the 72-hour exposure to hypoxia or normoxia, but has no effect on proliferation in normoxic HPAECs. Setanaxib (GKT137831) inhibits the growth of HPASMC and HPAEC caused by hypoxia at concentrations of 5 and 20 μM in the preventive paradigm. The pulmonary vascular cell proliferation induced by hypoxia is inhibited by Setanaxib (GKT137831), according to complementary assays detecting PCNA expression or manual cell counting[2].
ln Vivo
For the latter half of their CCl4 injections, some mice receive daily treatments of Setanaxib (GKT137831). Compared to WT mice, SOD1mu exhibit more severe hepatic fibrosis as a result of CCl4 exposure. Treating SOD1mu and WT mice with Setanaxib (GKT137831) reduces liver fibrosis. Setanaxib (GKT37831) treatment significantly reduces the elevated hepatic α-SMA expression in SOD1mu mice, bringing it down to a level comparable to WT animals given the NOX1/4 inhibitor[1].
Enzyme Assay
Measurement of ROS Generation in HSCs[1]
HSCs were preincubated with the redox-sensitive dye DCFDA (10 μM) for 20 minutes and then stimulated with 10−6 M Ang II or vehicle (PBS) with 20 μM NOX1/4 inhibitor [Setanaxib (GKT137831)] or vehicle (PBS). DCFDA fluorescence was measured with a multiwall fluorescence scanner.
Rac1 activity assay[1]
Rac1 activity in HSCs was determined with the Rac1 G-LISA™ activation assay kit. (Cytoskelton, Inc.). Briefly, WT or SOD1 mutant HSCs were treated by 10−6 M Ang II (Sigma) or vehicle (PBS) with 20 μM NOX1/4 inhibitor[Setanaxib (GKT137831)] or vehicle (PBS) for 24 hours. According to the manufacturer’s protocol, protein lysate was extracted and Rac1 activity was determined by luminescence intensity.
Cell Assay
Monolayers of HPAECs and HPASMCs were propagated in culture and placed in normoxic (21% O2, 5% CO2) or hypoxic (1% O2, 5% CO2) conditions for 72 hours as previously reported. GKT137831 (0.1–20 μM), or vehicle (1% DMSO) were added to the culture medium at the onset (prevention regimen) or during the last 24 hours (intervention regimen) of a 72-hour hypoxia exposure regimen. More detailed information about GKT137831 dosing and specificity is provided in the online supplement[2].
Animal Protocol
NOX1 knockout (NOX1KO) mice in a C57BL/6 background were developed by KH Krause as described. For the carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) model of liver fibrosis, 6 week old male mice were injected intraperitoneally with CCl4, which was diluted 1:3 in corn oil, or with vehicle (corn oil) at a dose of 0.5 μL/g of body weight twice a week for a total of 12 injections. During the last half of CCl4 treatment, mice were treated with 60 mg/kg of the NOX1/4 inhibitor GKT137831 or vehicle by intragastric injection daily. Mice were sacrificed 48 hours after the last CCl4 injection. For the bile duct ligation (BDL) model, 6 week old male mice were anesthetized. After laparotomy, the common bile duct was ligated twice and the abdomen closed. The sham operation was performed similarly without BDL. From 11 days after operation, mice were treated with 60 mg/kg of the NOX1/4 inhibitor GKT137831 or vehicle by daily intragastric lavage. Mice were sacrificed 21 days after operation. [1]
Mouse Model of Chronic Hypoxia Exposure[2]
Mice were exposed to normoxia or hypoxia (10% O2) for 3 weeks as we reported (12). During the final 10 days of exposure to hypoxic or normoxic conditions, each animal was given rosiglitazone (10 mg/kg/d) or GKT137831 (30 or 60 mg/kg/d) daily by oral gavage. At the conclusion of these exposures, right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP), right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH), and pulmonary vascular remodeling were determined, and the expression of selected targets was examined in lung tissue as described in the online supplement.

Additional Infomation
Setanaxib is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases (NOX) 1 and 4, with potential anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic and antineoplastic activities. Upon oral administration, setanaxib targets, binds to and inhibits the activity of NOX1 and NOX4. This inhibits NOX1- and NOX4- mediated signal transduction pathways, thereby reducing inflammation and fibrosis. By targeting NOX4-overexpressing cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME), setanaxib may also inhibit myofibroblastic activation and enhance both the penetration of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and antitumor T-cell immune responses. The NOX enzymes NOX1 and NOX4 primarily produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which plays important roles in cellular signaling processes that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation and migration, and inflammation and fibrosis.
