AS 1892802

Uses

AS 1892802 is a potent, ATP-competitive ROCK inhibitor. It also inhibits PKAC-α and PRKX and exhibits analgesic effects in rat models of inflammatory (AIA) and noninflammatory (MIA) arthritic pain.

Biological Activity

as 1892802 is a potent and selective inhibitor of rock with ic50 values of 52, 57 and 122 nm for human rock2, rat rock2 and human rock1, respectively [1].rho kinase (rock) is a serine-threonine kinase and is a downstream effector of rho, a small gtp-bound protein. rock phosphorylates target proteins such as myosin light chain kinase and lim kinase and regulates cellular shape modification, migration, growth and contraction [2].as 1892802 is a potent rock inhibitor. as 1892802 inhibited rock1 and rock2 with ic50 values of 1.69 and 0.10 μm, respectively [3]. in atdc5 cells, as1892802 induce chondrocyte differentiation. in hig82 cells, as1892802 significantly inhibited prostaglandin e2 production induced by il-1β or bradykinin [4].in both an adjuvant-induced arthritis (aia) rat model and a monoiodoacetate (mia) -induced arthritis (mia) rat model, as1892802 showed potent antinociceptive effect with ed50 value of 0.15 mg/kg [1]. in monoiodoacetate-induced arthritis and streptozotocin-induced neuropathy models, as1892802 showed analgesic effect [2]. in mia-injected rats, the mrna levels of rock i and ii increased in knee joints. as1892802 significantly inhibited cartilage damage in a dose-dependent way [4].
