AH001 — Datasheet

Biological Activity

AH001 is a orally active RhoA inhibitor, which binds a cryptic pocket proximate to GDP within RhoA with a KD of 73.16 nM. AH001 interacts with GDP, stabilizing RhoA’s interaction with its endogenous inhibitor, RhoGDIα. AH001 reduces the downstream MRTFA nuclear translocation and downregulates fibrosis/hypertrophy proteins. AH001 mitigates myocardial remodeling in multiple HF animal models, and in the 3D myocardial tissue model. AH001 exerts its cardioprotective effects through the RhoA-RhoGDIα axis, effectively inhibiting downstream RhoA activation signaling.

Published experimental findings depend on the model and assay conditions. They do not guarantee equivalent performance in every application. For laboratory research use only.
