Biological Activity

Pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile is a derivative of pregnendione that functions as an agonist of the rodent pregnane X receptor (PXR). pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile is a synthetic steroid that induces expression of cytochrome P450 3A. Pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile exhibits greater tolerance to subsequent stress injury.

Conversion of different model animals based on BSA (PMID: 27057123)
Species Mouse Rat Rabbit Guinea pig Hamster Dog
Weight (kg) 0.02 0.15 1.8 0.4 0.08 10
Body Surface Area (m2) 0.007 0.025 0.15 0.05 0.02 0.5
Km factor 3 6 12 8 5 20
Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by  Animal B Km
Animal A Km

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.

TP0472993

TP0472993 is a novel, orally active, selective inhibitor of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) synthesis that inhibits the production of 20-HETE, thereby reducing the ERK1/2 and STAT3 signaling pathways, and ultimately inhibiting the progression of renal fibrosis. It can be used in studies related to chronic kidney disease (CKD).
