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.

| 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). |
