In vitro study | In hepatocytes, Dorsomorphin inhibits ACC inactivation by AICAR or metformin and attenuates the effect of AICAR or metformin to increase fatty acid oxidation or inhibit adipogenic genes. Inhibition of AMPK activity by Dorsomorphin almost completely inhibited autophagy proteolysis in HT-29 cells. In addition, Dorsomorphin selectively inhibits the BMP type I receptors ALK2,ALK3 and ALK6, thereby blocking BMP-mediated SMAD1/5/8 phosphorylation, target gene transcription and osteogenic differentiation. |
In vivo study | Dorsomophin (10 mg/kg) decreased basal levels of hepcidin expression in adult mice and increased serum iron concentrations. Dorsomorphin (0.2 mg/kg, I. v.) significantly reduced VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression in LPS-treated rat thoracic aortas. |

Dorsomorphin (Compound C, BML-275) is an effective, reversibly selective AMPK inhibitor. Ki is 109 nM in cell-free test. It is effective for several structurally related kinases, including ZAPK,SYK,PKC & theta;,PKA, and JAK3 have no significant inhibitory effect. It also inhibits the activity of type I BMP receptors ALK2,ALK3 and ALK6. Dorsomorphin are applied to promote the differentiation of specific cells and induce autophagy of cancer cells. For animal experiments, it is recommended to choose the water soluble product S7306 Dorsomorphin (Compound C) 2HCl.
In vitro studies
In hepatocytes, Dorsomorphin inhibits ACC inactivation through AICAR or metformin, and attenuates the effects of AICAR or metformin on increasing fatty acid oxidation or inhibiting lipogenic genes. In HT-29 cells, Dorsomorphin inhibition of AMPK activity almost completely inhibited autophagy protein hydrolysis. In addition, Dorsomorphin selectively inhibit BMP type I receptors ALK2,ALK3 and ALK6, thereby blocking BMP-mediated SMAD1/5/8 phosphorylation, target gene transcription and osteogenic differentiation.
In vivo studies
Dorsomorphin (10 mg/kg) reduces the basal level of ferritin expression in adult mice and increases the concentration of serum iron. Dorsomorphin (0.2 mg/kg, I. v.) significantly reduced the expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 in LPS-treated thoracic aorta of rats.
