RepSox is a small molecule inhibitor of TGFβR1,[1][2] also known as ALK5, that was first identified in the wake of the discovery of the Yamanaka factors.[3] It has shown promise in a variety of in-vitro and in-vivo rodent trials modelling various diseases. It inhibits TGFβR1 autophosphorylation by preventing the protein from binding with ATP, inhibits the binding of TGF-β to TGFβR1, and prevents the transcription of genes activated by TGFβR1 with nanomolar potency.[4] RepSox is a member of the 1,5-naphthyridine class.

Research

In an in-vivo trial of rats with ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis, RepSox was shown to prevent bone loss.[1] RepSox is included as a part of some chemical cocktails intended for cellular reprogramming and anti-aging,[5] where it works by inducing the expression of the gene Nanog.[6]

RepSox suppresses the proliferation of osteosarcoma cells via suppression of the JNK/Smad3 signalling pathway, and was able to induce cell cycle arrest, promote apoptosis and prevent migration of the cancer cells. The results were replicated both in-vitro and in-vivo.[7]

RepSox was able to promote the transformation of glial cells to neurons in the enteric nervous system of adult mice, consequently influencing gastrointestinal motility, and underlining a potential therapeutic use of RepSox in enteric neuropathies.[8]

History

RepSox was discovered by a team at the Harvard Stem Cell Institute looking for way to induce pluripotency without inserting the gene Sox2 into cells. They discovered a molecule which was capable of this but also was able to reprogram cells in the absence of c-Myc, a tumour promoting gene. They named the molecule RepSox since it can replace Sox2 and in homage to the Boston Red Sox.[3]

Projection of Earth's equator out into space The celestial equator is currently inclined by about 23.44° to the ecliptic plane. The image shows the relations between Earth's axial tilt (or obliquity), rotation axis, and orbital plane. The celestial equator is the great circle of the imaginary celestial sphere on the same plane as the equator of Earth. By extension, it is also a plane of reference in the equatorial coordinate system. In other words, the celestial equator is an abstract projec...
