YC-1

Synonym(s):3-(5ʹ-Hydroxymethyl-2ʹ-furyl)-1-benzylindazole;3-(5′-Hydroxymethyl-2′-furyl)-1-benzyl indazole;YC-1 - CAS 170632-47-0 - Calbiochem

YC-1 Structural

What is YC-1?

Description

YC-1 (170632-47-0) is a nitric oxide-independent activator of soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC). Significantly elevates cGMP levels and inhibits collagen-stimulated aggregation of rabbit platelets (IC50?= 14.6 μM).1?Induces human endometrial cancer cell senescence via modulation of HIF1α activity.2?Induces degradation of HIF1α.3?Protects against glutamate-induced neuronal damage4?and β-amyloid-induced toxicity in differentiated PC12 cells5.

The Uses of YC-1

YC-1 has been used as a hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) inhibitor:

  • to reduce hypoxia induced Jagged1 expression in cardiomyocytes (CMs)
  • to study its effect on progenitor expansion and CD34+ and side population (SP) cell phenotype and on the proliferation rate of cells with an ability to form long term colony forming units
  • to study its effect on regulating sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) bound to albumin induced plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) expression by activating Rho/ Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) pathway.

What are the applications of Application

YC-1 is an agent that can activate sGC independent of nitric oxide activation

Definition

ChEBI: Lificiguat is a member of the class of indazoles that is 1H-indazole which is substituted by a benzyl group at position 1 and a 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furyl group at position 3. It is an activator of soluble guanylate cyclase and inhibits platelet aggregation. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, a soluble guanylate cyclase activator, an apoptosis inducer, a platelet aggregation inhibitor and a vasodilator agent. It is a member of indazoles, a member of furans and an aromatic primary alcohol.

General Description

A nitric oxide-independent, superoxide-sensitive activator of soluble guanylyl cyclase. Inhibits platelet adhesion to collagen and acts as an antithrombotic agent. Reported to reduce HIF-1α levels and xenograft growth.

Biochem/physiol Actions

YC-1 activates soluble guanylyl cyclase and prevents platelet aggregation and vascular contraction. It has a potential to treat circulation disorders. YC-1 also has an ability to inhibit hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) activity in vitro. It acts as a potential antiangiogenic anticancer agent.
