Bardoxolone Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Tan Solid

Uses

Bardoxolone is a synthetic oleanane triterpenoid that exerts multifunctional activities in the control of cellular growth and differentiation. Bardoxolone is capable of activating the transcription fa ctor peroxisome proliferator activator receptor-γ (PPARγ), its apoptotic effects in malignant cells have been shown to occur independently of PPARγ. Bardoxolone was developed as an potential drug for the improvement of hyperglycemia, proteinuria, glomerulus structure, serum creatine, which may in turn be beneficial to treat diabetic kidney diseases, cancer and thromboembolic events.

Definition

ChEBI: Bardoxolone is a member of cyclohexenones.

Biological Activity

bardoxolone methyl, previously known as rta 402, is the lead molecule in reata's portfolio of antioxidant inflammation modulators (aims). the aims are potent inducers of the transcription factor nrf2, an important biological target that controls the production of many of the body's antioxidant and detoxification enzymes. because oxidative stress and inflammation occur throughout the course of chronic kidney disease (ckd) and are known to contribute to loss of kidney function, agents that activate the nrf2 pathway in patients with ckd may provide a novel method for preserving or improving kidney function. bardoxolone methyl is currently being investigated as a potential oral once-a-day treatment for ckd.
