    Product Description

    Digoxigenin is a Na+/K+-ATPase inhibitor and an active metabolite of digoxin (Item No. 22266).1,2 It is formed from digoxin by cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform 3A (CYP3A) via digoxigenin bisdigitoxoside (Item No. 35356) and digoxigenin monodigitoxoside (Item No. 21699) intermediates. Digoxigenin inhibits Na+/K+-ATPase isoforms α1β1 and α2β1 (Ki = 97 and 90 nM, respectively).1 It is also an antagonist of human-ether-a-go-go (hERG), also known as Kv11.1 (IC50 = 206.3 nM).3 Digoxigenin (100 µM) decreases intraocular pressure induced by 4-aminopyridine (Item No. 18511) in rabbits.1
