    Product Description

    AT-001 is an inhibitor of aldose reductase (IC50 = 28.9 pM), the enzyme that converts glucose to sorbitol in the polyol pathway.1,2 AT-001 (40 mg/kg) reduces cardiac aldose reductase activity and sorbitol levels, diastolic function deficits, left ventricular hypertrophy, and cardiac fibrosis in a mouse model of diabetic cardiomyopathy.2 It also reduces mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation in isolated mouse hearts from the same model. AT-001 (0.2 nM) prevents senescence induced by high glucose, hydrogen peroxide, or mitomycin C (Item No. 11435) in primary normal human keratinocytes (NHK cells).3
