Description of RepSox

RepSox is a potent and selective inhibitor of transforming growth factor-β receptor I/activin-like kinase 5 (TGF-β-RI/ALK5) with an IC50 of 23nM[1]. RepSox inhibits ALK5 autophosphorylation with an IC50 of 4nM[2]. RepSox can be used to study obesity and related metabolic diseases (such as type 2 diabetes)[3].

In vitro, treatment of mouse embryonic fibroblasts with RepSox (10μM) for 8-10days induced the generation of many adipocytes, enhanced brown preadipocyte differentiation, and promoted the browning of white preadipocytes[4]. Treatment of osteosarcoma cell lines (HOS and 143B cells) with RepSox (0-200μM) for 24-96h inhibited cell proliferation in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, significantly inhibited colony size and number, increased the expression of pro-apoptotic Bax protein, and decreased the expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein[5].

In vivo, RepSox (3, 10mg/kg) was administered to adult mice via oral gavage for 2 weeks, which significantly promoted the transformation of enteric glial cells into enteric nervous system neurons, affected gastrointestinal motility, and enhanced gastrointestinal motility in mice[6]. RepSox (2, 5mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally to osteoporosis (OP) model mice for 4 weeks, which prevented bone loss in vivo, reduced the number of osteoclasts, and lowered serum CTX-1 (a bone resorption marker) [7].

Protocol of RepSox

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs)

Preparation Method

Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) were isolated from C57BL/6 mouse embryos at embryonic day 13.5. The fully confluent cells were cultured in differentiation-inducing medium containing 10μM CHIR99021, 10μM RepSox, or 50μM Forskolin for 8-10 days, with the medium changed every 2 days. The differentiated cells were washed with PBS and then fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 minutes at room temperature. Oil Red O solution and water were mixed in a ratio of 3:2 and layered on the cells for 10 minutes. After staining, the excess Oil Red O was washed with 60% isopropanol, then washed with deionized water, and images were taken under a microscope.

Reaction Conditions

10μM; 8-10d

Applications

Many adipocyte-like cells appeared in MEFs treated with RepSox, Forskolin treatment induced weak adipocyte differentiation, whereas CHIR99021 treatment had no effect.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

GFAP-Cre:Rosa26-tdTomato mice

Preparation Method

Induction of the transformation of Enteric glial cells (EGCs) into enteric neurons was performed using 10-week-old adult GFAP-Cre:Rosa26-tdTomato mice in situ. RepSox was dissolved in 0.5% CMC-Na (sodium carboxymethyl cellulose), and the control group was given only 0.5% CMC-Na. Mice were gavaged with RepSox (3 or 10 mg/kg/day) and 0.5% CMC-Na for 2 consecutive weeks. The mice were fasted for 20h with access to water ad libitum. Before the test of intestinal motility, each mouse was given carmine and then free access to water and food ad libitum. The time of the first red stool appearance in the mice was recorded, as well as the number of defecations within 6 h and the wet and dry weight of the feces. After mouse intestinal motility testing, all mice were sacrificed, and the small intestine LMMP tissue was exfoliated to perform immunofluorescence staining.

Dosage form

3 or 10mg/kg/day for 2 weeks; p.o.

Applications

Administration of RepSox significantly promoted the conversion of enteric glial cells to neurons in the enteric nervous system and influenced gastrointestinal motility in adult mice.
