Furegrelate (sodium salt) is a potent inhibitor of thromboxane synthase [1][2].
Thromboxane A synthase 1 (platelet, cytochrome P450, family 5, subfamily A) is a cytochrome P450 enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 to thromboxane A2. Thromboxanes play an important role in vasoconstriction and platelet aggregation.
Furegrelate (sodium salt), also known as sodium 5-(3'-pyridinylmethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylate (U-63557A), is a potent, specific and orally available thromboxane synthase inhibitor. U-63557A is a potent inhibitor of the thromboxane synthase in human platelets in vitro, as well as in rhesus monkey platelets ex vivo. U-63557A didn’t inhibit thrombin-stimulated PGI2 biosynthesis in human endothelial cells, the 5-lipoxygenase in human neutrophils, or the cyclooxygenase in a variety of test systems [2].
In rhesus monkeys, U-63557A inhibited the platelet thromboxane synthase by approximately 80% for at least 12 hrs. In anesthetized dogs, U-63557A inhibited the blockage of stenosed coronary arteries caused platelet aggregation. While the protective effects of U-63557A could be reversed by cyclooxygenase inhibitors. U-63557A is a promising compound for the evaluation of the role of thromboxane synthase in a variety of pathophysiological states [2].

General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |
