GKT137831 is a specific dual NADPH oxidase Nox1/Nox4 inhibitor, respectively[1].

Both Nox1 and Nox4 expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are targeted to discreet intracellular locations, are differentially regulated in response to growth factors and vascular injury, and are activated by distinct mechanis

In vitro: GKT137831 lowers hypoxia-induced H(2)O(2) release, cell proliferation, and TGF-β1 expression and attenuated reductions in PPARγ in HPAECs and HPASMCs. [2] GKT137831 also is a blockade of oxidative stress in response to hyperglycemia in human aortic endothelial cells. [3]

In vivo: In WT and SOD1mut mice, GKT137831 (60 mg/kg i.g.) prevents liver fibrosis and downregulates markers of oxidative stress, inflammation, and fibrosis. [1] In mouse model of chronic hypoxia exposure, GKT137831 (60 mg/kg/d p.o.) attenuates lung PPARγ and TGF-β1 expression of chronic hypoxia–induced right ventricular hypertrophy, vascular remodeling, lung cell proliferation, and hypoxic alterations [2]. GKT137831 (60 mg/kg/d p.o.) also attenuates diabetes mellitus-stimulated atherosclerosis in diabetic apolipoprotein E-deficient mice. [3] Furtermore, GKT137831 prevents the increase of oxidative stress in angII-infused c-hNox4Tg mice, abolishes Akt-mTOR and NF-κB signaling pathway and lowers cardiac remodeling. [4]

Clinical trial: Clinical study has been conducted.
