Product Description
Dazoxiben is a potent orally bioactive thromboxane (TX) synthase inhibitor.
Dazoxiben HCl (CAS#: 74226-22-5), also known as UK-37248, is an orally active, imidazole-based competitive inhibitor of thromboxane A₂ (TXA₂) synthase (CYP5A1). With a molecular formula of C12H13ClN2O3 and a molecular weight of 268.69 g/mol, Dazoxiben HCl is the terminal enzyme responsible for synthesizing the potent vasoconstrictor and platelet aggregator TXA₂ from prostaglandin H₂ (PGH₂). It inhibits TXB₂ (the stable metabolite of TXA₂) production in clotting human whole blood with an IC50 of 0.3 μM and exhibits an in vitro IC50 of approximately 70 nM against human microsomal thromboxane synthase. Dazoxiben HCl is an investigational small molecule that reached Phase 2 clinical development. It is widely employed in research settings as a chemical probe for dissecting the role of TXA₂ in platelet function, vascular biology, pulmonary pathophysiology, and eicosanoid metabolic redirection. The compound is for research use only and is not for human therapeutic use.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Thromboxane A₂ (TXA₂) synthase (CYP5A1). Dazoxiben HCl is a potent, selective, and orally active inhibitor of thromboxane (TX) synthase. TXA₂ synthase is the terminal enzyme responsible for synthesizing TXA₂ from prostaglandin H₂ (PGH₂). Dazoxiben HCl is a competitive inhibitor that does not bind to TXA₂/PG-endoperoxide receptors at concentrations ≤10 μM, unlike dual-action agents such as ridogrel. By inhibiting TXA₂ synthase, Dazoxiben HCl blocks the production of TXA₂, a potent vasoconstrictor and platelet aggregator. This leads to a parallel elevation of PGE2 and other prostaglandins. The compound's mechanism of action is centered on enzyme inhibition rather than receptor antagonism.
ln Vitro
During human whole blood coagulation, dazoxiben inhibits TXB2 production with an IC50 of 0.3 μM, which leads to a parallel elevation of PGE2 larger than PGF2 alpha and greater than 6-keto-PGF1 alpha production [1]. Dazoxiben interacts with PGE2, PGF2 α, and 6-keto-PGF1 α Changes are unimportant. It suppresses TXB2 synthesis in rat glomeruli (IC50 = 1.60 μM) and in rat whole blood (IC50 = 0.32 μM).
Dazoxiben HCl demonstrates potent in vitro inhibition of thromboxane synthase. It inhibits TXB₂ production in clotting human whole blood with an IC50 of 0.3 μM. The compound exhibits an in vitro IC50 of approximately 70 nM against human microsomal thromboxane synthase. By inhibiting TXA₂ synthase, Dazoxiben HCl causes a parallel elevation of PGE2 production. The compound does not bind to TXA₂/PG-endoperoxide receptors at concentrations ≤10 μM. Its selectivity for TXA₂ synthase makes it a valuable tool for studying the role of TXA₂ in platelet function and vascular biology.
ln Vivo
Tail bleeding duration was dramatically extended by dazoxiben (ip; 100 μg/kg) by 96.8 ± 10.8 seconds [2].
Dazoxiben HCl has been studied in vivo for its thrombolytic effects. In a cat extracorporeal circulation model, the compound exhibited a thrombolytic ED50 of 3.8 mg/kg i.v.. As an orally active inhibitor, Dazoxiben HCl has been investigated for its potential to reduce blood clot formation. The compound reached Phase 2 clinical development. Its effects on platelet aggregation and vascular function have been evaluated in preclinical models. Detailed pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data are available from preclinical and clinical studies. Dazoxiben HCl is for research use only and is not for human therapeutic use.
Enzyme Assay
Thromboxane synthase enzyme activity assays are performed using human microsomal thromboxane synthase or clotting human whole blood. The enzyme is incubated with the substrate prostaglandin H₂ (PGH₂) in assay buffer. The production of TXB₂ (the stable metabolite of TXA₂) is quantified by ELISA or radioimmunoassay. Dazoxiben HCl is serially diluted in DMSO and added to the reaction mixture to determine IC50 values. The IC50 for TXB₂ production in clotting human whole blood is 0.3 μM. The IC50 against human microsomal thromboxane synthase is approximately 70 nM. Each concentration is tested in duplicate, and IC50 values are calculated by non-linear regression analysis. Appropriate positive controls and vehicle controls are included to validate the assay.
Cell Assay
Cellular thromboxane synthase inhibition is evaluated in platelets or other TXA₂-producing cells. Cells are cultured in appropriate media and treated with Dazoxiben HCl at various concentrations. Thromboxane B₂ (TXB₂) production is measured by ELISA. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels are also measured to assess eicosanoid redirection. Platelet aggregation assays are performed using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and aggregometry. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or LDH assays. Each experiment includes vehicle controls and appropriate positive controls to validate the assay systems.
Animal Protocol
In vivo efficacy of Dazoxiben HCl is evaluated in animal models of thrombosis and cardiovascular disease. The compound is administered intravenously or orally at doses determined by preclinical studies. In a cat extracorporeal circulation model, Dazoxiben HCl exhibited a thrombolytic ED50 of 3.8 mg/kg i.v.. Platelet aggregation and TXB₂ levels are measured ex vivo. The compound's effects on vascular function and thrombus formation are assessed. Sample sizes typically range from 6-10 animals per group. The compound reached Phase 2 clinical development.

Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No comprehensive toxicology data are publicly available for Dazoxiben HCl.

As a thromboxane synthase inhibitor, potential toxicities may include effects on platelet function and bleeding risk. Standard toxicity studies would include acute toxicity assessment in rodents, repeated dose toxicity studies (14-day and 28-day), and genotoxicity screening (Ames test, micronucleus assay). The compound is for research use only and not for human therapeutic use.
