Product Description
SRI-011381 HCl is an orally bioavailable activator of the TGF-β signaling pathway with neuro-protective (neuro-protection) effects. SRI-011381 (also known as C381) is a novel, orally bioavailable agonist of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling pathway . It is being investigated for the treatment of Alzheimer‘s disease and exhibits neuroprotective effects . The compound physically targets the lysosome, promotes lysosomal acidification, increases breakdown of lysosomal cargo, and improves lysosome resilience to damage . SRI-011381 has also been shown to promote the clearance of fibrillar Aβ via macrophages, as evidenced by a dose‑dependent reduction of Aβ in conditioned medium derived from compound‑treated macrophages .
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
TGF-beta[1]; SRI-011381 targets the TGF-β signaling pathway as an agonist . It activates TGF-β/Smad‑dependent signaling by promoting the phosphorylation of Smad2 and Smad3 . The compound also activates the non‑Smad PI3K signaling pathway . In SBE‑luciferase bioluminescent reporter mice, SRI-011381 (30 mg/kg, i.p.) activates TGF‑β signaling in vivo .
ln Vitro
SRI-011381 (10 μM) hydrochloride greatly boosts the expression of TGF-β1, NALP3, collagen-1, and α-SMA while also encouraging the growth of mice lung fibroblasts[1]. In stemness acquisition studies, SRI-011381 promotes sphere formation in NSTCs through the Prrx1/TGF‑β/smad signaling axis . It increases fibronectin expression in NIH‑3T3 cells stimulated by metformin . SRI-011381 (10 μM) abolishes the protective effect of saikosaponin A (SSA, 30 μM) on fibroblasts . In placental trophocytes with TGF‑β1 overexpression, SRI-011381 increases mRNA levels of Smad2 (2.58±0.22 vs. 1.00±0.13), Smad3 (2.27±0.24 vs. 1.00±0.15), and Smad4 (2.04±0.19 vs. 1.00±0.11) while decreasing E‑Cadherin mRNA levels (0.47±0.07 vs. 1.00±0.09) . The compound also enhances TGF‑β1 secretion, promotes angiogenesis through tubule formation assays, and increases migration of HUVECs as demonstrated by Transwell assays .
ln Vivo
The deficiencies in the optic nerve and retina of YAPGFAP-CKO EAE mice are largely restored by SRI-011381 (30 mg/kg; ip; every 2 d; for 22 days) hydrochloride[2].
SRI-011381 (30 mg/kg, i.p.) activates TGF‑β signaling in SBE‑luciferase bioluminescent reporter mice . The compound (7 mg/kg, i.p., 2 weeks) reverses the beneficial effects of internal heat needle therapy in a rotator cuff injury rat model, as evidenced by shortened thermal withdrawal latency, decreased maximum tensile load, reduced expression of Scx and TnC, increased levels of IL‑1β, IL‑6, and TNF‑α, and elevated expression of TGF‑β1 and p‑Smad2/3 . SRI-011381 protects mice from kainic acid‑induced excitotoxicity and neurodegeneration . It reduces neurodegeneration in APP751SL Swedish transgenic mice . In an embryo damage model, SRI-011381 inhibits E‑Cadherin expression via Smad signaling pathway activation .
Enzyme Assay
: Western blot analysis – treated cells are lysed, proteins resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to membranes, and probed with antibodies against TGF‑β1, p‑Smad2, p‑Smad3, and stemness markers (CD133, SOX2) to assess pathway activation . ELISA – cell culture supernatants are collected and analyzed for TGF‑β1 secretion levels using commercial ELISA kits to quantify pathway activation . Sphere formation assay – cells are cultured in ultra‑low attachment plates and the number and size of spheres are quantified to assess stemness acquisition . Tubule formation assay – HUVECs are plated on Matrigel and capillary‑like tube structures are visualized and quantified to assess angiogenesis .
Cell Assay
Sphere formation assay – cells (NSTCs or GSCs) are treated with SRI-011381 and cultured under stemness‑promoting conditions; the number and size of spheres formed are quantified to evaluate the effect on stemness acquisition . Tubule formation assay – HUVECs are treated with conditioned medium from NSTCs or GSCs stimulated with SRI-011381 and plated on Matrigel; capillary‑like tube structures are visualized microscopically and quantified by measuring tube length and branch points . Transwell migration assay – HUVECs are seeded in the upper chamber of a Transwell insert, and conditioned medium from compound‑treated NSTCs or GSCs is placed in the lower chamber; after incubation, migrated cells on the lower surface of the membrane are stained and counted . Western blot analysis – treated cells are lysed in RIPA buffer, proteins separated by SDS‑PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and probed with antibodies against TGF‑β1, p‑Smad2, p‑Smad3, Smad2, Smad3, CD133, and SOX2 to assess protein expression changes . ELISA – cell culture supernatants are collected and analyzed for TGF‑β1 secretion levels using commercial ELISA kits according to the manufacturer‘s protocol . Gene expression analysis (qPCR) – total RNA is extracted from treated cells, reverse transcribed to cDNA, and subjected to fluorescence quantitative PCR for detection of Smad2, Smad3, Smad4, PI3K, and E‑Cadherin mRNA levels .
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: YAPGFAP-CKO mice bearing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE)[2]
Doses: 30 mg/kg

Rotator cuff injury model in SD rats – Male SPF SD rats (8 weeks old, 200±20 g) are anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium. The supraspinatus tendon insertion at the greater tuberosity is exposed and transected approximately halfway to induce rotator cuff injury. SRI-011381 is administered intraperitoneally at 7 mg/kg for 2 weeks (once weekly). Therapeutic outcomes are assessed by thermal withdrawal latency (TWL), inflammatory cytokine levels (IL‑1β, IL‑6, TNF‑α) via ELISA, histopathological examination (HE staining), collagen fiber assessment (Masson staining), maximum tensile load biomechanical testing, and immunohistochemical staining of Scx and TnC .
