pKi: 8.4 (Lysyl Oxidase-like 2) and 5.8 (Lysyl Oxidase-like); Ki: 83 nM (Lysyl Oxidase-like 2)[1]
LOXL2 (lysyl oxidase-like 2) and LOXL3 (lysyl oxidase-like 3); also inhibits LOXL4 to a moderate extent. |

| ln Vitro |
Compound 12k, or PXS-5120A, is a moderate blocker of LOXL4 and a strong inhibitor of LOXL2/3. With IC50s of 5 nM, 9 nM, 6 nM, 6 nM, 13 nM, 16 nM, and 280 nM, respectively, PXS-5120A inhibits recombinant human LOXL2, human fibroblast LOXL2, recombinant mouse LOXL2, recombinant rat LOXL2, collagen oxidation assay, recombinant human LOXL3, and recombinant human LOXL4.
PXS-5120A is a potent inhibitor of LOXL2 with a Ki of 83 nM and a pIC50 of 8.4. It is >300-fold selective for LOXL2 over LOX (pIC50 = 5.8). It also shows potent inhibition of LOXL3, an emerging therapeutic target for lung fibrosis. This high selectivity and potency make it a valuable tool for studying LOXL2/3-specific functions. |
| ln Vivo |
PXS-5129A is quickly absorbed after oral gavage, quickly hydrolyzes once in the bloodstream to release PXS-5120 (free base), and provides plasma concentrations in mice that are significantly higher than the LOXL2 IC50 (6 nM) for an extended length of time (>6 h), all the while staying well below the IC50 for LOX[1].
As a potent and selective LOXL2/3 inhibitor, PXS-5120A is used in in vivo models to study the role of these enzymes in fibrosis. Its anti-fibrotic activity has been demonstrated, making it a promising candidate for the treatment of fibrotic diseases such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays are performed to characterize the inhibitory activity of PXS-5120A against LOXL2, LOXL3, and LOX. The enzymes are incubated with their substrates and varying concentrations of the compound. The inhibition of enzyme activity is measured, and Ki or IC50 values are calculated from the data. The selectivity profile is determined by comparing the compound's activity against different LOX family members.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cells expressing LOXL2 or LOXL3 (e.g., fibroblasts) are treated with PXS-5120A to assess its cellular effects. The compound's ability to inhibit LOX activity and collagen crosslinking in cells is measured. Its effects on cell signaling, migration, and extracellular matrix production are also evaluated to understand its anti-fibrotic mechanism.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies are conducted in animal models of fibrosis, such as the bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis model, to evaluate the therapeutic potential of PXS-5120A. The compound is typically administered via oral or parenteral routes. Its effects on collagen deposition, tissue architecture, and functional outcomes are assessed.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No detailed pharmacokinetic data are publicly available for PXS-5120A. As a potent and selective inhibitor with anti-fibrotic activity, its ADME properties would be studied to support in vivo efficacy studies. Its oral bioavailability and tissue distribution are key parameters for its development.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data are publicly available. As an irreversible LOXL2/3 inhibitor, its toxicity profile would be evaluated in standard preclinical studies. On-target toxicity related to the essential role of LOX family enzymes in connective tissue maintenance is a potential concern that would be carefully assessed.

| Additional Infomation |
PXS-5120A is a highly selective and potent LOXL2/3 inhibitor with significant anti-fibrotic potential. Its discovery represents a major advance in the development of targeted therapies for fibrotic diseases. It is not approved for clinical use and is currently a research tool. Its high selectivity over LOX is a key feature that may reduce on-target side effects.
