Ranirestat (AS-3201; SX-3201) is a novel, oral and potent aldose reductase inhibitor with the potential for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. It inhibits aldose reductase (AR) with IC50s of 11 nM and 15 nM for rat lens AR and recombinant human AR, respectively, and a Ki of 0.38 nM for recombinant human AR. Ranirestat also has a neuroprotective effect on diabetic retinas. Aldose reductase is an enzyme that catalyzes one of the steps in sorbitol (polyol) pathway which is responsible for formation of fructose from glucose. Aldose reductase activity is increased, parallel to glucose blood levels, in tissues that are not insulin sensitive, including lenses, peripheral nerves and renal glomeruli. Sorbitol does not diffuse through cell membranes easily and therefore accumulates in these tissues, causing osmotic damage, leading to retinopathy and neuropathy.
| ln Vitro |
When large doses (500 mg/dl) of glucose are added to rat erythrocytes and sciatic nerves, ranirestat concentration-dependently prevents sorbitol formation. With IC50 values of 0.010 μM and 0.041 μM, respectively, ranirestat has a similar inhibitory impact on sorbitol buildup in rat erythrocytes and sciatic nerve [1].

| ln Vivo |
In male STD-Wistar rats, ranirestat (0.03-1.0 mg/kg; oral; once daily; for three weeks) lowers high levels of fructose and sorbitol in the sciatic nerves of rats in a dose-dependent manner without changing blood glucose levels. Additionally, ranirestat dose-dependently reduces the reductions in motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) brought on by STZ [1].
|
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male STD-Wistar rats (12 weeks old; 260-290 g) were injected with streptozotocin (STZ) [1]
Doses: 0.03 mg/kg, 0.1 mg/kg, 0.3 mg/kg, 1 mg /kg Route of Administration: Oral; one time/day; for 3 weeks Experimental Results: Dose-dependently diminished elevated sorbitol and fructose levels in rat sciatic nerve without affecting blood glucose levels. |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.95 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.95 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
