Description

Application

UCF-101 has been used to study its cytoprotective activity in a mouse model of spinal cord injury.[1]

Biochem/physiol Actions

UCF-101 is a selective inhibitor of the pro-apoptotic mitochondrial serine protease Omi/HtrA2, involved in the cellular response to thermal and oxidative stress. Like SMAC/Diablo, Omi/HtrA2 is an inhibitor of IAPs (inhibitor of apoptosis proteins), inhibiting the apoptosis inhibitors, thus resulting in pro-apoptotic activity. In septic rat studies, UCF-101 was found to inhibit apoptosis and have neuroprotective effects on cerebral oxidative injury and cognitive impairment. In aging rats with induced myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury, UCF-101 treatment decreased XIAP degradation and caspase-3 activity and exerted cardioprotective effects.
