Netarsudil (AR-13324) is a competitive inhibitor of Rho-associated protein kinases (ROCK I and ROCK II) and a reversible inhibitor of the norepinephrine transporter (NET). Netarsudil reduces intraocular pressure by inhibiting ROCK, causing relaxation of trabecular meshwork cells and dilation of episcleral veins, thereby increasing the ease of aqueous humor outflow, while inhibiting NET to reduce aqueous humor production. Netarsudil is mainly used in the study of ocular hypertension and primary open-angle glaucoma.

Description

Netarsudil (AR-13324) is a competitive inhibitor of Rho-associated protein kinases (ROCK I and ROCK II) and a reversible inhibitor of the norepinephrine transporter (NET). Netarsudil reduces intraocular pressure by inhibiting ROCK, causing relaxation of trabecular meshwork cells and dilation of episcleral veins, thereby increasing the ease of aqueous humor outflow, while inhibiting NET to reduce aqueous humor production. Netarsudil is mainly used in the study of ocular hypertension and primary open-angle glaucoma[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Netarsudil exerts its effects by metabolizing to the active compound Netarsudil-M1. Netarsudil-M1 (0.3 μM; 3 h) significantly increases aqueous humor outflow ease in human ocular tissue perfusion experiments and increases effective filtration length (PEFL) by dilating the trabecular meshwork (TM) and episcleral veins (ESV)[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Immunofluorescence[1]

Cell Line: Human trabecular meshwork cells
Concentration: 0.3 μM Netarsudil-M1
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Reduced formation of actin stress fibers and focal adhesions, accompanied by cell rounding and detachment, indicative of relaxed cell contractility.
Decreased phosphorylation of myosin light chain (MLC), a marker of ROCK-mediated contraction, confirming inhibition of the Rho-kinase pathway.
In Vivo

Netarsudil (0.04% ophthalmic solution; topical instillation; single dose) increases aqueous humor outflow ease and reduces aqueous humor production after 6 hours of treatment in female cynomolgus monkeys, exerting an ocular hypotensive effect[2].
Netarsudil (0.04% eye drops; topical instillation; once daily; 3 days) significantly reduces intraocular pressure and episcleral venous pressure in male Dutch DB rabbits without affecting arterial pressure, heart rate, and carotid blood flow[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Male Dutch Belted rabbits (2.15±0.09 kg, male) episcleral venous pressure (EVP) and IOP measurement model[3]
Dosage: 0.04% Netarsudil ophthalmic solution (aqueous solution with 0.015% benzalkonium chloride)
Administration: Topical instillation of 1 drop once daily for 3 days.
Result: Baseline values: IOP 34±4 mmHg, EVP 17±2 mmHg, arterial pressure (AP) 105±3 mmHg, carotid blood flow (BFcar) 35±1 mL/min, heart rate (HR) 337±9 bpm.
Three hours after the final dose, IOP decreased by 39% to 19±2 mmHg, EVP decreased by 35% to 11±1 mmHg.
AP, BFcar, and HR showed no significant changes throughout the experiment, indicating no systemic hemodynamic effects.
Animal Model: Female cynomolgus monkeys (3-5 kg, female, adult) aqueous humor dynamics model[2]
Dosage: 0.04% Netarsudil ophthalmic solution (aqueous formulation).
Administration: Topical instillation of 50 μL (25 μL×2) as a single dose
Result: Six hours post-treatment, outflow facility (C) increased by 53% compared to baseline, from 0.58±0.07 to 0.90±0.11 μL/min/mmHg.
Aqueous humor flow rate (F) decreased by 23% compared to baseline, from 1.60±0.11 to 1.25±0.19 μL/min.
IOP was reduced by 25% compared to baseline, with no significant changes observed in contralateral vehicle-treated eyes.

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
