The reference for FT011 is 200 mg/kg/day [1]. rats are studied for 8 and 32 weeks and receiving intravitreal injections of FT011 (50 μM). FT011 reduces etinal leukostasis, microglial density and mRNA levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). Late intervention with FT011 reducesacellular capillaries and the elevated mRNA levels of collagen IV and fibronectin in diabetic rats. [2]
In Vitro
FT011 do not change glycogen synthase or glycogen phosphorylase enzyme activities but prevent both glycogenin mRNA synthesis and accumulation of Armanni-Ebstein lesions in the diabetic kidney. [1] FT011 inhibit both TGF-β1 and PDGF-BB induced collagen production as well as PDGF-BB-mediated mesangial proliferation. FT011 reduced albuminuria, glomerulosclerosis and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. [3]
