Zelasudil
|
Zelasudil is a Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase (ROCK) inhibitor with a specific binding affinity for ROCK2, a key enzyme in the Rho/ROCK signaling pathway. This pathway plays a critical role in regulating cellular processes such as cytoskeletal organization, cell motility, smooth muscle contraction, and gene expression. By selectively inhibiting ROCK2, Zelasudil modulates these processes, offering therapeutic potential for a variety of diseases characterized by fibrosis, inflammation, and vascular dysfunction, including pulmonary fibrosis, glaucoma, and cardiovascular diseases. |
