PXS 25 is a cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-M6PR) inhibitor that inhibits CI-M6PR-mediated activation of latent TGF-β1. PXS 25 inhibits conversion of high glucose-induced latent TGF-β1 to active TGF-β1 in proximal tubule cells under normoxic conditions. PXS 25 suppresses high glucose-induced fibronectin, collagen IV production, and phosphorylated Smad 2 in proximal tubule cells under normoxic conditions. PXS 25 has antifibrotic properties in skin fibroblasts. PXS 25 can be used for the research of diabetic nephropathy.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
