详情描述
AR7 is a retinoic acid receptor α (RARα) antagonist. AR7 is a specific and potent RARα antagonist (IC50 < 100 nM) to stimulate Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA).It is a synthetic derivative of all-trans-retinoic acid developed through the structure-based chemical design. CMA contributes to cellular quality control and the cellular response to stress through the selective degradation of cytosolic proteins in lysosomes. A decrease in CMA activity occurs in aging and in age-related disorders (for example, neurodegenerative diseases and diabetes). AR7 working as a chemical enhancement of CMA protects cells from oxidative stress and from proteotoxicity, and supports a potential therapeutic opportunity when reduced CMA contributes to cellular dysfunction and disease. AR7 is the first chemical compound that affects CMA has the selectivity for this pathway without affecting macroautophagy.
