CAS#: 3200-06-4 (oxalate)

Description: Naftidrofuryl (INN), also known as nafronyl or as the oxalate salt naftidrofuryl oxalate or nafronyl oxalate, is a vasodilator used in the management of peripheral and cerebral vascular disorders. It is also claimed to enhance cellular oxidative capacity. The drug act as a selective antagonist of 5-HT2 receptors (with action as an inverse agonist of the 5-HT2A receptor specifically characterized).Naftidrofuryl is also licensed for the treatment of intermittent claudication due to peripheral arterial disease.

Product Data:
Biological target: Naftidrofuryl oxalate (Nafronyl oxalate salt) is a drug used in the management of peripheral and cerebral vascular disorders as a vasodilator, enhance cellular oxidative capacity, and may also be a 5-HT2 receptor antagonist.
In vitro activity: Naf (Naftidrofuryl oxalate) inhibited ET-1-mediated detrusor contractions significantly (P<0.04), e.g. at 10(-10) M ET-1, contraction was completely abolished by Naf. Autoradiography indicated that Naf competitively inhibited [(125)I]ET-1 binding in a dose-dependent manner (IC(50)=3x10(-7) M). All radioligand binding was reduced indicating binding of Naf to both ET(A) and ET(B) receptors. Reference: Clin Sci (Lond). 2002 Aug;103 Suppl 48:459S-463S. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12193145/
In vivo activity: This study aimed to assess the possible protective effects of naftidrofuryl (Naf) against methotrexate (MTX)-induced testicular toxicity in rats. Male rats were randomly distributed into four groups: control, Naf, MTX, and MTX+Naf groups. Naf pretreatment significantly decreased malondialdehyde and interleukin-6 contents, microRNA-29a (miRNA-29a) expression level, and nuclear factor kappa B and p53 immunostaining in the testicular tissues compared to the MTX group.
