Biochem/physiol Actions

Arimoclomol is an orally available, CNS-penetrant coinducer of heat shock proteins (HSPs), notably HSP70, that exhibits in vivo efficay in disease models of diabetes, Gaucher disease (GD), sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM), and neurological disorders, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Niemann-Pick disease type C1 (NPC1). Note: arimoclomol maleate and citrate salt forms are known as BRX-220 and BRX-345, respectively.

In this study, we examined the effect BRX-220, a co-inducer of heat shock proteins, in injury-induced peripheral neuropathy. Following sciatic nerve injury in adult rats and treatment with BRX-220, the following features of the sensory system were studied: (a) expression

Bimoclomol (BML), a symptomatic antidiabetic agent, has been developed by Biorex R & D Co. to treat diabetic neuropathy and retinopathy. BRX-220, an orally active member of the BRX family, has been developed to treat diabetic complications and insulin resistance

Gaucher Disease is caused by mutations of the GBA gene which encodes the lysosomal enzyme acid beta-glucosidase (GCase). GBA mutations commonly affect GCase function by perturbing its protein homeostasis rather than its catalytic activity. Heat shock proteins are well known
