Application
YC-1 has been used as a hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) inhibitor:
- to reduce hypoxia induced Jagged1 expression in cardiomyocytes (CMs)
- to study its effect on progenitor expansion and CD34+ and side population (SP) cell phenotype and on the proliferation rate of cells with an ability to form long term colony forming units
- to study its effect on regulating sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) bound to albumin induced plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) expression by activating Rho/ Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) pathway.
Biochem/physiol Actions
NO (nitric oxide)-independent activator of soluble guanylyl cyclase.
YC-1 activates soluble guanylyl cyclase and prevents platelet aggregation and vascular contraction. It has a potential to treat circulation disorders. YC-1 also has an ability to inhibit hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) activity in vitro. It acts as a potential antiangiogenic anticancer agent.

YC-1 [3-(5'-hydroxymethyl-2'-furyl)-1-benzylindazole] inhibited the aggregation of and ATP release from washed rabbit platelets induced by arachidonic acid (AA), collagen, U46619, platelet-activating factor (PAF), and thrombin in a concentration-dependent manner. YC-1 also disaggregated the clumped platelets caused by these inducers. The

Because pulmonary circulation is the primary vascular target of inhaled particulate matter (PM), and nitric oxide is a major vasculoprotective agent, in this study we investigated the effect of various particles on the NO-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway in pulmonary
