A small molecule HIF-1α stabilizer that accelerates diabetic wound healing
7 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
Impaired wound healing and ulcer complications are a leading cause of death in diabetic patients. In this study, we report the design and synthesis of a cyclometalated iridium(III) metal complex 1a as a stabilizer of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). In vitro biophysical and cellular analyses demonstrate that this compound binds to Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) and inhibits the VHL-HIF-1α interaction. Furthermore,...
