Upacicalcet (sodium)

Upacicalcet sodium is a non-peptide calcimimetic that acts as a CaSR agonist (EC50 = 10.8 nM) . Upacicalcet sodium reduces serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and serum Ca2+ levels, reducing hypocalcemia and gastrointestinal complications. Upacicalcet sodium sodium improves vascular calcification and bone disorders in the Adenine (HY-B0152) -induced secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) rat model. Upacicalcet sodium sodium inhibits cortical pore formation and reduces bone fibrosis in rats with chronic kidney disease (CKD) . Upacicalcet sodium is useful for studying SHPT[1][2].
