Rho kinase inhibitors: a patent review (2014 - 2016).
The Rho-kinases (ROCK), ROCK1 and ROCK2, are potent, widespread biochemical modulators which have been extensively studied. Due to the involvement of ROCKs in multiple biological processes, ROCK inhibitors have pleiotropic actions and may be of relevance for a number of therapeutic applications. The drawback is however that their use might be limited by occurrence of side effects. Areas covered: Since the publication of the latest review in 2014, there have been significant advances in the field of ROCK inhibitors. In this paper we reviewed the patents published between September 2013 and September 2016. Recent novel molecules will be described. and progress from the compounds series described in the previous review as well as any new expected therapeutic uses for ROCK inhibitors that popped up in the last three years will be examined. Expert opinion: While a number of potential applications in human for ROCK inhibitors have been reported, very few molecules are currently available to patients. In addition to fasudil, ripasudil (K-115, Kowa) was only recently approved in Japan for the treatment of glaucoma (2014). Notwithstanding some failures and subsequent discontinuation, the Pipeline of preclinical and clinical ROCK inhibitors remains significant.

Role of Rho Kinase in Regulating Arterial Stiffness in Anesthetized Rabbits.
The effects of Rho kinase inhibitors fasudil and ripasudil on arterial stiffness were assessed using anesthetized rabbits, where the aortic β and femoral β were measured as a stiffness parameter at each arterial region. Intravenous administration of fasudil and ripasudil dose-dependently decreased blood pressure and femoral vascular resistance and increased femoral arterial blood flow, which appeared according to their in vitro potencies for Rho kinase inhibition. Both drugs increased the aortic β but decreased the femoral β at hypotensive doses. These results suggest that the inhibition of Rho kinase contributes to reducing elastic recoil in the aorta and an increase in compliance in the femoral artery. In addition, the Rho kinase-associated Ca Topics: Animals; Isoquinolines; Rabbits; rho-Associated Kinases; Vascular Stiffness | 2023 |
A Close Look at the Clinical Efficacy of Rho-Associated Protein Kinase Inhibitor Eye Drops for Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy.
The current understanding on the clinical efficacy of Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor for treating Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy is summarized to clarify whether the "off-label" ROCK-inhibitor eye-drop application are appropriate. ROCK-inhibitor eye drops may eventually be deemed a cutting-edge therapy for Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy patients with acute corneal endothelial defect.
