Kartogenin (KGN) sodium acts as an inducer of chondrogenic tissue formation (EC 50: 100 nM). It promotes chondrogenesis by binding to fibrin A, disrupting its interaction with the transcription factor core binding factor beta subunit (CBFβ), and modulating the CBFβ-RUNX1 transcriptional program. Additionally, Kartogenin sodium aids tendon-bone junction (TBJ) wound healing by stimulating collagen synthesis. It is extensively utilized in cell-free therapies for cartilage regeneration and protection, tendon-bone healing, wound healing, and limb development. The compound is also vital for cartilage repair, coordinating limb development, and osteoarthritis (OA) research [1] [2] [3] [4].

In vitro | Kartogenin sodium (100 nM; 72 h) induces the formation of chondrocyte aggregates in primary hMSCs [1]. At concentrations ranging from 10 nM to 10 μM over 72 hours, it increases the expression of chondrocyte-specific genes in hMSCs [1]. Kartogenin sodium (0.12-10 μM; 48 h) inhibits cytokine-induced nitric oxide (NO) and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) release in primary bovine articular chondrocytes [1]. Additionally, concentrations of 50 to 5000 nM over a period of 2 weeks induce chondrogenic differentiation in BMSCs in a dose-dependent manner [2]. |
In vivo | Kartogenin sodium (10 μM, dissolved in 4 μL saline; administered on day 7 and day 21) enhances cartilage repair in a collagenase VII-induced mouse model of osteoarthritis [1]. |
