How Razuprotafib works
Razuprotafib inhibits VE-PTP (a negative regulator of Tie2 in diseased blood vessels) by binding and inhibiting the intracellular catalytic domain of VE-PTP that inactivates Tie2. This in turn allows razuprotafib to restore Tie2 activation to allow for enhancement of endothelial function and stabilization of blood vessels. Razuprotafib is being investigated against diabetic vascular complications and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in COVID-19.
