RESEARCH-USE BIOSIMILAR ANTIBODY
Simtuzumab
Monoclonal antibody · IgG4
Simtuzumab (AB 0024; GS 6624) is a monoclonal antibody directed against Lysyl oxidase like-2 (LOXL2). Simtuzumab non-competitively blocks collagen cross-linking, reduces LOXL2 protein expression and attenuates extracellular matrix changes. Simtuzumab reduces myocardial fibrosis and prevents cardiac dysfunction. Simtuzumab lowers Myh7 and Nppa gene expression, reduces contraction heterogeneity, and cuts COL1A1 deposition. Simtuzumab can be used for the research of LMNA mutation-induced dilated cardiomyopathy, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and primary sclerosing cholangitis.
