Biological Activity

Voxelotor is a novel, orally active hemoglobin S (HbS) modifier that increases hemoglobin oxygen affinity. By binding to the N-terminal alpha-chain of hemoglobin, it stabilizes the oxygenated hemoglobin conformation and directly inhibits hypoxia-induced HbS polymerization. Consequently, voxelotor reduces red blood cell sickling, improves erythrocyte deformability, and prevents membrane damage and hemolysis, offering protective cellular effects against sickle cell disease pathology.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
