A cell-permeable, reversible, and ATP-competitive cytokine-suppressive anti-inflammatory drug (CSAID). A bicyclic imidazole that inhibits lipolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated human monocyte IL-1 and TNF-α production (IC50 = 1 µM). Also acts as an inhibitor of both cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase. SKF-86002 also acts as a specific p38 MAP kinase inhibitor.
