Application

Nelfinavir mesylate hydrate has been used to test its therapeutic effect on pulmonary fibrosis in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). It has also been used in combination with bortezomib to selectively kill tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2)-deficient tumor cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nelfinavir mesylate hydrate, also known as AG1343, is used as a therapeutic agent for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). It acts as an antifibrotic agent and is used to treat pulmonary fibrosis in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). In addition, nelfinavir mesylate hydrate reduces inflammation by activating protein phosphatase 2 (PP-2) and blocking mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signaling in macrophages. It also stimulate autophagy and exhibit anti-cancer property.
Nelfinavir is a HIV protease inhibitor; antiretroviral; and anti-tumor agent.
