BB-Cl-amidine is an irreversible pan-protein-arginine deiminase (PAD) inhibitor (kinact/KI in M-1min-1 = 16100/PAD1, 4100/PAD2, 6800/PAD3, 13300/PAD4) with >20-fold increased potency against U2OS osteosarcoma cutlures (viability assay IC50 = 8.8 μM vs >200 μM with Cl-amidine) and longer in vivo half-life (1.75 hrs vs 15 min for Cl-amidine in plasma post injection in mice) than Cl-amidine. BB-Cl-amidine effectively inhibits PMA-induced neutrophils extracellular trap (NET) formation from lupus-prone MRL/lpr mice-derived bone marrow neutrophils in cultures (by 78% and 34% with 20 μM BB-Cl-amidine or Cl-amidine, respectively), while daily s.c. injection (1 mg/kg) is efficacious in ameliorating lupus symptoms in in MRL/lpr mice in vivo.
Irreversible pan-protein-arginine deiminase (PAD) inhibitor with >10-fold increased potency than Cl-amidine both in vitro and in vivo.

Peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is a nuclear enzyme that converts arginine residues to citrulline. Although increasingly implicated in inflammatory disease and cancer, the mechanism of action of PAD4 and its functionally relevant pathways remains unclear. E2F transcription factors are

Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) are a hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and are routinely used for disease diagnosis. Protein citrullination is also increased in cancer and other autoimmune disorders, suggesting that citrullinated proteins may serve as biomarkers for diseases beyond
