General description

PD 169316 is a pyridinyl imidazole compound. It is a potential inhibitor of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases. It also inhibits signalling transforming growth factor β (TGFβ), particularly in human ovarian cancer cells.

Application

PD 169316 has been used for the inhibition of p38 enzyme in human hepatocytes. It has been used in culture media to promote embryoid bodies differentiation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Potent, cell-permeable and selective p38 MAP kinase inhibitor (IC50 = 89 nM).
