NF-κB p65 subunit (RelA) DNA-binding inhibitor that effectively blocks influenza virus propagation both in cultures and in mice in vivo.
SC75741 (4SC-301; V1810) is a potent NF-kappaB (NF-κB) inhibitor (IC50 = 200 nM against 10 ng/mL TNF-α-induced NF-κB reporter gene expression in A549 cells) that impairs p65 subunit (RelA) DNA-binding activity without affecting p65 phosphorylation or nuclear translocation, nor proteasome-mediated IκBα degradation. SC75741 induces apoptosis in multiple myeloma cultures (IC50 from 5 to 12 μM in 48 hrs; OPM2, U266, NCI-H929, RPMI-8226), but not PBMCs (89% viability post 4-hr 100 μM SC75741 treatment). NF-κB inhibition by SC75741 treatment is reported to effectively block influenza virus propagation both in cultures in vitro (1-5 μM) and in mice in vivo (5 mg/kg daily i.v. or 7.5-15 mg/kg twice a day i.p.).

Evidence is increasing that aberrant NF-kappaB activation is crucial for multiple myeloma pathophysiology and a promising target for new antimyeloma therapies. In this study, we assessed the in vitro antimyeloma activity of the novel NF-kappaB inhibitor V1810. Pharmacokinetics and toxicity
Millepachine (MIL) was a novel chalcone that was separated from Millettia pachycarpa Benth (Leguminosae). We found MIL induced apoptosis through activating NF-κB pathway both in SK-OV-3 and A2780S cells. Western blot showed that MIL increased the levels of IKKα, p-IKKα/β

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the bioactive polyphenol in green tea, has been demonstrated to have various biological activities. Our study aims to investigate the antiproliferation and antimigration effects of EGCG against bladder cancer SW780 cells both in vitro and in vivo. Our
Ongoing human infections with highly pathogenic avian H5N1 viruses and the emergence of the pandemic swine-origin influenza viruses (IV) highlight the permanent threat elicited by these pathogens. Occurrence of resistant seasonal and pandemic strains against the currently licensed antiviral medications

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was revealed to inhibit aortic valve calcification and inflammation was implicated in the pathogenesis of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). We investigate whether H2S inhibits mineralization via abolishing inflammation. Expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor
