General description

A cell-permeable ureidocarboxamido thiophene compound that acts as a potent, reversible, and ATP-competitive inhibitor of IKK-2 (IC50 = 18 nM) with selectivity over IKK-1, JNK and p38 MAPK. Inhibits TNF-α production in human monocytes (IC50 in the range of 0.15-2.5 µM) and blocks IL-8 and IL-6 production by synovial fibroblasts (IC50 = 100 nM). Further reduces paw oedema in rat arthritis model (~100% inhibition at a dose of 30 mg per kg). A 10 mM (500 µg/179 µl) solution of IKK-2 Inhibitor IV (Cat. No. 401484) in DMSO is available.

In TNF signaling, ubiquitination of RIP1 functions as an early cell-death checkpoint, which prevents the spatial transition of the signaling complex from complex-I to death-inducing complex-II. Here, we report that ankyrin repeat domain 13a (ANKRD13a) acts as a novel component

In tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling, phosphorylation and activation of receptor interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) by upstream kinases is an essential checkpoint in the suppression of TNF-induced cell death. Thus, discovery of pharmacological agents targeting RIPK1 may provide new
