Prostetin is an orally available, blood-brain barrier-penetrant, potent and metabolically stable inhibitor of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase (MAP4K, or HGK) that exhibits neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties. Prostetin is more potent than URMC-099 in motor neuron survival assay. Prostetin rescues CPA-induced neurodegeneration in motor neurons.

Disease-causing mutations in many neurodegenerative disorders lead to proteinopathies that trigger endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. However, few therapeutic options exist for patients with these diseases. Using an in vitro screening platform to identify compounds that protect human motor neurons from ER
