SB-225002 is a potent nonpeptide inhibitor of chemokine receptor CXCR2 with an IC50 of 22 nM for inhibiting interleukin IL-8 binding to CXCR2 and > 150-fold selectivity over CXCR1 receptors. CXCR2 binds many different immune cell chemoattractants. SB-225002 is crucial for cancer progression and is involved in inflammatory diseases like COPD, rheumatoid arthritis, and ulcerative colitis.
SB-225002 is a potent nonpeptide inhibitor of chemokine receptor CXCR2.
Blocking action of SB-225002 on CXCR2 (interleukin 8 receptor β), prevents the IL-8 induced matrix metalloproteinase-9 release from neutrophils. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 are proteolytic enzymes associated with inflammation.
