Application

TPCA-1 has been used to study its cytotoxic effects in RPMI8226 and LP1 cell lines. It has also been used as a culture media supplement for nuclear protein fractions extracted from human airway smooth muscle cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

TPCA-1 is a potent and selective inhibitor of human IκB kinase-2 (IKK-2) with IC50 = 17.9 nM for IKK-2 compared to 400nm for IKK-1. It has been used to study inhibition of IKK-2 to prevent inflammatory mediator release in animal models of arthritis and airway inflammation.

Demonstration that IkappaB kinase 2 (IKK-2) plays a pivotal role in the nuclear factor-kappaB-regulated production of proinflammatory molecules by stimuli such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL)-1 suggests that inhibition of IKK-2 may be beneficial in the treatment

Clinical and experimental evidence indicates that macrophages could promote solid-tumor progression and metastasis. However, the mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Here we show that yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1), a transcriptional regulator that controls tissue growth and regeneration, has an

Induction of interferon beta (IFN-β), IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), and inflammatory responses is critical for control of viral infection. We recently identified an essential linkage of stimulation of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and induction of ISGs that function as host

Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) is a proinflammatory cytokine that elicits its action by binding to two cell surface TNF receptors (TNFR), TNFR1 and TNFR2, which are expressed by many different cell types. Stimulation of TNFR1 activates canonical NF-κB signaling, leading
