Application

Tyrphostin AG 126 has been used in LOPAC screening assays to identify histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Tyrphostin AG 126 is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is known to block the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and nitric oxide in macrophages. Furthermore, studies have reported that AG 126 can reduce zymosan-induced multiple organ failure in rats, block the postoperative ileus development in mice, and also decrease colitis development in rats.

We recently reported that lasting activation of mouse microglial cells with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) chronically elevated the basal intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i). This correlated to an attenuated calcium signaling of complement (C5a) and purinergic (UTP) receptors as well as to

Benzylidenemalononitrile (BMN) tyrphostins are well known as potent tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Moreover, in recent years it has been recognized that members of the tyrphostin family possess additional biological activities independent of their ability to inhibit protein tyrosine kinases. In this

The release of IL-1beta as an active, mature cytokine requires proteolytic processing by caspase-1, which is recruited to signaling complexes that facilitate its autocatalytic proteolysis and activation. Caspase-1 processing has been characterized in human monocyte and murine macrophage model systems

Inflammatory bowel disease is characterized by oxidative and nitrosative stress, leukocyte infiltration, up-regulation of the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and up-regulation of P-selectin in the colon. Here we investigate the effects of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor, Tyrphostin AG
