A potent inhibitor of IKKs
IC50: 200, 40, and 70 nM for IKKα, IKKβ, and IKK complex, respectively.
IKK-16 is an IκB kinases (IKKs) inhibitor.
The IκB kinase (IKK), part of a high molecular weight protein complex consisting of three subunits, IKK1, IKK2, and IKKc, emerged as a prime target for the development of novel anti-rheumatic and anti-inflammatory drugs.
In vitro: In screening study, it was found that compounds with an additional basic amino group were more active than the neutral inhibitors. The tertiary amines, such as IKK-16, was active in the low-nanomolar range. IKK-16 could inhibit TNFa-induced adhesion molecule expression in a potency range similar to the IjBa degradation. Although IKK-16 showed activity in the IFNc-induced expression of b2 microglobulin, its potency was weaker. These data demonstrated that IKK-16 had an effect on downstream gene expression, however, on the cellular level the selectivity was modest [1].
In vivo: Animal study found that the treatment with IKK 16 to mice could attenuate the impairment in systolic contractility, renal dysfunction, hepatocellular injury and lung inflammation in LPS/PepG-induced MOD and in polymicrobial sepsis. IKK-16 treatment could also significantly attenuated the increase in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression and increase the phosphorylation of Akt and endothelial nitric oxide synthase [2].
Clinical trial: So far, no clinical study has been conducted.
