TPCA-1 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

TPCA-1 (507475-17-4) selective inhibitor of IκB kinase 2 (IKK2) (IC50 = 17.9 nM).1 Inhibits production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in arthritis and other animal models of inflammation.1,2 Also attenuates NLRP3 inflammasome activation in THP-1 myeloid cells, and suppresses IL1β-induced proliferation, migration, and invasion of HeLa cells.3,4 Continuous exposure to TPCA-1 promotes expansion of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) via improved glycolysis and limited ROS production.5

Uses

TPCA-1 is a direct dual inhibitor for both IKKβ (IKK-2) and STAT3. It inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation, DNA binding, and transactivation in vivo. Synergistic treatment of TPCA-1 with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) can potentially be a more effective method for treating cancers.

Definition

ChEBI: 2-(carbamoylamino)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-thiophenecarboxamide is a member of thiophenes and an aromatic amide.

Biological Activity

Potent, selective inhibitor of I κ B kinase-2 (IKK-2) (IC 50 = 17.9 nM) that displays > 22-fold selectivity over IKK-1 and > 550-fold selectivity over other kinases and enzymes. Inhibits production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in vitro and in vivo and inhibits NF- κ B nuclear localisation. Reduces the severity and onset of collagen-induced arthritis; anti-inflammatory.

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.

in vitro

determination of the activity of tpca-1 against ten selected kinases, cox-1 and cox-2, showed the compound to be ~550-fold selective for ikk-2 versus ten of these enzymes. tpca-1 inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced human monocyte production of tnf-α, il-6, and il-8 with an ic50 of 170 to 320 nm [1].

in vivo

prophylactic administration of tpca-1 at 3, 10, or 20 mg/kg resulted in a dose dependent reduction in the severity of murine collagen-induced arthritis. the significantly reduced disease severity and delay of disease onset resulting from administration of tpca-1 at 10 mg/kg were comparable to the effects of the antirheumatic drug, etanercept [1].

storage

Store at -20°C
