| Description: |
TAK-242 (Resatorvid), a small-molecule-specific inhibitor of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 signaling, inhibits the production of lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory mediators by binding to the intracellular domain of TLR4.
IC50 value: 1.1-11 nM
Target: TLR4
in vitro: In RAW264.7 cells and mouse peritoneal macrophages, TAK-242 suppressed lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced production of NO, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and interleukin (IL)-6, with 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 1.1 to 11 nM. TAK-242 also suppressed the production of these cytokines from LPS-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) at IC50 values from 11 to 33 nM. In addition, the inhibitory effects on the LPS-induced IL-6 and IL-12 production were similar in human PBMCs, monocytes, and macrophages. TAK-242 inhibited mRNA expression of IL-6 and TNF-alpha induced by LPS and interferon-gamma in RAW264.7 cells . TAK-242 selectively bound to TLR4. The time course of the inhibitory effect of TAK-242 on inflammatory mediator production corresponded to that of the binding of TAK-242 to TLR4. TAK-242 inhibited the association of TLR4 with Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adaptor protein (TIRAP) or Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adaptor protein inducing interferon-β-related adaptor molecule (TRAM) in human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells overexpressing TLR4, MD-2, and TIRAP or TRAM, respectively .
in vivo: To evaluate the effect of blocking TLR4 on visceral nociception, TAK-242, a selective TLR4 antagonist, was administered peripherally (intravenous) and centrally (intracerebroventricular and intra-PFC) (n = 10-12/experimental group) . Intravenous administration of TAK-242 to mice 1 h be Fore LPS challenge dose-dependently inhibited LPS-induced increases in serum levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-10, MIP-2, and NO metabolites. TAK-242 protected mice from LPS-induced lethality in a similar dose-dependent manner, and rescued 100% of mice at a dose of 1 mg/kg. Interestingly, TAK-242 worked quickly, and showed beneficial effects even when administered after LPS challenge .For the detailed information of TAK-242 (Resatorvid), the solubility of TAK-242 (Resatorvid) in water, the solubility of TAK-242 (Resatorvid) in DMSO, the solubility of TAK-242 (Resatorvid) in PBS buffer, the animal experiment (test) of TAK-242 (Resatorvid), the cell expriment (test) of TAK-242 (Resatorvid), the in vivo, in vitro and clinical trial test of TAK-242 (Resatorvid), the EC50, IC50,and Affinity of TAK-242 (Resatorvid), Please contact DC Chemicals. |
