TH1020 is a novel Toll-Like Receptor 5 (TLR5)/Flagellin Complex Inhibitor with promising activity (IC50 =0.85±0.12?μm) and specificity. TH1020 was shown to repress the expression of downstream TNF-α signaling pathways mediated by the TLR5/flagellin complex formation. Based on molecular docking simulation, TH1020 is suggested to compete with flagellin and disrupt its association with TLR5. TH1020 provides a much-needed molecular probe for studying this important protein-protein interaction and a lead compound for identifying novel therapeutics targeting TLR5.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
