CCR2 antagonist 4 (Teijin compound 1) 是高效的、特异性的CCR2拮抗剂，对 CCR2b 的IC50为 180 nM，抑制 MCP-1 诱导的趋化作用的 IC50为 24 nM。

CCR2 antagonist 4 hydrochloride is a specific CCR2 antagonist (IC50s: 180 nM for CCR2b). It potently inhibits MCP-1-induced chemotaxis (IC50: 24 nM).

Emestrin is a mycotoxin originally isolated from E. striata that has antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and cytotoxic activities.1,2,3,4,5 It is active against the fungi C. albicans and C. neoformans, as well as the bacteria E. coli, S. aureus, and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA; IC50s = 3.94, 0.6, 2.21, 4.55, and 2.21 μg ml, respectively).2 Emestrin is a chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 2 (CCR2) antagonist (IC50 = 5.4 μM in a radioligand binding assay using isolated human monocytes).3 Emestrin (0.1 μg ml) induces apoptosis in HL-60 cells.4 It induces heart, thymus, and liver tissue necrosis in mice when administered at doses ranging from 18 to 30 mg kg.5 |1.
