Ralimetinib selectively inhibits phosphorylation of MK2 (Thr334) and has no effect on phosphorylation of p38α MAPK, JNK, ERK1 2, c-Jun, ATF2, or c-Myc. Ralimetinib is an effective and selective, ATP-competitive inhibitor of p38 MAPK α β (IC50s: 5.3 and 3.
Tpl2 kinase inhibitor is an inhibitor of tumor progression locus 2 (Tpl2; IC50= 0.05 μM).1It is selective for Tpl2 over MEK, p38 MAPK, Src, MK2, and PKC (IC50s = >40, 180, >400, 110, and >400 μM, respectively). Tpl2 kinase inhibitor inhibits LPS-induced TNF-α production in isolated human monocytes and whole blood (IC50s = 0.7 and 8.5 μM, respectively). It enhances differentiation induced by calcitriol in HL-60 and U937 leukemia cells when used at a concentration of 5 μM.2Tpl2 kinase inhibitor (5 μM) inhibits the proliferation of KG-1a leukemia cells.3 1.Garvin, L.K., Green, N., Hu, Y., et al.Inhibition of Tpl2 kinase and TNF-α production with 1,7-naphthyridine-3-carbonitriles: Synthesis and structure-activity relationshipsBioor.

MW-150 hydrochloride (MW01-18-150SRM hydrochloride) is a potent and selective inhibitor of p38α MAPK, with a Ki value of 101 nM. It exhibits excellent CNS penetration and oral bioavailability. MW-150 hydrochloride (MW01-18-150SRM hydrochloride) effectively suppresses the phosphorylation of MK2, a substrate of endogenous p38α MAPK, in activated glial cells.
