NFAT:AP-1 inhibitor-10 is a novel inhibitor of the NFAT:AP-1:DNA interaction on the ARRE-2 element, binding to DNA in a sequence-selective manner and inhibiting the transcription of the Il2 gene and several other cyclosporin A-sensitive cytokine genes important for the effector immune response.
NFAT inhibitor. Inhibits LPS or LPS plus IFN-γ-induced IL-12 p40, IL-12 p70, IL-23 and TNF secretion from bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). Also attenuates NO production and Nos2 mRNA expression in LPS-stimulated BMDMs. Improves symptoms in a mouse
KRN2 has potential to treat NFAT5-mediated Chronic Arthritis. KRN2 is a selective inhibitor of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT5), with an IC50 of 100 nM.
Picrasidine I has antiosteoclastogenic effect by inhibiting inflammation induced activation of MAPKs, NF-κB and ROS generation followed by suppressing the gene expression of c-Fos and NFATc1 in osteoclast precursors.
