PRN694 shows extended target residence time on ITK and RLK, enabling durable attenuation of effector cells in vitro and in vivo. PRN694 is an irreversible, highly selective, and effective covalent interleukin-2-inducible T-cell kinase (ITK) and resting ly
BC12 exhibits unusually potent immunomodulatory actions on T lymphocyte function, including inhibition of T cell proliferation and IL-2 cytokine production.
DMI-9523 is nuclear factor NF-κB activation inhibitor. Antigen-stimulated human T lymphocytes produce significantly lower quantities of interferon-gamma and tumor necrosis factor-alpha after stimulation in vitro in the presence of DA-DKP. DA-DKP can modul
Tetranactin is a macrotetrolide and a monovalent cation ionophore that has been found in S. aureus and has antibacterial, insecticidal, and mitogenic activities. It exhibits an equilibrium permeability ratio 1,000-fold greater for lithium than sodium or cesium ions accross bilayer membranes at low voltages. Tetranactin inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and C. miyabeanus and R. solani fungi when used at concentrations less than 0.9 μg/ml. Tetranactin (0.5-1.5 μg per insect) dose-dependently increases the mortality of adult C. chinensis weevils up to 100% and has mitogenic activity against T. telarius when sprayed onto plants with an LC50 value of 9.2 μg/ml. It reduces IL-1β- and cAMP-induced secretion of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) from rat mesangial cells (IC50s = 43 and 33 nM, respectively). Tetranactin (50 ng/ml) suppresses the proliferation of human T lymphocytes induced by allogeneic cells and IL-2 and supresses the generation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes in mixed lymphocyte cultures. In vivo, tetranactin (10 mg/animal per day) completely inhibits the formation of experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU) in rats.
FTY720 is a derivative of ISP-1 (myriocin), a fungal metabolite of the Chinese herb Iscaria sinclarii as well as a structural analog of sphingosine. It is a novel immune modulator that prolongs allograft transplant survival in numerous models by inhibiting lymphocyte emigration from lymphoid organs. FTY720 is phosphorylated by sphingosine kinase, which then acts as a potent agonist at four of the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors (S1P1, S1P3, S1P4, and S1P5). Down-regulation of S1P1 receptors on T and B lymphocytes by FTY720 results in defective egress of these cells from spleen, lymph nodes, and Peyer's patch. azido-FTY720 is a highly photoreactive analog of FTY720 that can be used to identify receptor binding sites for this ligand.
NS2 (114-121), Influenza, is a fragment derived from the nonstructural protein 2 (NS2) of the influenza virus. This compound serves as an epitope for influenza research and can be utilized to study the CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) in antiviral immune responses.
