Merck, I3159-10MG, IMD-0354

Application
IMD-0354 has been used to study the effect of NF-κB (nuclear factor) inhibition on differentially expressed in chondrocytes 2. It has also been used to study the role of NF-κB signaling in tumor necrosis factor-induced certain transcription factors expression using human primary fibroblasts.
Biochem/physiol Actions
IMD-0354 acts as an inhibitor by inhibiting the phosphorylation of the NF-κB (nuclear factor) and its translocation into the nucleus. It blocks IκBα phosphorylation (IC50 ~ 250 nM). Cardioprotectant, that reduces IL-1β and MCP-1 production (IC50 In vivo studies also prove that IMD-0354 inhibits retinal vessel growth. IMD-0354 also acts as an inhibitor of Aquaporin 4 (AQP4) inhibitor (IC50 0.2μM) with no inhibitory potency to IKK-β. [⁴]
