Nur77-p38 Interaction Inhibitor, PDNPA

A cell-permeable phenylacetate based compound that specifically blocks the Nur77-p38α interaction by directly targeting the ligand-binding domain of Nur77 (~1 to 10 µM) and impedes Nur77 phosphorylation by p38α. Does neither modulate p38α kinase activity nor affects the stability of the p38α-Nur77 complex. Inhibits p65 binding to DNA and blocks LPS-induced (100 ng/ml) NF-κB activity in RAW264.7 cells (IC₅₀ = 1.6 µM), but does not affect the interaction between Nur77 and p65. Shown to reduce IL-6 concentration and prolong the lifespan of wild type mice treated with LPS. Also increases the survival rate of wild-type mice subjected to cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced sepsis.
