Uses
PH-797804 is a novel N-phenylpyridinone inhibitor of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase derived from a racemic mixture as the more potent atropisomer and is also known to exerts anti-inflammat
ory properties.
Definition
ChEBI: A member of the class of benzamides obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 3-{3-bromo-4-[(2,4-difluorobenzyl)oxy]-6-methyl-2-oxopyridin-1-yl}-4-methylbenzoic acid with the amino group of methylamine.
Biological Activity
ph-797804 is a novel, potent, atp-competitive and reversible inhibitor of human p38 map kinase. it specifically inhibits p38α with ic50 value of 26 nm and k(i) value of 5.8 nm.ph-797804 inhibits lps induced tnf-α and il-1β production in monocytes with a concentration-dependently manner. ph-797804 blocks rankl and m-csf induced osteoclast formation in primary rat bone marrow cells.orally administered ph-797804 suppresses tnf-α level in a dose-dependent manner in lps induced lewis rats and also in cynomolgus monkeys. additionally, ph-797804 has been shown to inhibit chronic inflammation in arthritis models induced by mouse collagen-induced or rat streptococcal cell wall (scw) extract.
Biochem/physiol Actions
PH-797804 is an orally active, potent and readily reversible ATP competitive inhibitor of the alpha isoform of human p38 MAP kinase. PH-797804 blocks inflammation-induced production of cytokines and proinflammatory mediators.
