Uses
Cot inhibitor-2 is a potent, selective and orally active cot (Tpl2/MAP3K8) inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.6 nM. Cot inhibitor-2 inhibts TNF-α production in LPS-stimulated human whole blood with an IC50 of 0.3 μM[1].
Definition
ChEBI: 8-chloro-4-(3-chloro-4-fluoroanilino)-6-[[1-(1-ethyl-4-piperidinyl)-4-triazolyl]methylamino]-3-quinolinecarbonitrile is an aminoquinoline.
in vivo
Cot inhibitor-2 (compound 34) is orally administered in rats with 100 mg/kg dosing and showed a Cmax of 517 ng/mL (0.89 μM) and AUC of 4841 ng h/mL. Cot inhibitor-2 is tested in the LPS-induced TNF-α production model in female Sprague-Dawley rats. With a 25 mg/kg po dose, Cot inhibitor-2 inhibits LPS-induced TNF-α production by 83%[1].
