Product Data
Biological target:
PF-3644022 is a potent, selective, orally active and ATP-competitive MAPKAPK2 (MK2) inhibitor with an IC50 of 5.2 nM and a Ki of 3 nM.
In vitro activity:
PF-3644022 is a potent freely reversible ATP-competitive compound that inhibits MK2 activity (K(i) = 3 nM) with good selectivity when profiled against 200 human kinases. In the human U937 monocytic cell line or peripheral blood mononuclear cells, PF-3644022 potently inhibits TNFalpha production with similar activity (IC(50) = 160 nM). PF-3644022 blocks TNFalpha and IL-6 production in LPS-stimulated human whole blood with IC(50) values of 1.6 and 10.3 microM, respectively. Inhibition of TNFalpha in U937 cells and blood correlates closely with inhibition of phospho-heat shock protein 27, a target biomarker of MK2 activity.

In vivo activity:
Western blot and Real-time PCR showed that the expressions of iNOS and Arg-1 in the compressed spinal cord of twy/twy mice were significantly higher than those of the control group. After treatment with PF-3644022, the expression of Arg1 was increased while that of iNOS decreased. Realtime PCR revealed the increased expressions of inflammation related factors (such as IL-1β, NF-κB, TNF-α, MK2) and pro-apoptotic gene (Bax) except the decreased expression of anti-apoptotic gene (Bcl-2). Nevertheless, such increases were vanished after treatment of PF-3644022 except an increased expression of Bcl-2. The BMS score showed a reduced motor function of the twy/twy mice. The motor function was enhanced again with the treatment of PF-3644022. Reference: Ann Palliat Med. 2021 Feb;10(2):1304-1312. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33040559/
