Biological target:
RA 839 is an Nrf2 activator; it inhibits Nrf2/Keap1 interaction (Kd = 6 μM). RA 839 suppresses LPS-induced iNOS and nitric oxide expression in macrophages and is anti-inflammatory.
In vitro activity:
RA-839 inhibits Rotavirus (RV) RNA and protein expression, viroplasm formation, yield of virion progeny and virus-induced cytopathy independent of RV strains. This study demonstrates that RA-839 is a potent antagonist of RV propagation in vitro and can be developed as anti-rotaviral therapeutics.

In vivo activity:
RA839 prevented the induction of both inducible nitric-oxide synthase expression and nitric oxide release in response to lipopolysaccharides in macrophages. In mice, RA839 acutely induced Nrf2 target gene expression in the liver. RA839 is a selective inhibitor of the Keap1/Nrf2 interaction and a useful tool compound to study the biology of Nrf2.

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
