Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Quiflapon, also known as MK 0591, is a potent and selective 5-Lipoxygenase-activating protein (FLAP) inhibitor. MK-0591 is also a potent inhibitor of leukotriene (LT) biosynthesis in intact human and elicited rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) (IC50 values 3.1 and 6.1 nM, respectively) and in human, squirrel monkey, and rat whole blood (IC50 values 510, 69, and 9 nM, respectively). MK-0591 has a high affinity for 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP) as evidenced by an IC50 value of 1.6 nM in a FLAP binding assay.
