Product Data
Biological target:
PMX464 (AW 464), a thiol-reactive quinol, is the inhibitor of thioredoxin-thioredoxin reductase (Trx/TrxR) system.
In vitro activity:
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and CXCL8, NF-kappaB DNA binding, nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB p65 subunit, IkappaBalpha degradation, IkappaB phosphorylation and IkappaB kinase (IKK) activity were assessed in A549 cells stimulated with IL-1beta with or without PMX464 pretreatment. Effects of PMX464 on ICAM-1 expression in human lung microvascular endothelial cells (HLMVEC) were also investigated. PMX464 reduced ICAM-1, GM-CSF and CXCL8 expression in IL-1beta-stimulated A549 cells and ICAM-1 in HLMVEC. PMX464 inhibited IL-1beta-induced NF-kappaB DNA binding, nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB p65 subunit and factors involved in NF-kappaB activation; specifically, IkappaBalpha degradation, IkappaB phosphorylation and IkappaB kinase (IKK) activity in A549.

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.
