Biological Activity
MIF[1]
4-IPP is a specific suicide substrate for MIF that binds covalently and irreversibly to MIF to inhibit its biologic activity[1].
4-IPP inhibits RANKL-induced p65 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation by preventing the interaction of MIF with thioredoxin-interacting protein-p65 complexes[1].
4-IPP can inhibit receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis and potentiate osteoblast-mediated mineralization and bone nodule formation[1].
4-IPP (0.5-200μM;24-72 hours) inhibits osteoclastogenesis in a dose-dependent manner[1].
4-IPP(5-20μM; 5 days) inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption [1].
