IKK Degrader

Parthenolide is a sesquiterpene lactone found in the medicinal herb Feverfew. Parthenolide exhibits anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting NF-κB activation; also inhibits HDAC1 protein without affecting other class I/II HDACs.

Ac2-26 ammonium is the N-terminal peptide of annexin 1, and has anti-inflammatory activity. Ac2-26 ammonium induces a decrease in IKKβ protein in lysosomes by chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA). Ac2-26 ammonium ameliorates lung ischemia-reperfusion injury. Ac2-26 ammonium also inhibits airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness in an asthma rat model.

PROTAC IKKβ/NR4A1 degrader-1 is a highly efficient and effective dual-PROTAC degrader targeting IKKβ and NR4A1. PROTAC IKKβ/NR4A1 degrader-1 can increase the levels of caspase 3 and cleaved caspase 3 proteins, while the necroptosis marker RIP kinase remained unchanged, indicating that it can induce apoptosis. PROTAC IKKβ/NR4A1 degrader-1 can be used for the study of Acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Red: IKKβ/NR4A1 ligand (HY-13067); Blue: E3 ligase CRBN ligand (HY-14658); Black: Linker (HY-79577).

UNC8209 is a selective PROTAC-based TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) degrader. UNC8209 recruits cereblon (CRBN) to mediate ubiquitin-proteasome pathway-dependent TBK1 degradation and reduces AAK1, GAK, and AURKA abundance. UNC8209 suppresses tumor cell proliferation, impairs in vivo tumor growth, inhibits colony and clonogenic growth and enhances tumor cell sensitivity to TNFα or IFN-γ. UNC8209 modulates cell cycle and induces mild apoptosis. UNC8209 can be used for the research of clear cell renal cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

PROTAC IKKβ degrader-1 is a IKKβ PROTAC degrader (DC₅₀ = 7.15 μM). PROTAC IKKβ degrader-1 induces apoptosis (Apoptosis) in triple-negative breast cancer cells. PROTAC IKKβ degrader-1 induces G1 phase cell cycle arrest in triple-negative breast cancer cells. PROTAC IKKβ degrader-1 exhibits antiproliferative activity against a variety of cells. PROTAC IKKβ degrader-1 is applicable for research related to cancers such as triple-negative breast cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer.
