JNK

c-Jun N-terminal kinase

JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase), a kinase subfamily belonging to the MAPK, is activated in response to various stress stimuli and possesses a wide variety of regulatory functions. The JNK family of serine/threonine protein kinases comprises three isoforms (JNK1, JNK2 and JNK3). JNKs are involved in the emergence and progression of diverse pathologies such as neurodegenerative, cardiovascular and metabolic disorders as well as inflammation and cancer.

Similar to the other MAP kinases, JNKs are activated by a phosphorylation cascade generally involving two types of upstream kinases, the so-called MAP kinase kinase kinases (MAP3K, MKKK) and the MAP kinase kinases (MAP2K; MKK). At the MAP2K level, JNKs are activated by MKK4 and MKK7, the former is a common activator of the JNK and the p38 MAP kinase signaling pathway. The JNK cascade shares various intersection points with other pathways making it a part of a complex signaling network.

    Imidapril hydrochloride (Standard)
    Inhibitor
    Imidapril (hydrochloride) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Imidapril (hydrochloride). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Imidapril hydrochloride (TA-6366) is an orally active dual inhibitor of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and MMP-9. Imidapril hydrochloride inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced phosphorylation of c-Jun, MKK4 and JNK in monocytes, and downregulates the production of specific inflammatory factors such as TNF-α and IP-10, thereby exerting anti-inflammatory activity. Imidapril hydrochloride also effectively ameliorates mesangial expansion and reduces urinary albumin excretion by inhibiting angiotensin AngII production, lowering glomerular pressure and oxidative stress, thus delaying disease progression. Imidapril hydrochloride can also directly bind to the active site of MMP-9 to inhibit gelatinase activity, and suppress the enlargement of cerebral aneurysms without altering systemic blood pressure. Imidapril hydrochloride is widely applicable to related studies on autoimmune glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, cerebral aneurysms and other conditions.

  • HY-13326R
    ASP3026 (Standard)
    ASP3026 (Standard) is the analytical standard of ASP3026. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. ASP3026 is a selective and orally active inhibitor of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). ASP3026 is a selective and oral active anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitor with a IC50 value of 3.5 nM. ASP3026 can inhibit the phosphorylation of IGF-1R, STAT3, AKT and JNK proteins, and induce the cleavage of caspase 3 and PARP. It also inhibited ROS and ACK. ASP3026 can be used in anti-tumor research.

  • HY-W100287R
    Murrayafoline A (Standard)
    Inhibitor
    Murrayafoline A (Standard) is the analytical standard of Murrayafoline A (HY-W100287). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Murrayafoline A is a carbazole alkaloid that can be extracted from Murraya tetramera. Murrayafoline A directly targets Specificity protein 1 (Sp1), thereby inhibiting NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. Murrayafoline a induces a G0/G1-phase arrest in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells. Murrayafoline A attenuates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by promoting the degradation of intracellular β-catenin proteins. Murrayafoline A enhances the contraction of rat ventricular myocytes and L-type calcium current by activating protein kinase C. Murrayafoline A inhibits LPS (HY-D1056)-induced neuroinflammation in vivo. Murrayafoline A can be used for the study of inflammation, vascular complications and colon cancer.

    AEG3482 (Standard)
    Inhibitor
    AEG3482 (Standard) is the analytical standard of AEG3482 (HY-107599). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. AEG3482 is a potent antiapoptotic compound that inhibits Jun Kinase (JNK) activity through induced expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70). AEG3482 directly binds HSP90, thereby facilitating HSF1-dependent expression of HSP70 and HSP25.

  • HY-N0484R
    Liensinine (Standard)
    Inhibitor
    Liensinine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Liensinine (HY-N0484). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Liensinine is a bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid. By inhibiting the PI3K/AKT and JNK/p38-MAPK signaling pathways, Liensinine suppresses autophagy and apoptosis, clears , and exerts anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and neuroprotective effects. Liensinine activates AMPK and inhibits the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF, thereby suppressing angiogenesis. Liensinine exerts anti-tumor effects through ROS-mediated inhibition of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. Liensinine can be used for the research of diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, hepatocellular carcinoma, osteosarcoma, sepsis-induced organ injury and stroke.
