Ac-YVAD-CHO acetate
Ac-YVAD-CHO (L-709049) acetate is a potent, reversible, specific tetrapeptide interleukin-lβ converting enzyme (ICE) inhibitor with mouse and human Ki values of 3.0 and 0.76 nM. Ac-YVAD-CHO acetate is also a caspase-1 inhibitor. Ac-YVAD-CHO acetate can suppress the production of mature IL-lβ.

Ac-YVAD-CHO acetate inhibits mouse and human IL-1β with IC50 values of 2.5 and 0.7 μM respectively[1].
Ac-YVAD-CHO (0.01-100 μM) acetate reduces the elevations of IL-lβ in the plasma and peritoneal fluid treated with LPS[1].
Ac-YVAD-CHO (15.6 μM) acetate reduces NO-induced thymocyte apoptosis[3].
Ac-YVAD-CHO (15.6 μM, 12 h) acetate inhibits NO-induced PARP cleavage in SNAP-treated thymocytes[3].

Ac-YVAD-CHO (2-8 μg, intrastriatal infusion) acetate attenuates Quinolinic acid (QA)-induced apoptosis in rat striatum[2].
Ac-YVAD-CHO (10 and 50 mg/kg; i.p.; 1 hour) acetate is cleared from the blood rapidly, and drops precipitously to approximately 1 and 0.2 μM at 30 and 60 minutes after injection[1].
