Orazipone
Orazipone (OR 1384) is a small molecule immunomodulator with strong anti-inflammatory properties. Orazipone exerts its immunomodulatory effect by forming reversible thiol complexes, which bind to intracellular signaling proteins and the thiol groups of glutathione. Orazipone exhibits potent anti-eosinophilic activity by inducing apoptosis. Orazipone inhibits activation of inflammatory transcription factors NF-kB and STAT 1 and decreases inducible iNOS expression and NO production in response to inflammatory stimuli. Orazipone reduces NADPH oxidase activity and thereby decreases ROS production. Orazipone has a protective effect in intestinal radiation injury.
