EGR-1-IN-1 is a EGR-1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.86 μM. EGR-1-IN-1 binds to the zinc finger DNA-binding domain of EGR-1 and promotes the dissociation of the EGR-1-DNA complex. EGR-1-IN-1 reduces the mRNA expression levels of EGR-1-regulated inflammatory genes induced by TNFα. EGR-1-IN-1 alleviates atopic dermatitis-like lesions in the ear skin of mice. EGR-1-IN-1 serves as a lead compound for the development of targeted compounds for inflammatory skin diseases. EGR-1-IN-1 can be used in studies related to atopic dermatitis.

    1.86 μM (IC50)

    In Vitro

    EGR-1-IN-1 (IT25) potently inhibits the DNA-binding activity of human EGR-1, with an IC50 of 1.86 μM in in vitro biochemical assays, and achieves an inhibition rate of 76.1% at a concentration of 50 μM[1].
    EGR-1-IN-1 (0-5 μM; 30 min pre-incubation, followed by 1 h TNFα stimulation) inhibits TNFα-induced formation of EGR-1-DNA complexes in human HaCaT keratinocytes[1].
    EGR-1-IN-1 (0-5 μM; 30 min pre-incubation, followed by 12 h TNFα stimulation) reduces the mRNA expression of TNFα-induced, EGR-1-regulated inflammatory genes in human HaCaT keratinocytes[1].

    Cell Line: human HaCaT keratinocytes
    Concentration: 0, 1, 5 μM
    Incubation Time: 30 min pre-incubation, followed by 12 h TNFα stimulation
    Result: Dose-dependently reduced TNFα-induced mRNA expression of multiple EGR-1-regulated inflammatory genes, including TSLP, IL17, IL4, IL13, IL23, IL33, IL1β, IL6, CCL2, CCL5, and Artemin.
    In Vivo

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
