KMS99220 is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable activator of the Nrf2 inhibitory protein Keap-1. KMS99220 enhances the activity of AMPK, activates the Nrf2 signaling pathway, and reduces the phosphorylation of IκB, nuclear translocation of NFκB, as well as the phosphorylation levels of JNK, IKK and p38 MAPK via HO-1. KMS99220 binds to Keap1 to trigger the nuclear translocation of Nrf2, induces the expression of HO-1, NQO1, GCLC, GCLM and proteasome subunits; enhances proteasomal enzymatic activity; inhibits iNOS expression, nitric oxide production and IL-1β generation; attenuates microglial activation; reduces α-synuclein aggregation; and prevents dopaminergic neuron degeneration and motor dysfunction. KMS99220 prevents the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, induces the expression of Nrf2 downstream target genes, and effectively ameliorates associated motor dysfunction in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease. KMS99220 is applicable to research related to Parkinson's disease.

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.
