Icerguastat
Based on 4 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Icerguastat (Sephin1), a derivative of Guanabenz lacking the α2-adrenergic activity, is a selective inhibitor of the phosphatase regulatory subunit PPP1R15A (R15A). Icerguastat inhibits eIF2α dephosphorylation, thereby prolonging the protective response. Anti-prion effect.

Biological Activity
Icerguastat (5 μM) prolongs eIF2α phosphorylation in oligodendrocytes under stress[1].
Icerguastat (Sephin1) (selective inhibitor of a holophosphatase), safely and selectively inhibits a regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 1 in vivo. Icerguastat selectively binds and inhibits the stress-induced PPP1R15A, but not the related and constitutive PPP1R15B, to prolong the benefit of an adaptive phospho-signaling pathway, protecting cells from otherwise lethal protein misfolding stress[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Icerguastat (100 μg; i.p.) prolongs the survival of prion-infected mice[3].
