MJ-33 is a competitive phospholipase A₂ (PLA₂) inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.3 μM. MJ-33 inhibits the activation of NOX2 by blocking the PLA₂ activity of Prdx6, thereby reducing the production of ROS. MJ-33 effectively inhibits the activity of acidic PLA₂ (pH 4.0), reduces the degradation of pulmonary surfactant phosphatidylcholine (PC), but has no effect on alkaline PLA₂ (pH 8.5). MJ-33 significantly alleviates lung oxidative damage induced by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). MJ-33 significantly inhibits the invasive, migratory and adhesive abilities of prostate cancer cells by suppressing the MAPK, AKT, NF-κB and AP-1 signaling pathways. MJ-33 can be used to study ROS-related diseases and prostate cancer.

Description

MJ-33 is a competitive phospholipase A₂ (PLA₂) inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.3 μM. MJ-33 inhibits the activation of NOX2 by blocking the PLA₂ activity of Prdx6, thereby reducing the production of ROS. MJ-33 effectively inhibits the activity of acidic PLA₂ (pH 4.0), reduces the degradation of pulmonary surfactant phosphatidylcholine (PC), but has no effect on alkaline PLA₂ (pH 8.5). MJ-33 significantly alleviates lung oxidative damage induced by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). MJ-33 significantly inhibits the invasive, migratory and adhesive abilities of prostate cancer cells by suppressing the MAPK, AKT, NF-κB and AP-1 signaling pathways. MJ-33 can be used to study ROS-related diseases and prostate cancer[1][2][3].

In Vivo

MJ33 (500 nmol/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once daily for 7 consecutive days) reverses the increased epileptic susceptibility and elevated hippocampal ROS levels caused by D2HGDH knockdown in mouse epilepsy models[2].
MJ33 (0.4-10 nmol; intratracheal administration; intravenous administration; single administration) inhibits pulmonary Prdx6 PLA2 activity in mice by approximately 85%, and the activity recovers in a dose-dependent manner within 72 h; among the administration routes, intratracheal administration results in higher pulmonary uptake, while intravenous administration leads to moderate pulmonary uptake[3].
MJ33 (4 nmol; intravenous injection) reduces ROS production by 66% in a mouse model of lung ischemia/reperfusion injury, and essentially abolishes oxidative stress and increased pulmonary permeability[3].

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.
