Discovery of novel and selective IKK-β serine-threonine protein kinase inhibitors. Part 1
IκB kinase β (IKK-β) is a serine-threonine protein kinase critically involved in the activation of the transcription factor Nuclear Factor kappa B (NF-κB) in response to various inflammatory stimuli. We have identified a small molecule inhibitor of IKK-β. Optimization of the lead compound resulted in improvements in both in vitro and in vivo potency, and provided IKK-β inhibitors exhibiting potent activity in an acute cytokine release model (LPS-induced TNFα).
