Ainsliadimer A selectively inhibits IKKα/β by covalently binding a conserved cysteine

Abstract: Aberrant activation of NF-κB is associated with the development of cancer and autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. IKKs are well recognized as key regulators in the NF-κB pathway and therefore represent attractive targets for intervention with small molecule inhibitors. Herein, we report that a complex natural product ainsliadimer A is a potent inhibitor of the NF-κB pathway. Ainsliadimer A selectively binds to the conserved cysteine 46 residue of IKKα/β and suppresses their activities through an allosteric e… Show more

“…To avoid potential systemic exposure, an inhaled IKK-b inhibitor (PF-104) was developed to inhibit neutrophilic lung inflammation induced by inhaled endotoxin in mice (Sommers et al, 2009). Ainsliadimer-A is found in a Chinese herbal product that has been described as a potent and selective inhibitor of IKKa/b, thus inhibiting the classic and alternative pathways of NF-kB (Dong et al, 2015). It inhibits the release of inflammatory cytokines after LPS injection in mice, so has potential as an anti-inflammatory drug.…”

“…The drug molecules are connected to biocompatible inert resin (magnetic beads or agarose gel) through chemical reaction. The target protein of the drug molecule was determined by electrophoresis, purification and high resolution mass spectrometry [42][43][44][45][46]. Using this strategy, a series of targets for active components of TCM have been successfully identified.…”
