hk-4

RIPK3-IN-4 (Compound 42) is a RIPK3 inhibitor that mitigates necroptosis, inflammatory responses, and HK-2 cell damage. It alleviates acute kidney injury by attenuating Cisplatin- and I/R-induced kidney damage, along with associated inflammatory responses and necroptosis [1].

p-nitro-Pifithrin-α is a cell-permeable analog of pifithrin-α, a potent p53 inhibitor. It suppresses p53-mediated TGF-β1 expression in HK-2 cells and inhibits the activation of caspase-3 by Zika virus (ZIKV) strains. Moreover, p-nitro-Pifithrin-α attenuates steatosis and liver injury in mice subjected to a high-fat diet, mitigating the effects of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease [1] [2] [3] [4].
