sp600125

SP600125 (JNK Inhibitor II) is a JNK inhibitor that inhibits JNK1, JNK2, and JNK3 (IC50=40/40/90 nM) with oral potency, reversibility, and ATP-competitive properties. SP600125 inhibits autophagy and induces apoptosis.

SP 600125, negative control is a methylated analog of SP 600125 and can be used as a negative control for SP 600125. SP 600125, negative control inhibits DTP3 and GADD45β/MKK7 (growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible β/mediator-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 7) and is capable of restoring activation.The IC50s of SP 600125, negative control against JNK2 and JNK3 were 18 and 24 μM, respectively.

JNK-IN-12 (compound P2) is a mitochondrial-targeted JNK inhibitor with an IC50 value of 66.3 nM, comprising a mitochondrial-specific cell-penetrating peptide linked to SP600125, a selective JNK inhibitor. It selectively impedes mitochondrial JNK phosphorylation without inhibiting nuclear JNK signaling and has been shown to ameliorate Parkinson's disease (PD) symptoms in both in vitro and in vivo studies [1].

JNK-IN-14 is a potent inhibitor of JNK with IC50 values of 1.81 nM for JNK1, 12.7 nM for JNK2, and 10.5 nM for JNK3. It induces early-stage apoptosis, arrests cell population at the G2/M phase, and moderately inhibits beclin-1 production in K562 leukemia cells, demonstrating greater inhibitory efficacy than SP600125. [1]

High affinity JNK inhibitor (Ki values are 25-50 nM). Inhibits JNK via competitive binding of the ATP-binding site of active, phosphorylated JNK. Exhibits > 40-fold selectivity for JNK over p38, ERK, IKK2, protein kinase C, Lck and ZAP70. Hepatoprotective. Also inhibits HCMV replication.
