Salicylanilides: Selective inhibitors of interleukin-12p40 production
摘要:
Interleukin (IL)-12p40, a subunit component of both IL-12 and IL-23, is being widely studied for its role in in. ammatory disease. As part of an effort to pro. le cellular signaling pathways across different cell types, we report salicylanilide inhibitors of IL-12p40 production in stimulated dendritic cells. Based on a hypothesis that a desirable therapeutic pro. le is one that could block IL-12p40 but not IL-6 production, we engaged in directed analoging. This resulted in salicylanilides with similar IL-12p40 related potency but enhanced selectivity relative to IL-6 production. (C) 2008 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
