Comment: VRT-043198 generated from the prodrug belnacasan (VX-765) is a potent and selective inhibitor of caspase-1 from Vertex. When administered orally to mice, it inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced cytokine secretion and reduces disease severity and the expression of inflammatory mediators in models of rheumatoid arthritis and skin inflammation, suggesting that as a cytokine inhibitor it could be useful for treatment of inflammatory diseases [1].
Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
