semapimod

Semapimod tetrahydrochloride (CPSI-2364 tetrahydrochloride) is a synthetic ornithine mitogen-activated protein kinase blocker and pro-inflammatory cytokine production inhibitor that interferes with macrophage and microglia function. Sematimod tetrahydrochloride inhibits TLR4 signaling, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, and is used in the study of Crohn's disease and other inflammatory conditions.

Semapimod is an inhibitor of proinflammatory cytokine production, capable of suppressing TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. It hinders TLR4 signaling with an IC50 of approximately 0.3 μM, impedes p38 MAPK, and reduces nitric oxide production in macrophages. This compound shows promise for treating various inflammatory and autoimmune disorders [1] [2] [3].
