Biological Activity

Description Amlexanox is an anti-inflammatory antiallergic immunomodulator and also an inhibitor of the protein kinases TBK1 and IKK-ε.
Targets
TBK1 [1] IKK-ε [1]
In vitro
In vitro Dose-response relationship of amlexanox inhibition of IKK-ɛ and TBK1 activity as determined by MBP phosphorylation showing an IC50 of approximately 1-2 μM. Amlexanox also blocks the activity of TBK1 at approximately the same concentrations but has no effect on IKK-α or IKK-β and at these concentrations do not block any other kinases from a broad panel representing most kinase families. Inhibition of IKK-ɛ or TBK1 by amlexanox is competitive for its substrate ATP, indicating that it interacts with the enzymes in the ATP-binding site. Amlexanox increases the phosphorylation of TBK1 at Ser172 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and blocks polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C)-stimulated phosphorylation of interferon responsive factor-3 (IRF3), a presumed substrate of IKK-ɛ and TBK1[1].
Cell Research Cell lines 3T3-L1 adipocytes
Concentrations 12, 25, 50 μM
Incubation Time 1 h
Method TBK1 phosphorylation (pTBK1) at Ser172 and IRF3 phosphorylation at Ser396 (pIRF3) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes treated with amlexanox or cayman and with or without poly I:C are examined.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
