VX-745 is a first-generation inhibitor of p38αMAPK with IC50 value of 1.0 μM when tested with Werner syndrome dermal fibroblasts [1].
Mammalian mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases are serine /threonine kinases and have 4 subfamilies: ERK, JNK, MAPKp38 and ERK5. MAPK pathway plays a pivotal role in transmitting signals from cell membrane to nucleus and also participates in many intracellular signaling pathways that control a wide spectrum of cellular processes (growth, differentiation, stress responses, cancer progression) [2]. MAPKp38 is originally isolated from lipopolysaccharide-stimulated monocytes. And according to the distribution in tissue, regulation of kinase activation and subsequent phosphorylation of downstream substrates, it is divided into four isoforms p38alpha, p38beta, p38gamma and p38delta [3].
VX-745 is an exquisite kinase selectively inhibit p38αMAPK and is regarded as an anti-inflammatory candidate. When tested with PBMCs or whole blood, VX-745 treatment could inhibit the secretion of IL-1β and TNF-α in vitro [4]. In human dermal fibroblast cells, VX-745 treatment blocked p38 signaling to rescue the aging phenotype in Werner syndrome [5].
