    Product Description

    Skepinone-L is an ATP-competitive inhibitor of p38 MAPK isoform p38α (IC50s = 5 nM) and p38β (97% inhibition at 1 µM).1,2 It has little effect on a range of other kinases, including p38γ and p38δ. Skepinone-L dose-dependently blocks the phosphorylation of heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), a p38 MAPK substrate, in response to stimulation with anisomycin (Item No. 11308) in HeLa cells (IC50 = 25 nM) or TNF-α in THP-1 cells.1,2 At 1 µM, it prevents phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 in platelets in response to collagen-related peptide or thrombin (Item No. 13188), blunting platelet secretion and aggregation.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
