R788 is a prodrug of R406 (Item No. 11422), an inhibitor of Syk (Ki = 30 nM).1 R788 conversion to the biologically active R406 is catalyzed by the action of alkaline phosphatases present on the apical brush-border of the membranes of intestinal enterocytes.1 It produces anti-inflammatory and immunomodulating effects by inhibiting Syk-mediated IgG Fcγ receptor signaling, which prevents activation of mast cells, macrophages, and B cells, as well as related inflammatory responses.1 R788 has undergone clinical evaluation for efficacy in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.1
