Explore how neutrophils shape the immune response in health and disease. This poster highlights neutrophil pathogen defense mechanisms, including phagocytosis, degranulation, and NETosis, as well as neutrophil roles in inflammation and NET-associated pathologies.
DOWNLOAD NOWAZD 9668 is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of neutrophil elastase (IC50 = 12 nM for the human enzyme).1 It is greater than 600-fold selective for neutrophil elastase over other serine proteases, including human proteinase-3 and cathepsin G, bovine trypsin and chymotrypsin, and porcine pancreatic elastase. AZD 9668 inhibits neutrophil elastase activity in zymosan-stimulated isolated whole blood and in cell-associated assays (IC50s = 46 and 48 nM, respectively). It decreases the number of neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in a mouse model of smoke-induced airway inflammation when administered at a dose of 6 mg/kg. AZD 9668 also prevents airspace enlargement and small airway remodeling in a guinea pig model of chronic smoke-induced inflammation and emphysema.
