Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) is a stress-activated protein kinase
that can be induced by inflammatory cytokines, bacterial endotoxin,
osmotic shock, UV radiation, and hypoxia. We report the identification
of an anthrapyrazolone series with significant inhibition of JNK1, -2, and -3 (Ki = 0.19 µM). SP600125 is a
reversible ATP-competitive inhibitor with >20-fold selectivity
vs. a range of kinases and enzymes tested. In cells, SP600125 dose
dependently inhibited the phosphorylation of c-Jun, the expression of
inflammatory genes COX-2, IL-2,
IFN-
Cell Biology
SP600125, an anthrapyrazolone inhibitor of Jun N-terminal kinase
, TNF-
, and prevented the
activation and differentiation of primary human CD4 cell cultures. In
animal studies, SP600125 blocked (bacterial) lipopolysaccharide-induced expression of tumor necrosis factor-
and inhibited
anti-CD3-induced apoptosis of CD4+
CD8+ thymocytes. Our study supports targeting JNK as an
important strategy in inflammatory disease, apoptotic cell
death, and cancer.
