Chemical Name:N-[3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-5-chloro-2-hydroxybe
nzamide
Biological Activity:
Inhibitor of IκB kinase-2 (IKK-2, IKK-β) that blocks NF-κB nuclear translocation. Attenuates myocardial
ischaemia/reperfusion injury by decreasing expression of adhesion molecules
ICAM-1 and P-selectin and inhibiting cytokine and chemokine production in
cardiomyocytes. Induces G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and
apoptosis in HMC-1and breast cancer
cells.
