BX-795

BX-795 is a potent and relatively specific TBK1 and IKKε inhibitor with an IC50 of 6 and 41 nM. BX-795 also inhibit other kinases such as PDK1, Aurora B, ERK8, and MARK3 with IC50 of 111, 31, 140 and 81 nM, respectively. BX-795 prevents TBK1- and IKKε-mediated activation of IRF3 and production of IFN-β. BX-795 also suppresses the activities of MARK1, MARK2, MARK4, NUAK1, VEGFR, MLK1, MLK2, MLK3 with IC50 of 55, 53, 19, 5, 157, 50, 46 and 42 nM, respectively. BX-795 blocks the secretion of IFN-β from macrophages whether stimulated by LPS, a TLR4 agonist.
