| Bioactivity | NLRP3-IN-2, an intermediate substrate in the synthesis of glyburide, inhibits the formation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in cardiomyocytes and limits the infarct size following myocardial ischemia/reperfusion in the mouse, without affecting glucose metabolism[1]. | ||||||||||||
| In Vivo | NLRP3-IN-2 is well tolerated with no effects on the glucose levels in vivo[1].NLRP3-IN-2 (100 mg/kg) treatment in a model of AMI due to ischemia+reperfusion significantly inhibits the activity of inflammasome (caspase-1) in the heart by 90% (P40%, P70%, P<0.01) [1].
