| Bioactivity | NS3694, a diarylurea compound, is an apoptosome inhibitor. NS3694 inhibits apoptosome formation and caspase activation[1]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | When cell extracts are stimulated with cytochrome c and dATP in the presence of NS3694 (10-100 μM; 120 min), a dose-dependent inhibition of caspase 9, 3, and 7 processing, DFF45/ICAD and PARP cleavage, and DEVDase activity is observed[1].NS3694 (10-100 μM) inhibits TNF-induced effector caspase activation and apoptosis in MCF-casp3 cells[1].NS3694 specifically suppresses the cytochrome C-induced formation of apoptosome complex and caspase-9 activation, thus inhibiting the mitochondria-mediated apoptosis. NS3694 inhibits the formation of the apoptosome Apaf-1 by blocking the activation of the initiator caspase-9[1]. Western Blot Analysis[1] Cell Line: | ||||||||||||
