tcsc1511 Necrostatin 2

Necrostatin 2 is a potent necroptosis inhibitor. EC₅₀ for inhibition of necroptosis in FADD-deficient Jurkat T cells treated with TNF-α is 0.05 μM.











IC50 & Target: Necroptosis^[1]

In Vitro: Evaluation of necroptosis inhibitory activity is performed using a FADD-deficient variant of human Jurkat T cells treated with TNF-α. Utilizing these conditions the cells efficiently undergo necroptosis, which is completely and selectively inhibited by Necrostatin 2 (EC₅₀=50 nM). Necrostatin 2 shows activity in a broad range of necroptosis cellular systems^[1]. Necrostatin 2 at 30 μM completely protects L929 cells from TNF-α-induced necroptosis. In addition to TNF-α, the pan-caspase inhibitor benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp(OMe)-fluoromethylketone (zVAD.fmk) has also been found to induce necrosis in L929 cells, which is efficiently inhibited by Necrostatin 2^[2]. EC₅₀ for inhibition of necroptosis in FADD-deficient Jurkat T cells treated with TNF-α is 0.05 μM^[3].
