MCC950 sodium
MCC950 sodium salt is a potent, selective inhibitor of NOD-like receptor family protein 3 (NLRP3) with IC50 value of 7.5 nM in bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) [1].
MCC950 effectively and selectively inhibits NLRP3 which is involved in various biological processes including autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases. MCC950 is thus a potential therapeutic for NLRP3-associated syndromes, and a tool for the further study of the NLRP3 inflammasome in human health and disease [1].
In BMDM and human monocyte derived macrophage (HMDM) cells, MCC950 specifically inhibited canonical and noncanonical NLRP3 activation at IC50 of 7.5 nM and 8.1 nM, respectively, without affecting absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2), NOD-like receptor family CARD domain containing protein 4 (NLRC4) or NLRP1 inflammasomes [1].
In mice intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharides (LPS), pre-treatment with MCC950 (50 mg/kg, i.p., 1 h before LPS injection) reduced serum concentrations of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-6 while it did not considerably decrease the amount of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). MCC950 attenuated the severity of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [1].

Reaction Conditions |
0.001 ~ 10 μM MCC950 sodium for 30 min incubation |
Applications |
Treating cells with nanomolar concentrations of MCC950 sodium dose-dependently inhibited the release of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in BMDMs, HMDMs, and PBMCs. LPS-dependent tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) secretion was not impaired by MCC950 sodium, which demonstrated that the inhibition effect of MCC950 sodium on IL-1β secretion was specific. |

Dosage form |
10 and 50 mg/kg Injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) |
Applications |
In mice intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharides (LPS), pre-treatment with MCC950 sodium (50 mg/kg, i.p., 1 h before LPS injection) reduced serum concentrations of IL-1β and IL-6 while it did not considerably decrease the amount of TNF-α. Furthermore, MCC950 sodium (10 mg/kg, i.p.) attenuated the severity of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, a disease model of multiple sclerosis. |
