NIC-0102 (compound 27) (7.5, 15, 30, 60 nM; 1h) specifically suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation in LPS-primed J774A.1 and BMDM cells[1].
NIC-0102 (7.5, 15, 30, 60 nM; 1h) induces polyubiquitination of NLRP3 via inhibition of the proteasome during the activation step in LPS-primed J774A.1 cells[1].
NIC-0102 (7.5, 15, 30, 60 nM; 1h) exhibits inhibitory effects on NF-κB in the priming step of the NLRP3 pathway in LPS-primed J774A.1 cells[1].
NIC-0102 (15, 60 nM; 1h) blocks NLRP3-ASC interaction and ASC oligomerization in LPS-primed J774A.1 cells[1].
NIC-0102 (0.125, 0.25, 0.5 mg/kg; p.o.; single every 72 h for 10 days) shows strong protection against DSS-induced acute colitis in mice[1].
