- BIRB0796 - Doramapimod- Soluble in 0.1N HCl(aq) and DMSO
- MF: C31H37N5O3
- MW: 527.66
Description
BIRB 796 (Doramapimod) is a highly potent, selective and orally active p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) inhibitor. BIRB 796 exhibits high affinity for all four p38 isoforms and is more potent than SB 203580 (Axon 1363) against p38α and p38β MAPK, resulting in effective suppression of p38-dependent inflammatory signaling pathways.
The p38 MAPK pathway regulates inflammatory cytokine production, cellular stress responses, differentiation, and survival. BIRB 796 suppresses the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α and IL-1β and has been extensively investigated in inflammatory disease models. In stem cell research, inhibition of p38 signaling has been shown to support pluripotency, enhance cellular reprogramming, promote self-renewal, and improve expansion of stem and progenitor cell populations. BIRB 796 is therefore widely used in stem cell biology, regenerative medicine, and developmental biology studies. Additionally, BIRB 796 has demonstrated antitumor activity in preclinical cancer models through inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis.
