| | Calpain Inhibitor I Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | ALLN (110044-82-1) is a cell-permeable, peptide aldehyde inhibitor of calpain I (Ki=190 nM), calpain II (Ki=150 nM), cathepsin L (Ki=0.5 nM) and other neutral cysteine proteases.1?Inhibits cell cycle progression at G1/S?and metaphase/anaphase in CHO cells by inhibiting cyclin B degradation.2?Inhibits proteolytic degradation of IκBα and IκBβ in RAW macrophages induced with LPS.3?Blocks AIF-mediated necroptosis.4?Cell permeable. | | Chemical Properties | white to off-white powder | | Uses | It inhibits apoptosis in thymocytes and metamyelocytes. It also inhibits cell cycle progression at the G1/S border and metaphase/anaphase in CHO cells by inhibiting cyclin B degradation. ALLN inhibits the proteolysis of IκBα and IκBβ by the ubiquitin-proteasome complex. ALLN also prevents nitric oxide production by activated macrophages by interfering with transcription of the inducible nitric oxide synthase gene. | | Uses | Calpain inhibitor I reversibly blocks the calcium-dependent neutral cysteine protease calpain I. Calpains have been implicated in various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell differentiation. | | Uses | Calpain inhibitor I inhibits calpain, which activates myosin light chain kinase and protein kinase C by partial proteolysis. The inhibitor should be membrane permeable due to low molecular weight and lack of charged residues.
Calpain Inhibitor I is used for western blotting methods. | | Definition | ChEBI: A tripeptide composed of N-acetylleucyl, leucyl and norleucinal residues joined in sequence. | | General Description | Calpain Inhibitor I is a strong, competitive inhibitor of the Ca2+-dependent neutral cysteine proteases calpain I and calpain II. | | Biological Activity | Calpain inhibitor (IC 50 = 0.09 μ M) that activates p53-dependent apoptosis in tumor cell lines. Increases activated p53, p21 and caspase levels and promotes cell cycle arrest through inhibition of cyclin D degradation in vitro . Also attenuates ischemia/reperfusion injury in cardiomyocytes, hepatocytes and renal tubular cells through downregulation of iNOS and COX-2 expression. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | Calpain Inhibitor I inhibits tumor necrosis factor-induced (TNF-induced) cleavage of Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and calpastatin in apoptosis. It also inhibits oxygen/glucose deprivation (OGD) induced cleavage of caspase-12 and Bcl-xL.. | | References | 1) Sasaki?et al.?(1990),?Inhibitory effect of di- and tripeptidyl aldehydes on calpains and cathepsins; J.
