Molecular Weight 569.50 CAS No. 254750-02-2
Solubility (25°C)* In vitro DMSO 100 mg/mL (175.59 mM)
Ethanol 25 mg/mL (43.89 mM)
Water Insoluble
In vivo (Add solvents to the product individually and in order)
Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
5.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 100 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to make it clear; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Emricasan (IDN-6556, PF 03491390, PF-03491390) is a potent irreversible pan-caspase inhibitor. Emricasan is an inhibitor of Zika virus infection.
Targets
caspase [1]
In vitro Emricasan, also called IDN-6556 or PF-03491390, is an inhibitor of activated caspases, and it has sub- to nanomolar activity in vitro. Emricasan shows neuroprotective activity for hNPCs but does not suppress ZIKV replication[2].
In vivo Emricasan decreases liver injury but not metabolic derangement in NASH. It also ameliorates inflammation. In the murine NASH model, stellate cell activation and hepatic fibrogenesis are attenuated by administration of the pan-caspase inhibitor Emricasan[1]. Emricasan is currently being evaluated in phase 2 clinical trials for the reduction of hepatic injury and liver fibrosis caused by chronic HCV infection[2].

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:[2]
  • Cell lines

    Astrocytes

  • Concentrations

    9 μM

  • Incubation Time

    1 h

  • Method

    Astrocytes are mock-infected, treated with DMSO or treated with 2 μM niclosamide, 92 μM PHA-690509, 9 μM emricasan, or a combination of 92 μM PHA-690509 and 9 μM emricasan for 1 h before infection with PRVABC59 (MOI = 0.5). Cells are fixed 24 h after infection and stained for ZIKVE and nuclei.

Animal Study:[1]
  • Animal Models

    C57BL/6J mice

  • Dosages

    0.3mg/kg/day

  • Administration
