Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
TBK1
IKK-ε
In vitro
Dose-response relationship of amlexanox inhibition of IKK-ɛ and TBK1 activity as determined by MBP phosphorylation showing an IC50 of approximately 1-2 μM. This compound also blocks the activity of TBK1 at approximately the same concentrations but has no effect on IKK-α or IKK-β and at these concentrations do not block any other kinases from a broad panel representing most kinase families. Inhibition of IKK-ɛ or TBK1 by this chemical is competitive for its substrate ATP, indicating that it interacts with the enzymes in the ATP-binding site. It increases the phosphorylation of TBK1 at Ser172 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and blocks polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C)-stimulated phosphorylation of interferon responsive factor-3 (IRF3), a presumed substrate of IKK-ɛ and TBK1.
In vivo
Treatment of obese mice with amlexanox elevates energy expenditure through increased thermogenesis, producing weight loss, improves insulin sensitivity and decreases steatosis.
