BAY 11-7082

Potential anti-inflammatory agent. Selectively and irreversibly inhibits NF-κB activation by blocking TNF-α-induced phosphorylation of IκB-α without affecting constitutive IκB-α phosphorylation. Inhibits the TNF-α-induced surface expression of adhesion molecules ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and E-selectin in human endothelial cells with IC₅₀ values of 5-10 µM.
