Product Description
Information
Vidofludimus Vidofludimus (SC12267, 4SC-101) is an orally active and potent dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) inhibitor with IC50 of 134 nM for human DHODH. Vidofludimus calcium (IMU-838) is investigated as a potential treatment option for COVID-19. Phase 2.
Targets
Human DHODH 134 nM
In vitro
Vidofludimus causes a concentration dependent inhibition of phytohemagglutinin-stimulated PBMC proliferation via the inhibition of pyrimidine de novo synthesis. Vidofludimus attenuates IL-17 secretion from colonic strips by inhibition of STAT3 and NF-κB activation.
In vivo
In MRLlpr/lpr mice, Vidofludimus (300 mg/kg, p.o.) reduces systemic autoimmunity and improves Lupus Nephritis. In Rats, Vidofludimus (60 mg/kg, p.o.) effectively reduces macroscopic and histological pathology and the numbers of CD3+ T cells. In a rat model of renal transplantation, Vidofludimus (20 mg/kg, p.o.) prolongs survival, paralleled by amelioration of histologic signs of acute rejection.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as biphenyls and derivatives. These are organic compounds containing to benzene rings linked together by a C-C bond.
