GNF-PF-3777

GNF-PF-3777 (8-Nitrotryptanthrin) is a potent human indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 2 (hIDO2) inhibitor which significantly reduces IDO2 activity with K_i of 0.97 μM. IC50 & Target: Ki: 0.97±0.1 μM (hIDO2)^[1]
IC50: 1.8±0.6 μM (hIDO2), 0.45±0.2 μM (U87-hIDO2)^[1] In Vitro: The typtanthrin derivative GNF-PF-3777 (8-Nitrotryptanthrin; Compound 5i) is found to be a potent hIDO2 inhibitor with superior efficiency far better than that of the most frequently-used inhibitor L-1-MT. The IC₅₀ values show that all nine tryptanthrin compounds display hIDO2 inhibitory activities, GNF-PF-3777 demonstrates much stronger inhibition (1.87 μM) than both L-1-MT (82.53 μM) and D-1-MT (262.75 μM). GNF-PF-3777 exhibits significant antitrypanosomal activity with EC₅₀ of 0.82 μM^[2]. GNF-PF-3777 (8-Nitrotryptanthrin) has a microplate Alamar Blue assay (MABA) minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 0.032 μg/mL. GNF-PF-3777 also has a LORA MIC value of 2.4 μg/mL, while the majority of analogues lack LORA activity^[3].
