Comment: MW150 is a novel, pharmacologically selective p38α MAP kinase (MAPK14) inhibitor [2-3]. It is CNS-penetrant and is being pursued as a clinical lead for neurological disorders. MW150 is claimed in patent WO2014145485A2 that was filed by The Trustees Of Columbia University In The City Of New York [1].
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Immunopharmacology Comments |
Studies using a variety of animal models of central nervous system diseases show that pharmacological p38 MAP kinase inhibition can abrogate detrimental proinflammatory cytokine overproduction, neuroinflammation and attenuate pathological neuronal/synaptic damage [2,4-5]. MW150 was developed as an isoform-selective inhibitor to explore the potential clinical benefit of target selectivity on drug efficacy, in particular to minimise dose-related adverse pharmacology associated with off-target activity (such as GPCR agonist activity) [3,5]. |
