Comment: TAK-828F is a potent, selective, and orally available novel retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor γt (RORγt) inverse agonist [6,12]. The X-ray structure of RORγt in complex with TAK-828F has been submitted to the Protein Data Bank (6BR3).
![]() 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 |
RORγt expression is highly restricted to the thymus, where it acts as a crucial regulator in the differentiation of human Th17 cells [1,4,9]. Th17 cells produce IL-17cytokines (preferentially IL-17A and IL-17F) which are central drivers of pathogenesis in a number of autoimmune diseases (e.g. IBD [11], psoriasis [3,10], RA [7], MS [5], COPD and asthma) [2,8,13]. Deletion of RORγt impairs Th17 differentiation in murine and human cells, and RORγt knockout mice do not develop the expected pathologies in various autoimmune disease models. Hence inhibition of RORγt activity is considered as a valid therapeutic mechanism for the identification of novel immunosuppressive agents. |
