ABOUT
NF-κB inhibitor - NLRP3 inhibitor
BAY 11-7082 was first described as an irreversible inhibitor of the NF-κB pathway [1]. A number of reports have since shown that BAY 11-7082 has multiple targets, including the NLRP3 (NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein 3, cryopyrin, or NALP3) inflammasome sensor [2]. The multiprotein NLRP3 inflammasome complex is a key player in innate immunity.
Modes of action:
Inhibition of NF-κB translocation into the nucleus:BAY11-7082 inhibits the phosphorylation of IκB-α, which is essential for the release of NF-κB from the cytosolic IκB-α/ NF-κB complex [1]. The transcription factor NF-κB regulates multiple aspects of innate and adaptive immune functions and serves as a pivotal mediator of inflammatory responses.
Inhibition of inflammasome responses: BAY 11-7082 may inhibit the inflammasome responses indirectly by preventing the nuclear translocation of NF-κB at the priming step. Moreover, BAY 11-7082 has been shown to exhibit direct inhibitory functions on the NLRP3 inflammasome by blocking the sensor's ATPase activity [2].
Key features:
- Potent inhibitor of NF-κB and the NLRP3 inflammasome
- Does not inhibit the NLRP1 inflammasome
- InvitroFit™ grade: each lot is highly pure (≥95%) and functionally tested

Details
The NLRP3 Inflammasome:
The NLRP3 inflammasome is an innate immune sensor that is activated by a two-step process; a first signal (‘priming’) provided mainly by bacterial components or endogenous cytokines involves NF-κB induction, while the second signal provided by a wide array of stimuli including microbial toxins, endogenous molecules or crystalline substances and leads to inflammasome assembly and activation [1, 2]. This triggers inflammasome multimerization and caspase-1 activation with the subsequent cleavage of interleukin-1β (IL-1β)/IL-18 and the pore-forming protein Gasdermin D (GSDMD) into their active forms. Additionally, the activation of the inflammasome also leads to alarmin secretion and pyroptosis, a form of immunogenic cell death.
