DrugBank MoA: | RDEA119 is a potent, non-ATP competitive, highly selective inhibitor of MEK. RDEA119 is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of mitogen-activated ERK kinase (MEK), a key component of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway that is commonly defective in human tumors. The MEK1/2 pathway is important in cell cycle regulation in inflammatory bowel disease, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. RDEA119 was shown to reduce damage to colonic tissue in two different mouse models of colitis, murine trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) colitis model and murine dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) colitis model. |
