Dapansutrile(CAT: I019323), also known as MCC950, is a potent and selective inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome, a protein complex involved in the activation of inflammatory responses. By inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome, dapansutrile reduces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β and IL-18, thereby exerting anti-inflammatory effects. Additionally, dapansutrile has been shown to possess analgesic activity, potentially providing relief from pain associated with inflammatory conditions. Its oral bioavailability makes dapansutrile a promising candidate for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
