Mixed lineage kinases (MLKs) are mitogen activated protein kinase kinase kinases (MAPKKKs) with features of both serine-threonine and tyrosine kinases that regulate the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade, and also regulate p38 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK).

MLK3 (MAP3K11) is the most widely expressed MLK family member, and is expressed in neurons (as well as other cell types). At the cellular level, MLK3 is activated by stress, including reactive oxygen species, ceramide, and TNFα. At the molecular level, it is activated by Cdc42 and Rac, which interact with MLK3, and can cause it to dimerize via a leucine zipper interface, resulting in autophosphorylation and enzyme activation.

    MLKL-IN-4
    		Inhibitor
    MLKL-IN-4 (compound 56) is a potent MLKL (Mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein) inhibitor. MLKL-IN-4 inhibits necroptosis in HT-29 cells and acts downstream of MLKL phosphorylation, with EC50 of 82 nM. MLKL-IN-4 is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

    Ligustroflavone (Standard)
    		Inhibitor
    Ligustroflavone (Standard) is the analytical standard of Ligustroflavone (HY-N0546). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Ligustroflavone is an orally active flavonoid compound. Ligustroflavone can be extracted from Ligustrum lucidum. Ligustroflavone antagonizes the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), inhibits the RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL pathway, and downregulates TGF-β/Smad signaling. Ligustroflavone regulates calcium metabolism, protects bone tissue, reduces cerebral ischemic injury, and inhibits liver fibrosis. Ligustroflavone can be used in the study of diabetic osteoporosis, ischemic stroke, and liver fibrosis.
