ASK1

Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1; MAP3K5; MAPKKK5; Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 5; MEK kinase 5

Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) is a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP3K) family which acts as an upstream regulator for the activation of p38 MAPK and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). Under normal physiological conditions, ASK1 is maintained in an inactive state through binding to the reduced form of thioredoxin. However, during pathological conditions which induce intracellular production of reactive oxygen species (e.g., mitochondrial or endoplasmic reticulum stress), thioredoxin is oxidized and dissociates from ASK1 facilitating activation of ASK1 and downstream p38 MAPK and JNK signaling that can cause tissue injury .

    Aceglutamide
    		Inhibitor ≥98.0%
    Aceglutamide (α-N-Acetyl-L-glutamine; N2-Acetylglutamine) is a neuroprotectant that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier. Aceglutamide can enhance the antioxidant systems of glutathione (GSH), thioredoxin (Trx) and Nrf2. Aceglutamide also inhibits ASK1 and TRAF1, activates the Akt/Bcl-2 anti-apoptotic pathway, enhances the activity of antioxidant enzymes and reduces oxidative damage. Aceglutamide can improve neurological deficits after cerebral ischemia, reduce infarct volume, and inhibit neuronal apoptosis, especially substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons. Aceglutamide can reduce cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, improve motor dysfunction, and is used in ischemic stroke-related research.
