NP3-253 is an orally active and brain-penetranted NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor. NP3-253 functions as a molecular glue that prevents NACHT-subdomain rearrangements, locking NLRP3 in an inactive conformation. NP3-253 inhibits production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1beta and IL-18. NP3-253 can be used for the research of inflammation and neurological disease, suah as peritonitis[1].
