TPL2 kinase antagonists such as 4-(3-Chloro-4-fluorophenylamino)-6-(pyridin-3-yl-methylamino)-3-cyano-[1,7]-naphthyridine are proposed to encompass the effects of several anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor agents: anti-cytokine drugs (anti-IL-6, anti-TNFα, anti-COX2, and anti-RANKL); anti-chemokine drugs (anti-CCR2 and anti-CXCR4); and anti-signal inhibitors (anti-NF-κB, anti-STAT3, anti-NFAT and anti-MAPKs) 6, 20, 131. This evidence concerns the gene PTGS2 and neoplasm.
