ADWX 1
ADWX 1 is a new peptide inhibitor that is potent and selective for Kv1.3 with an IC50 value of 1.89 pM. ADWX 1 inhibits Kv1.3 channel activity specifically to inhibit both the initial calcium signaling and NF-κB activation. ADWX 1 ameliorates the disease in rats of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) models. ADWX 1 can be used to study T cell-mediated autoimmune diseases.
