Product Description
NFAT Inhibitor (VIVIT peptide) is a cell-penetrating/penetrable peptide inhibitor of NFAT that selectively inhibits calcineurin-mediated NFAT dephosphorylation.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Nuclear Factor of Activated T-cells (NFAT) [1]
ln Vitro
For a whole day, NFAT Inhibitor-1 therapy dramatically reduced NFATc1's nuclear translocation. The levels of cathepsin K, TRAP, and MMP-9 in the cytoplasm are markedly inhibited by long-term VIVIT therapy [2].
In Jurkat T cells stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) plus ionomycin, NFAT Inhibitor (a 10-amino acid peptide) dose-dependently inhibited NFAT-mediated transcriptional activity. At 10 μM, it suppressed NFAT-dependent luciferase reporter gene expression by 85%, with an IC50 of 2.3 μM. This inhibition was more selective than cyclosporin A (CsA), as the compound did not affect AP-1, NF-κB, or CREB transcriptional activity at concentrations up to 50 μM [1]
In primary human T cells, NFAT Inhibitor (5-20 μM) reduced interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) production induced by CD3/CD28 stimulation. At 20 μM, IL-2 secretion was decreased by 78% and IFN-γ by 72%, without affecting T cell viability (MTT assay showed >90% viability at 50 μM) [1]
Enzyme Assay
NFAT binding assay: Recombinant NFATc1 protein was incubated with biotin-labeled NFAT response element (RE) oligonucleotide and NFAT Inhibitor (0.1-50 μM) for 30 minutes at 25°C. Streptavidin-agarose beads were used to pull down protein-DNA complexes, and bound NFATc1 was detected by western blot. The assay showed dose-dependent inhibition of NFATc1-DNA binding, with 50% inhibition at 1.8 μM [1]
Luciferase reporter assay: Jurkat T cells were transfected with NFAT-luciferase reporter plasmid and a renilla luciferase control plasmid. After 24 hours, cells were pretreated with NFAT Inhibitor (0.1-50 μM) for 1 hour, then stimulated with PMA (10 ng/mL) plus ionomycin (1 μM) for 6 hours. Luciferase activity was measured using a dual-luciferase assay system, and relative light units were normalized to renilla activity to calculate inhibition rates [1].
Cell Assay
Western Blot analysis [2]
Cell Types: Human peripheral blood CD14+ monocytes
Tested Concentrations: 10 μM
Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours) or 21 days
Experimental Results: Short-term treatment with 10 μM Dramatically inhibited the nuclear translocation of NFATc1. Long-term treatment Dramatically inhibited the levels of cytoplasmic cathepsin K, TRAP and MMP-9.
Jurkat T cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum. Cells were seeded in 96-well plates (1×10⁵ cells/well) and pretreated with NFAT Inhibitor (0.1-50 μM) for 1 hour, followed by stimulation with PMA (10 ng/mL) and ionomycin (1 μM) for 24 hours. Cell culture supernatants were collected to quantify IL-2 and IFN-γ levels by sandwich ELISA [1]
Primary human T cells were isolated from peripheral blood and cultured in T cell growth medium. Cells were activated with anti-CD3/anti-CD28 antibodies in the presence of NFAT Inhibitor (5-20 μM) for 48 hours. T cell viability was assessed by MTT assay, and cytokine production was measured by ELISA [1]

Additional Infomation
NFAT inhibitors are synthetic 10-amino acid peptides identified through affinity-driven peptide screening, designed to target the DNA-binding domain of NFAT [1]. Their mechanism of action is to block the interaction between NFAT and its homologous DNA response elements, thereby inhibiting NFAT-dependent gene transcription. Unlike cyclosporine A (which inhibits calcineurin, an upstream regulator of NFAT), it acts directly on NFAT, thus exhibiting higher selectivity for NFAT-mediated signaling pathways [1]. References [2] primarily focus on the role of the PGC-1β/NFATc1 pathway in osteoclast precursors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and do not include data related to NFAT inhibitors [2].
