| Targets |
The primary target of Darizmetinib is MKK4 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 4, also known as MEK4 or MAP2K4). MKK4 is a dual-specificity kinase that activates the JNK and p38 MAPK signaling pathways, which play important roles in cellular stress responses, inflammation, and apoptosis. Darizmetinib inhibits MKK4 with an IC50 of 0.02 µM. It is selective for MKK4 over JNK1, B-RAF, and MKK7, with IC50 values of 7.07, 11.46, and 14.97 µM, respectively. By selectively inhibiting MKK4, Darizmetinib modulates downstream JNK and p38 signaling pathways.

| ln Vitro |
Darizmetinib is a potent and selective MKK4 inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.02 µM. It demonstrates selectivity for MKK4 over JNK1, B-RAF, and MKK7 (IC50s = 7.07, 11.46, and 14.97 µM, respectively). This selectivity profile suggests that Darizmetinib specifically targets MKK4 without significantly affecting other kinases in the MAPK pathway. The compound is supplied with a purity of ≥98% and is soluble in DMSO at ≥10 mg/mL.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Darizmetinib (10 mg/kg) decreases hepatocyte apoptosis in a mouse model of liver damage. This demonstrates its potential to protect against liver injury by inhibiting MKK4-mediated apoptosis. The compound is being developed for applications in extensive oncological liver resections or transplantation of small liver grafts, where reducing hepatocyte apoptosis could improve outcomes. Its oral activity makes it suitable for convenient administration.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme activity assays for Darizmetinib typically involve measuring its ability to inhibit MKK4 kinase activity. Recombinant MKK4 enzyme is incubated with its substrate in the presence of ATP and increasing concentrations of Darizmetinib. Kinase activity is measured by detecting phosphorylation of the substrate, and the IC50 is determined from the dose-response curve. The reported IC50 is 0.02 µM. Selectivity is confirmed by testing against a panel of other kinases, including JNK1, B-RAF, and MKK7.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Darizmetinib involve treating cells with the compound and measuring inhibition of MKK4-mediated signaling. Readouts include phosphorylation of downstream targets such as JNK and p38, as well as cellular responses such as apoptosis. The compound's ability to decrease hepatocyte apoptosis has been demonstrated in a mouse model of liver damage. Its effects on cell proliferation and survival would be assessed in relevant cell lines.

| Additional Infomation |
Darizmetinib is a small molecule drug. Its International Nonproprietary Name (INN) prefix "-tinib" indicates that darizmetinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. The monoisotopic molecular weight of darizmetinib is 457.1 Da. Darizmetinib is an orally bioavailable mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP) kinase 4 (MKK4; MAP2K4) inhibitor with potential hepatoprotective, proliferative, and liver regeneration effects. After oral administration, darizmetinib selectively targets, binds to, and inhibits MKK4 activity in hepatocytes. This allows the MKK7 and mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 (MAPK8; MAP2K1) proliferation-enhancing pathways to be activated, which in turn activate the transcription factor ATF2 and the ETS domain protein ELK1. This promotes hepatocyte proliferation, increases hepatocyte survival, and promotes liver regeneration after hepatectomy. This may help prevent liver failure, restore liver quality, and protect hepatocytes from death. MKK4 is a MAP2K and part of the stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, playing a crucial role in inhibiting cell proliferation and regulating hepatocyte regeneration. Inhibiting MKK4 can enhance the regenerative capacity of hepatocytes.
Darizmetinib (HRX215) is an orally active, potent, and selective inhibitor of MKK4. It inhibits MKK4 with an IC50 of 0.02 µM and is selective over JNK1, B-RAF, and MKK7.
