RIPK1 8.6 nM (Kd) RIPK3 >5000 nM (Kd)
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1). SZM679 is a selective RIPK1 inhibitor with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 8.6 nM for RIPK1. It demonstrates minimal off-target activity against RIPK3, with a Kd of greater than 5000 nM. By selectively inhibiting RIPK1, SZM679 blocks the initiation of the necroptotic cell death pathway and reduces downstream inflammatory responses, which are key drivers of many diseases. |

| ln Vitro |
SZM679 (0-10 μM; 24 h; necrotic L929 and HT-29 cells) inhibits the RIPK1 pathway with an EC50 value of 2 nM, which confers an anti-necrosis effect. Additionally, TNF-α, cycloheximide, and z-VAD-fmk(TCZ)-induced necroptosis are all prevented by SZM679. In a dose-dependent manner, SZM679 guards against TZ-induced necroptosis[1]. Necrotic HT-29 cells treated with SZM679 (1 μM; 6 h) preferentially suppresses RIPK1 expression but not RIPK3 or MLKL. SZM679 prevents the formation of necrosomes by preventing RIPK1 from being phosphorylated by TSZ[1].
SZM679 exhibits potent anti-necroptotic activity in vitro with an EC50 of 2 nM for the RIPK1-mediated pathway. At a concentration of 1 uM for 6 hours, it selectively inhibits the expression of RIPK1 but not RIPK3 or MLKL in necrotic HT-29 cells. It effectively blocks necrosome formation by inhibiting TSZ (TNF-alpha + Smac mimetic + z-VAD-fmk)-induced phosphorylation of RIPK1, thereby preventing downstream cell death. The compound provides robust protection against TNF-alpha, cycloheximide, and z-VAD-fmk (TCZ)-induced necroptosis in a dose-dependent manner. |
| ln Vivo |
In vitro, SZM679 (10–40 mg/kg; ip; male C57BL/6 J mice with TNF-induced SIRS models) guards against TNF-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) that is specific to necroptosis[1]. One daily for seven days, SZM679 (1 mg/kg) was injected intragastrically. enhances STZ-induced AD mice's cognitive function[1]. One daily for seven days, SZM679 (1 mg/kg) was injected intragastrically. reduces inflammatory cytokine expression, delays the onset of AD biomarkers, rescues brain structural damage without apparent toxicity, and prevents RIPK1 phosphorylation in AD mouse brain tissues[1].
SZM679 (1 mg/kg) administered orally once daily for 7 days improves cognitive function and rescues brain structure damage in a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced Alzheimer‘s disease (AD) mouse model. In an in vivo SIRS model, intraperitoneal injection of SZM679 (10-40 mg/kg) protects mice in a dose-dependent manner from TNF-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome. It also decreases Tau hyperphosphorylation, neuroinflammation, and reduces RIPK1 phosphorylation levels in the hippocampus and cortex. |
| Enzyme Assay |
RIPK1 binding affinity can be measured using an enzymatic or competition binding assay. Recombinant human RIPK1 protein is incubated with increasing concentrations of SZM679 (0-1000 nM) and a tracer ligand. The binding reaction is performed in a suitable buffer for a set time. The dissociation constant (Kd) of 8.6 nM is determined via non-linear regression analysis from the binding curves generated. Selectivity over RIPK3 (Kd >5000 nM) is confirmed in parallel assays using recombinant RIPK3 protein.

Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: Necrotic HT-29 cells Tested Concentrations: 1 μM Incubation Duration: 6 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Inhibited the phosphorylation of RIPK1 at 1 μM, resulting in the inhibition of the downstream phosphorylation of RIPK3 and MLKL. For the necroptosis assay, L929 or HT-29 cells are seeded in 96-well plates. Cells are treated with SZM679 (0-10 uM) for 24 hours, then stimulated with TZ (TNF-alpha + z-VAD-fmk). Cell viability is measured by the CellTiter-Glo assay or by quantifying LDH release. The EC50 value for anti-necroptosis activity is calculated as 2 nM. For the phosphorylation inhibition assay, necrotic HT-29 cells are treated with 1 uM SZM679 for 6 hours. The levels of phosphorylated RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL are then analyzed by Western blot to confirm pathway inhibition. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male C57BL/6 J mice with TNF-induced SIRS models[1]
Doses: 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip)injection Experimental Results: Protected mice in a dose-dependent manner from hypothermia and death. Animal/Disease Models: Male C57BL/6 J mice with AD models[1] Doses: 1 mg/kg Route of Administration: Administered intragastrically (po); one time/day for 7 days Experimental Results: Improved the anxiety, behavior, and exploratory ability of AD mice. Improved the learning and memory ability of AD mice. Animal/Disease Models: Male C57BL/6 J mice with AD models[1] Doses: 1 mg/kg Route of Administration: Administered intragastrically (po); one time/day for 7 days Experimental Results: Rescued the damaged hippocampal structure of AD mice and restored the cell number and morphology. Down-regulated the expression of the inflammatory cytokines, the IL-1β and TNF-α levels. In a TNF-induced SIRS model, male C57BL/6 J mice are injected with TNF (15 ug). SZM679 is administered via intraperitoneal injection at doses of 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg. The primary endpoint is protection from hypothermia and death, which is observed in a dose-dependent manner. In an STZ-induced AD model, SZM679 is administered intragastrically at 1 mg/kg once daily for 7 days. The compound's efficacy is evaluated by cognitive and behavioral tests (e.g., Morris water maze) and by biochemical analysis of brain tissue to measure Tau phosphorylation and neuroinflammation markers. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
SZM679 is orally active and bioavailable. Its molecular weight is 591.51, and it has a molecular formula of C27H18F5N3O5S. For in vivo formulations, the compound can be prepared in a solution containing 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween-80 + 45% saline for injection. The powder form should be stored at -20degC for up to 3 years for long-term stability. When dissolved in DMSO, it is recommended to store at -80degC for up to 1 year. It exhibits good solubility in DMSO.

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In a 7-day treatment study in an AD mouse model at a dose of 1 mg/kg (oral, once daily), SZM679 was reported to cause no obvious toxicity while rescuing brain structure damage. In the TNF-induced SIRS model, SZM679 protected mice from death, indicating that it is well-tolerated at active doses. No acute toxicity is reported at the tested doses. However, as a research chemical, it has not undergone full toxicological profiling and is not approved for human use.

| Additional Infomation |
SZM679 is a research-grade, selective RIPK1 inhibitor that has not yet been approved for clinical therapy. It is a valuable tool for studying RIPK1-dependent necroptosis in the contexts of inflammatory diseases, Alzheimer‘s disease, and sepsis. Its high selectivity for RIPK1 over RIPK3 and other kinases makes it a particularly useful chemical probe. The compound is for research use only and is not intended for human therapeutic applications.
