Description

General description

GW4869 is a commonly used pharmacological agent, which inhibits exosome generation. It blocks ceramide-mediated inward budding of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) and the release of mature exosomes from MVBs. GW4869 exhibits cytotoxicity to phosphatidylserine-expressing myeloma cells. It inhibits the secretion of IFN (interferon)-α by plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs).

Application

GW4869 has been used:

as an inhibitor of neutral sphingomyelinase and exosome biogenesis
to analyse the effects of arsenic trioxide (ATO) treatment for hepatoma carcinoma HCCLM3 cells on ceramide production
to determine the contributions of p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75^NTR) and tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA)- coupled pathways to nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced thermal hypersensitivity in rats

Biochem/physiol Actions

A cell-permeable, potent, specific, non-competitive inhibitor of N-SMase (neutral sphingomyelinase)
