Biological Activity for DPTIP

DPTIP is a potent and selective sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase (N-SMase2) inhibitor (IC₅₀ = 30 nM). Exhibits no inhibition of related enzymes alkaline phosphatase, phosphomonoesterase or acid sphingomyelinase. Inhibits extracellular vesicle (EV) release in primary astrocyte cultures and in vivo. Attenuates IL-1β-induced astrocyte-derived EV release in a mouse model of brain injury and suppresses infiltration of immune cells into the brain. Metabolically stable and brain penetrant.
