Background:

Calpain Inhibitor I is an inhibitor of calpain I, calpain II, cathepsin B and cathepsin L with Ki values of 190 nM, 220 nM, 150 nM and 500 pM, respectively.

Calpain inhibitor I combined with Ad/gTRAIL induced cell death dramatically in DLD1-TRAIL/R cells, while calpain alone had only minimal killing effects. The combination of calpain inhibitor I and TRAIL protein resulted in cleavage of both caspase-8 and caspase-3 to active subunits [1].

Calpain inhibitor I treated male Sprangue-Dawley rats have seen reductions of P-selectin/ICAM-1 expression, neutrophil infiltration, lipid peroxidation, nitrotyrosine, PAR formation as well as IκB-α degradation [2].
