Z-WEHD-FMK (80 μM; 9 hours) elicits a near-complete blockage of C. trachomatis-induced cleavage of golgin-84 and increases GM130 expression in cells.
Z-WEHD-FMK (30 min before being exposed to E. piscicida) effectively inhibits 0909I E. piscicida induced ZF4 cells cytotoxicity and pyroptotic morphology. And in addition, it also inhibits the cytotoxicity induced by cytosolic LPS delivery.
Z-WEHD-FMK (20 μM;18-24 hours following Cr,Ni, and Co) significantly induces a decrease of 76% to 86% in IL-1β release with 200 to 400 ppm Cr, it also induces a decrease of 35% to 45% with 48 ppm Ni or higher, Finally, this caspase-1 inhibitor induced a decrease with 6 ppm Co, down to a level below the detection threshold, and a decrease of 40% to 48% with 12 to 24 ppm Co in bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM).
