Product Data Sheet
Meclofenamic acid
Catalog No. B21517
Meclofenamic acid is a highly selective inhibitor of the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) enzyme, which plays a crucial role in the regulation of m(6)A RNA methylation. By competing with FTO for binding to m(6)A-containing nucleic acids, it modulates RNA metabolism and influences cellular processes related to metabolism and obesity. Additionally, Meclofenamic acid exhibits non-selective blockade of gap junctions and inhibits the potassium channels hKv2.1 and hKv1.1, with IC50 values of 56.0 µM and 155.9 µM, respectively. This compound is valuable for research applications focused on obesity, metabolic regulation, and ion channel physiology.
