The p38αMAPK (MAPK14, mitogen-activated protein kinase 14, CSBP, CSBP1, CSBP2, CSPB1, EXIP, Mxi2, PRKM14, PRKM15, RK, SAPK2A, p38, p38ALPHA) is a serine/threonine protein kinase which plays a key role in the intracellular signaling networks that transduce and amplify stress signals into physiological changes. This kinase is a brain drug discovery target. It is involved in neuroinflammatory responses and synaptic dysfunction in multiple degenerative and neuropsychiatric brain disorders.
We offer the chemical optimization service - synthesis of p38αMAPK targeted set of arylpyridazine derivatives for developing of drugs for neurological disorders. These novel compounds will be selected from a set of 2,000+ virtual arylpyridazines using our company’s proprietary molecular modeling platform ODDA™, synthesized and provided for your biological projects.
This set of novel analogs will be synthesized exclusively upon your request.

This is referred to a paper from Journal of Medicinal Chemistry* which showed that authors discovered p38αMAPK inhibitors. Compound mw150 (6-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-3-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-(pyridin-4-yl)pyridazine) possess the best inhibition activity against this enzyme and efficacious in diverse animal models of neurologic disorders:
MW150, p38αMAPK Ki = 100 nM
Design and synthesis of inhibitors p38αMAPK is a promising direction in neurologic diseases treatment.
