HIDE SMILES / InChI
N-acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine (acetyl farnesylcysteine), a modulator of G protein and G-protein coupled receptor signaling, inhibits neutrophil chemotaxis and other inflammatory responses in cell-based assays, is a synthetic substrate for the isoprenylated protein methyltransferase (also known as S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferase). It was shown, that the topical N-acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine inhibited mouse skin inflammation and might exert its anti-inflammatory effects through the inhibition of chemokine production by stimulated endothelial cells.

Sample Use Guides

in mice: 50 mg of N-acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine (AFC) was dissolved in CDCl3. For the histology experiments, the AFC was applied 30 minutes after the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), induced edema
Route of Administration: Topical
In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: N-acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine (AFC), dose-dependently inhibits ATP-, ATPγS- and TNFα-induced production of CXCL1, CXCL8 and CCL2 by a human dermal microvascular EC line (HMEC-1) in vitro under conditions that do not affect cell viability. Inhibition of ATPγS- or TNFα-stimulated release of these chemokines was associated with reduced mRNA levels. AFC may exert its anti-inflammatory effects through the inhibition of chemokine production by stimulated endothelial cells.
