CDDO-trifluoroethyl-amide (CDDO-TFEA), a trifluoroethylamide derivative of CDDO, is an Nrf2/ARE pathway activator [1][2][3].
The NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2)/antioxidant response element (ARE) signaling pathway is an important pathway involved in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory responses. Modulation of the Nrf2/ARE pathway is an attractive therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Huntington's disease (HD) [2][3].
CDDO-TFEA is an Nrf2/ARE pathway activator. In NSC-34 G93A SOD1 cells, CDDO-TFEA upregulated Nrf2 expression and caused translocation of Nrf2 into the nucleus. CDDO-TFEA also increased the expression of Nrf2/ARE-regulated proteins (NQO-1, HO-1 and Glutathione reductase).
In mice with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), CDDO-TFEA reduced immune and inflammatory cell populations. CDDO-TFEA also significantly reduced Th1 and Th17 cytokines (IL6, IL17, IFNγ, TNFα and GMCSF) [1]. In ALS mice model, CDDO-TFEA upregulated the expression and resulted in translocation of Nrf2 to the nucleus of neurons in the spinal cord. In G93A SOD1 mice, CDDO-TFEA increased the life-span by 17.6 days [2].
