IC50 data are derived as the mean and standard deviation of 3 independently derived IC50 values.

a

The reported IC50 value for the inhibition of purified recombinant human p38α kinase activity are taken from the following sources: RWJ68198, (Dodd et al., 2000, Rupert et al., 2003); RWJ67657, (Wadsworth et al., 1999); SB202474, (Halawani et al., 2004); SB203580, (Brumlik et al., 2004, Wadsworth et al., 1999), and SD-282 (Sweitzer et al., 2004).

b

The reported IC50 value for the inhibition of TgMAPK-1 autophosphorylation is taken from the following sources: SB203580, (Brumlik et al., 2004); RWJ67657 or SB202474, (Brumlik et al., unpublished observations).

c

ND; The IC50 value has not been determined.

d

N/A; Not applicable.
