CDDO-EA is an NF-E2 related factor 2/antioxidant response element ( Nrf2/ARE ) activator. In Vitro CDDO-EA potently activates Nrf2/ARE in a cell culture model of ALS and in the G93A SOD1 mouse model of ALS. CDDO-EA is a potent inducer of apoptosis in A549 lung cancer cells, as shown both by PARP cleavage and Annexin staining. CDDO-EA is more potent than CDDO itself as inducers of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). In RAW264.7 macrophage-like cells, CDDO-EA is 7-fold more potent than CDDO as suppressors of the ability of IFN-γ to induce iNOS. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. In Vivo The survival analysis shows that G93A mice treated with CDDO-EA, compared to G93A littermate controls, lives significantly longer. CDDO-EA treatment increases the life-span by 20.6 days from 124.05±3.7 days to 144.72±8.1 days (16.6%) (p Form:Solid IC50& Target:Nrf2/ARE
