ML351 is a potent and highly specific 15-LOX-1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 200 nM. It demonstrates excellent selectivity (>250-fold) over related isozymes such as 5-LOX, platelet 12-LOX, 15-LOX-2, ovine COX-1, and human COX-2. ML351 has been shown to prevent dysglycemia and reduce β-cell oxidative stress in a nonobese diabetic mouse model of T1D.
