4μ8C (IRE1 Inhibitor III) is a small-molecule inhibitor ofIRE1α.

When applies to the media of ER stressed cultured cells, 4μ8C (IRE1 Inhibitor III) inhibits Xbp1 splicing in a concentration-dependent manner. 4μ8C dissociates slowly from IRE1, but ishout of inhibitor leads to rapid recovery of Xbp1 splicing in cells^[1].The IRE1 endoribonuclease inhibitor 4μ8c prevents the splicing of the XBP1 mRNA in response to ER stress caused by mutant proinsulin production^[2]. The inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α) is a serine-threonine kinase that plays crucial roles in activating the unfolded protein response. 4μ8C treatment dramatically inhibits IL-4 production by CD4⁺T cells under Th0 conditions because both the IL-4 levels in the culture supernatant and the percentage of IL-4 positive cells are reduced by 4μ8C treatment. In addition, both IL-5 and IL-13 production are significantly reduced upon treatment with 4μ8C^[3].

4μ8c (IRE1 Inhibitor III) (i.p. injection; 10 mg/kg/day for 4 more weeks) leads to a significant reduction (45.2%) in atherosclerotic lesion area in en face aorta preparations. 4μ8c can effectively mitigate plaque development in mice^[4].
4μ8C (orally; 10, 50, or 100 mg/kg) suppresses passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) in mice (ED50 = 25.1 mg/kg)^[5].
4μ8C reverses the ER stress-dependent loss of several known RIDD targets, with an EC₅₀of approximately 4 μM, approximating that of inhibition of XBP1 target gene activation^[1].
