LDN 0088050 is selectivity adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (AFABP, FABP4) inhibitor with Ki values of 0.29 and 1.3 μM for FABP4 and FABP3, respectively. LDN 0088050 binds to FABP4 with a Kd of 2.05 μM[1]. Ki: 0.29 μM (FABP4), 1.3 μM (FABP3)[1]Kd: 2.05 μM (FABP4)[1]

LDN 0088050 significantly inhibits LPS-induced expression of both TNFα and IL-6 in RAW264.7 cells[1].
