SP600125, a selective JNK inhibitor, is a potent inhibitor of NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1).

The c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) has been identified as a critical modulator in multiple cellular processes, including stress stimulus, inflammation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, etc. SP600125 is a widely used ATP-competitive reversible JNKs inhibitor. NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is a flavoprotein mediated two or four electron-reduction of quinones.
