Used in research settings to study immune modulation, particularly in the context of autoimmune diseases and inflammatory conditions. Shows potential as a selective inhibitor targeting specific pathways involved in T-cell activation, making it a candidate for exploring new therapeutic strategies in immunology. Investigated for its ability to suppress pro-inflammatory cytokine production, which may inform the development of treatments for diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Primarily utilized in preclinical studies to understand immune response mechanisms and evaluate pharmacological intervention points.
