Diacerein is a chemical compound that functions as an inhibitor of interleukin-1 beta. It exerts its mechanism of action by inhibiting the production of interleukin-1 beta, a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a role in the inflammatory response. By targeting this specific cytokine, diacerein can modulate the inflammatory process at the molecular level. Diacerein interferes with the signaling pathways involved in the production of interleukin-1 beta, thereby reducing its levels and potentially impacting downstream inflammatory processes. In experimental applications, diacerein′s mechanism of action involves its ability to target and inhibit the activity of interleukin-1 beta, contributing to the modulation of inflammatory responses at the cellular and molecular levels.
