Lu AF27139 (C09-1142-719)

Lu AF27139 is a potent, selective, and orally active antagonist of P2X7 receptor ( IC 50 s of 12 and 2.4 nM for human and rat, K i s of 22, 54, and 13 nM for mouse, human, and rat, respectively). Lu AF27139 has rodent-active and CNS-penetrant character. Lu AF27139 has the potential for the research of CNS diseasesIn VitroLu AF27139 (compound 1) (10-200 nM) inhibits 100 μM BzATP-induced current in HEK293 cells stably transfected with the rat P2X7R in a dose response manner with an IC 50 of 66 nM. Lu AF27139 (compound 1) (100 nM) inhibits 300 μM BzATPinduced current in primary rat microglia with 80% inhibition occurring at a 100 nM dose. Lu AF27139 (compound 1) inhibits LPS-primed and BzATP-induced IL-1β release from THP-1 cells with an IC 50 of 38 ± 2.5 nM. Lu AF27139 (compound 1) concentration-dependently blocks IL-1β release in rat and mouse primary cortical microglia primed with LPS and induces with 1 mM BzATP with IC50’s of 38 ± 19 nM in rat and 26 ± 6 nM in mice. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.In VivoLu AF27139 (compound 1) (p.o.; 3, 10, and 100 mg/kg) reduces intracerebroventricular (icv) administered LPS-primed and BzATP-triggered IL-1β release in the frontal cortex of rats and mice .

Values are expressed as mean ± SEM for n = 3 animals. f u , plasma = 0.02 ± 0.00, f u , spinal cord = 0.07 ± 0.03, and f u , brain = 0.09 ± 0.03. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM for n ≥ 3 experiments. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
