Description
DA-E 5090 is deacetylated form of E5090, is pharmacologically active metabolite of E 5090, is interleukin-1 antagonist._x000D_
DA-E 5090 is a novel inhibitor of IL-1 generation, in vitro inhibitory effects on the generation of IL-1 by human monocytes. E5090 is an orally active inhibitor of IL-1 generation, being converted in vivo into the pharmacologically active deacetylated form (DA-E5090). In vitro effects of DA-E5090 on the generation of IL-1 by human monocytes stimulated with LPS were examined. DA-E5090 inhibited both IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta generation by human monocytes stimulated with 1 microgram/ml of LPS in a dose dependent-manner (1-10 microM), as determined by LAF assay and ELISA. Northern blotting analysis indicated that DA-E5090 inhibits transcription of IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta m-RNAs.
Uses
DA-E 5090 is an orally effective inhibitor of IL-1 production that can be converted into a pharmacologically active deacetylated form (DA-E5090) in vivo. In this study, the effects of DA-E5090 on IL-1 production in vitro were examined by LPS-stimulated human monocytes. The results showed that DA-E5090 could dose-dependently inhibit the production of IL-1α and IL-1β (1-10 μM) by LPS-stimulated human monocytes, as determined by LAF assay and ELISA. Northern blotting analysis showed that DA-E5090 inhibited the transcription of IL-1α and IL-1β mRNA.
