• Beschreibung

  Rapamycin is a member of the macrolide immunosuppressant family and a FRAP inhibitor. Rapamycin exhibits binding and inhibitory actions to the FK506 binding protein (FKBP5) proline rotamase via simultaneous binding by FKBP12 and FRAP. FRAP (RAFT1) proteins exhibit homology to PI 4- and PI 3-kinases, which have PI 4-kinase and autophosphorylating activities. The rapamycin/FKBP complex does not inhibit the FRAP PI 4-kinase activity, but does inhibit FRAP autophosphorylation. Rapamycin is unique in its ability to inhibit lymphokine induced cell proliferation at the G1 and S phase as well as an irreversible cellular arrest at the G1 phase in S. cerevisiae cells. Rapamycin also exhibits selective signal blocking leading to the activation of p70/85 S6 kinase, which is potentially due to the inhibition of FRAP autophosphorylation or protein kinase activity. Rapamycin also exhibits Angiogenesis inhibition, possibly through the inhibition of the Akt pathway. Rapamycin is an inhibitor of mTOR. Rapamycin is also known as Rapamune, 23,27-Epoxy-3H-pyrido[2,1-c] oxaazacyclohentriacontine, AY 22989, and mTOR Inhibitor I.

• Occurrence

  Rapamycin was first discovered in 1972 in the soil of Easter Island produced by a bacterium called Streptomyces hygroscopicus. It takes its name from Rapa Nui, the indigenous name for the island. It is known clinically as sirolimus or Rapamune.

• Verwenden

  Rapamycin is an immunosuppressant that is used primarily to prevent the rejection of organ and bone marrow transplant. It was first described as a potent inhibitor of IL-2 activation of lymphocytes (IC50 = 5 pM). It is now known that rapamycin specifically interacts with the cytosolic FK-binding protein 12 (FKBP12) to form a complex which inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway by directly binding to mTOR Complex 1 (mTORC1). Rapamycin and other inhibitors of mTORC1 signaling show potential in treating cancer, adipogenesis, diabetes, tuberous sclerosis, and cardiovascular disease.[Cayman Chemical]

• Verwenden

  Rapamycin is a triene macrolide discovered in 1995 as a metabolite of Streptomyces hygroscopicus found in a soil obtained on Rapi Nui (Easter Island). Rapamycin displayed potent and selective antifungal activity, notably against Candida albicans. Interest in the metabolite waned until the structural relationship to the potent immunosuppressant fujimycin (Antibiotic FK506) was recognised in the mid-1980s. This recognition led to the re-discovery of rapamycin as a highly selective antitumour and immunosuppressant. Rapamycin inhibits the activity of the protein, mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) which functions in a signalling pathway to promote tumour growth. Rapamycin binds to a receptor protein (FKBP12). The rapamycin/FKB12 complex then binds to mTOR and prevents interaction of mTOR with target proteins in this signalling pathway.

• Indications

  Sirolimus (Rapamune) is structurally related to tacrolimus. It is approved for use as an adjunctive agent in combination with cyclosporine for prevention of acute renal allograft rejection. It blocks IL-2-dependent T-cell proliferation by inhibiting a cytoplasmic serine– threonine kinase. This mechanism of action is different from those of tacrolimus and cyclosporine. This allows sirolimus to augment the immunosuppressive effects of these drugs.

• Indications

  Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine-specific protein kinase in the PI3/PI4-kinase family. mTOR was named after the natural macrolide rapamycin, also known as sirolimus, which was isolated from a soil sample from Easter Island in the 1970s and later evaluated as an immunosuppressive agent. The anticancer activity of rapamycin was discovered in the 1980s, although the mechanismof action and the identification of the rapamycin target, mTOR, were not elucidated until the 1990s. Rapamycin and its macrocyclic analogues, such as temsirolimus (Torisel(R), Wyeth/Pfizer) and everolimus (Afinitor(R), Novartis), are grouped as “rapalogs” that constitute the first-generation mTOR inhibitors.
  Rapamycin was approved by the US FDA in 1999 as an immunosuppressive agent to prevent organ rejection in patients receiving kidney transplants. Although a large number of clinical studies have been performed to evaluate the anticancer activities of sirolimus in different types of cancers, such as invasive bladder cancer, breast cancer, and leukemia, most studies show limited efficacy. Outside oncological indications, sirolimus was approved by FDA for the treatment of a rare progressive lung disease lymphangioleiomyomatosis in 2015. Temsirolimus was approved for the treatment of advanced RCC. Everolimus was approved in the EU for the prevention of organ rejection in heart and kidney transplant recipients before FDA approved it in 2009 for the treatment of advanced RCC resistant to sunitinib or sorafenib and for the treatment of advanced or metastatic gastrointestinal and lung tumors in 2016. Additionally, rapamycin and rapalogs are being investigated as antiaging therapeutics or for the treatment of age-related diseases. Studies have revealed that mTOR activity can be retained under hypoxic conditions via mutations in the PI3K pathway, leading to increased translation and hypoxic gene expression and tumor progression.

• Definition

  ChEBI: A macrolide isolated from Streptomyces hygroscopicus consisting of a 29-membered ring containing 4 trans double bonds, three of which are conjugated. It is an antibiotic, immunosupressive and antineoplastic agent.

• Manufacturing Process

  Streptomyces hygroscopicus NRRL 5491 was grown and maintained on oatmeal-tomato paste agar slants (T. G. Pridham et al.; Antibiotic Annual 1956-1957, Medical Encyclopedia Inc., New York, p. 947) and in Roux bottles containing the same medium. Good growth was obtained after 7 days of incubation at 28°C. Spores from one Roux bottle were washed off and suspended into 50 ml of sterile distilled water. This suspension was used to inoculate the first stage inoculum.The first-stage inoculum medium consisted of Emerson broth [R. L. Emerson et al., J. Bacteriol, 52, 357 (1946)] 0.4% peptone, 0.4% sodium chloride, 0.25% yeast extract and 1% glucose; pH 7.0; flasks containing the above medium were inoculated with 1 % of the spore suspension described above. The inoculated flasks were incubated for 30 hours at 28°C on a reciprocating shaker set at 65 r.p.m. (4 inch stroke).
  Production stage
  The production stage was run in 250-liter New Brunswick fermenters Model F- 250, equipped with automatic antifoam addition system and pH recordercontroller. The fermenters were charged with 160 L of an aqueous production medium consisting of the following constituents: 1.0% soluble starch; 0.5% (NH4)2SO4; 0.5% K2HPO4; 1.5% glucose (Cerelose); 0.025% MgSO4; 0.005% ZnSO4; 0.001% MnSO4; 0.002% FeSO47H2O; 0.2% CaCO3; 0.5% "Blackstrap" molasses; 0.5% hydrolyzed casein; 0.2% lard oil; pH 7.1 to 7.3 of first stage inoculum. Incubation temperature: 28°C; aeration: 0.5 vol/vol/min; agitation: 250 r.p.m. The fermenters were sterilized at 121°C for 45 min, cooled and inoculated with one flask inoculum).
  A titre of ca. 20 μg/ml, determined by microbiological assay on agar plates seeded with Candida albicans, was reached in 5 days. The fermentation was stopped. The fermentation mixture was extracted twice with 1 v/v of nbutanol. The combined butanol extracts were washed with 1 v/v of water, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure to yield a residue. The oily residue was extracted 3 times with 2 L of methanol. The combined methanol extracts were passed through diatomaceous earth (Celite) and evaporated to dryness to yield an oily residue containing crude Rapamycin.

• Allgemeine Beschreibung

  Rapamycin is an anti-fungal antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces hygroscopicus. This antibiotic is active against all strains of Candida albicans. It blocks the signal transduction pathways required for the activation of T-helper cells.

• Biologische Aktivität

  Antifungal and immunosuppressant. Specific inhibitor of mTOR (mammalian target of Rapamycin). Complexes with FKBP-12 and binds mTOR inhibiting its activity. Inhibits interleukin-2-induced phosphorylation and activation of p70 S6 kinase.

• Biochem/physiol Actions

  Rapamycin is a macrocyclic triene antibiotic possessing potent immunosuppressant and anticancer activity. It forms a complex with FKBP12 that binds to and inhibits the molecular target of rapamycin (mTOR). mTOR is a member of the phosphoinositide kinase-related kinase (PIKK) family that enhances cellular proliferation via the phosphoinositol 3-kinase/Akt signaling pathway. Inhibition of this pathway by rapamycin blocks downstream elements that result in cell cycle arrest in G1. The effectors of mTOR action include 4EBP1 and S6K1.

• Clinical Use

  Immunosuppressant:
  Prophylaxis of transplant allograft rejection

• in vitro

  Rapamycin (12.5-100 nM; 24 hours) treatment exerts modest inhibitory effect on lung cancer cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner in all cell lines (A549, SPC-A-1, 95D and NCI-H446 cells) tested, achieving about 30-40% reduction in cell proliferation at 100 nM vs. ~10% reduction at 12.5 nM.
  Lung cancer cell line 95D cells are exposed to Rapamycin (10 nM, 20 nM) and RP-56976 (1 nM, 10 nM) alone or in combination (Rapamycin 20 nM+ RP-56976 10 nM). After 24 hours exposure to Rapamycin or RP-56976 alone does not significantly alter the level of expression or phosphorylation of ERK1/2, whereas cells treated with the combination of Rapamycin with RP-56976 exhibit a marked reduction in the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2.

• Arzneimittelwechselwirkung

  Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
  Antibacterials: concentration increased by clarithromycin - avoid; concentration of both drugs increased with erythromycin; concentration reduced by rifampicin and rifabutin - avoid.
  Antifungals: concentration increased by itraconazole, fluconazole, ketoconazole, micafungin, miconazole,posaconazole and voriconazole - avoid with itraconazole, ketoconazole and voriconazole.
  Antivirals: concentration possibly increased by atazanavir, boceprevir and lopinavir; concentration of both drugs increased with telaprevir, reduce dose of sirolimus; concomitant use with dasabuvir plus ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir is not recommended unless the benefits outweigh the risks, if used together administer sirolimus 0.2 mg twice a week (every 3 or 4 days on the same two days each week). Sirolimus blood concentrations should be monitored every 4-7 days until 3 consecutive trough levels have shown stable concentrations of sirolimus. Sirolimus dose and/or dosing frequency should be adjusted as needed.
  Calcium-channel blockers: concentration increased by diltiazem; concentration of both drugs increased with verapamil.
  Ciclosporin: increased absorption of sirolimus - give sirolimus 4 hours after ciclosporin; sirolimus concentration increased; long-term concomitant administration may be associated with deterioration in renal function.
  Cytotoxics: use crizotinib with caution.
  Grapefruit juice: concentration of sirolimus increased - avoid.
  Mycophenolate: concomitant use of mycophenolate and sirolimus increases plasma levels of both sirolimus and mycophenolic acid.

• Stoffwechsel

  Sirolimus is metabolised by the cytochrome P450 isoenzyme CYP3A4. Metabolism occurs by demethylation or hydroxylation, and the majority of a dose is excreted via the faeces.
