AZD1981, as a potent antagonist in a disease relevant cell system, inhibits DK-PGD2-induced CD11b expression in human eosinophils with IC50 of 10 nM. AZD1981 blocks DP2-mediated shape change in human eosinophils and basophils in blood, as well as DP2-mediated chemotaxis of human Th2 cells and eosinophils. Moreover, AZD1981 also blocks the binding of [3H]PGD2 to mouse, rat, guinea pig, rabbit and dog recombinant DP2.
Kinase Assay: AZD1981 is a novel potent and selective CRTh2 (DP2) receptor antagonist with IC50 of 4 nM, it displayed >1000-fold selectivity over more than 340 other enzymes and receptors, including DP1. Cell Assay: AZD1981 could block chemotaxis of DP2+ T-cell lines with a pIC50 value of 7.5±0.1. AZD1981 has been demonstrated to inhibit PGD2 binding to mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, guinea pig and human DP2. AZD1981 could inhibit shape change induced by DP2 in dog and guinea pig granulocytes as well as in human eosinophils and basophils in blood. AZD1981 displaced [3H]PGD2 from human recombinant DP2 with high potency (pIC50 = 8.4, mean IC50 = 4 nM); binding was reversible and non-competitive (pIC50 unchanged from 0.5 nM to 50 nM radioligand).[1] AZD1981 inhibited DP2-mediated CD11b up-regulation in human eosinophils with non-competitive antagonism, yielding pKB = 8.55 ± 0.03 (n=3) from operational model fitting.[1] AZD1981 inhibited DP2-mediated shape change in human eosinophils in blood (1 μM caused 20-fold rightward shift, pA2 = 7.3 ± 0.02, n=4) and in human basophils (1 μM caused 70-fold rightward shift, pA2 = 7.5 ± 0.47, n=5).[1] AZD1981 inhibited DP2-mediated chemotaxis of human eosinophils (pIC50 = 7.6 ± 0.1, n=4) and human Th2 cells (pIC50 = 7.5 ± 0.1, n=5) using single submaximal agonist concentrations.[1] AZD1981 showed cross-species binding to mouse, rat, guinea pig, rabbit and dog DP2 with pIC50 values: human 8.4, rat 8.5, mouse 8.1, dog 8.1, guinea pig 7.8, rabbit 8.7.[1] AZD1981 blocked DP2-mediated shape change in guinea pig eosinophils (pA2 = 6.9 ± 0.12, n=5) and dog eosinophils (pIC50 = 7.5 ± 0.4, n=6) in whole blood.[1] |
| ln Vivo |
Using the previously described guinea pig hind limb model , 10 nM AZD1981 significantly inhibited DK-PGD2-induced eosinophil mobilization by approximately 50%, and the response was completely inhibited with 100 nM AZD1981. AZD1981 exhibited good cross-species binding activity against mouse, rat, guinea pig, rabbit and dog DP2 . Evaluation in mouse, rat or rabbit cell systems was not possible as they did not respond to DP2 agonists. Agonist responses were seen in guinea pig and dog, and AZD1981 blocked DP2 -mediated eosinophil shape change. Such responses were more robust in the guinea pig, where AZD1981 also blocked DP2 -dependent eosinophil emigration from bone marrow. AZD1981 has high oral bioavailability in male sprague dawley rats. In guinea pig hind limb model, AZD1981 (100 nM) completely inhibits DK-PGD2-induced eosinophil mobilization.
In isolated perfused guinea pig hind limb, AZD1981 at 10 nM significantly inhibited DK-PGD2 (30 nM)-induced eosinophil mobilization from bone marrow by approximately 50%, and 100 nM completely inhibited the response (p<0.05 vs vehicle by two-way ANOVA for repeated measurements, n=5-7).[1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Radioligand binding assay using scintillation proximity assay (SPA): Membranes from HEK293 cells expressing recombinant human DP2 were prebound to wheat germ agglutinin-coated PVT-SPA beads for 18 h at 4°C. Assays started by adding membrane-coated beads (10 mg/mL) to assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH7.4, 5 mM MgCl2) containing 2-5 nM [3H]PGD2 in absence or presence of increasing compound concentrations (50 μL final volume). Non-specific binding determined with 10 μM DK-PGD2. Plates incubated 2 h at room temperature, bead-associated radioactivity measured. IC50 was calculated.[1]
Reversibility binding assay: HEK-membrane-coated beads incubated with AZD1981 for 2 h at room temperature, then centrifuged and washed four times with assay buffer. Aliquots transferred to 96-well plates, [3H]PGD2 binding evaluated as above. Recovery of binding observed within 13 min after compound removal.[1] Competition binding across species: Same methodology used for recombinant human, murine, rat, guinea pig, dog and rabbit DP2.[1] Enzyme inhibition assays for aldose and aldehyde reductase: Human recombinant enzymes were used. Assays performed in UV-clear 96-well plates (200 μL final volume). Each well contained AZD1981, recombinant enzyme (10 μg/mL aldose reductase in 5 mM sodium phosphate pH7.5 with 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, or 2.5 μg/mL aldehyde reductase in 5 mM sodium phosphate pH7.5), substrate (0.2 mM DL-glyceraldehyde for aldose reductase or 2 mM D-glucuronic acid for aldehyde reductase) and 0.2 mM NADPH in 0.1 M sodium phosphate pH7.0. Reaction rate measured by monitoring decrease in absorbance at 340 nm.[1] |

CD11b up-regulation assay in human eosinophils from mixed leukocyte preparation: Granulocytes from healthy volunteers were washed and resuspended at 3.5×10^6 cells/mL in HBSS/HEPES. AZD1981 or vehicle pre-incubated with cells for 15 min, then antibody mix (FITC-anti-human CD11b and PE-anti-human CD16) and agonist (DK-PGD2) added. Incubated 15 min at 37°C, fixed with ice-cold autologous plasma and formaldehyde, then red blood cell lysis. CD11b expression measured by flow cytometry (median peak fluorescence). Eosinophils gated by forward/side scatter and low CD16 expression.[1]
Human eosinophil shape change assay in whole blood: Blood from healthy volunteers pre-treated with AZD1981 or vehicle for 60 min at room temperature. Then 15R-methyl PGD2 or vehicle added, incubated 15 min at 37°C, fixed with Optilys B, lysed with water, centrifuged, resuspended in PBS with Cyto-Chex. Shape change analysed by flow cytometry; eosinophils gated by forward/side scatter and high autofluorescence.[1] Human basophil shape change assay: Whole blood labelled with FITC-HLA-DR and PE-CD123 monoclonal antibodies, pre-incubated with vehicle or AZD1981 for 10 min at 37°C, then stimulated with PGD2 for 4 min at 37°C. Samples fixed, red blood cells lysed with NH4Cl, washed, resuspended. Basophils gated as CD123-positive and HLA-DR-negative, responses quantified as percentage of cells moving into higher forward scatter gate.[1] Chemotaxis assay for human eosinophils: Purified human eosinophils used. AZD1981 tested against single concentration of PGD2 (1 μM). Cells applied to upper surface of 96-well ChemoTx plates (5 μm pore size). Lower wells contained agonist. Incubated 1 h at 37°C/5% CO2, migrated cells quantified by cell-associated LDH using a commercial kit.[1] Chemotaxis assay for human Th2 cells: DP2+ T-cell lines expanded from peripheral blood of healthy volunteers using anti-CD3/anti-CD28 beads and IL-2. Cells applied to upper surface of ChemoTx plates, lower wells contained DK-PGD2 (330 nM). AZD1981 present in both upper and lower solutions. Incubated 1 h at 37°C/5% CO2, migrated cells quantified by LDH.[1] |

10 nM Guinea pig hind limb model
Isolated perfused guinea pig hind limb model: Eosinophil mobilization measured as described previously (Royer et al., 2008). Briefly, guinea pig hind limb was perfused with buffer containing AZD1981 or vehicle throughout the experiment. DK-PGD2 (30 mM) was added during the 20 to 40 min period. Eosinophil release was measured over time (0-80 min). AZD1981 at 10 nM and 100 nM significantly inhibited DK-PGD2-induced eosinophil mobilization in a concentration-dependent manner.[1] |

| Additional Infomation |
AZD1981 has been used in research on the treatment and basic scientific trials of asthma, postmenopause, pharmacokinetics, asthma patients, and drug interactions.
AZD1981 is a reversible, non-competitive DP2 antagonist derived from indomethacin scaffold (indomethacin showed partial agonist activity at DP2). It binds to a site distinct from PGD2, precluding agonist binding and activation.[1] The compound is an indole acetic acid with high aqueous solubility, moderately low logD, and high plasma protein binding.[1] AZD1981 shows no inhibition of COX-1 or COX-2, and no significant activity at other receptors/enzymes (including CCR3, CCR4, TP receptor) in a panel of >338 targets.[1] Insurmountable antagonism observed in eosinophil CD11b assay, while surmountable antagonism in shape change assays due to higher receptor reserve or higher efficacy agonist (15R-methyl PGD2).[1] AZD1981 is under clinical evaluation as a potential therapeutic agent in respiratory diseases including asthma.[1] |
