| Targets |
Eicosatetraynoic acid targets cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes, which are key enzymes in the arachidonic acid cascade that produce prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes. COX and LOX are involved in inflammation, pain, and platelet aggregation. By inhibiting both COX and LOX, ETYA blocks the production of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids. The compound also activates PPARalpha and PPARgamma chimeras at 10 microM, indicating activity at nuclear receptors involved in lipid metabolism and inflammation. ETYA specifically interferes with the replication of cowpox virus both in vivo and in vitro.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Eicosatetraynoic acid inhibits cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase with IC₅0 values of 8 microM and 4 microM, respectively. The compound is a nonspecific inhibitor of arachidonic acid metabolism. At 10 microM, ETYA activates PPARalpha and PPARgamma chimeras. The compound contains an alkyne group, enabling click chemistry applications for labeling and detection. ETYA also specifically interferes with the replication of cowpox virus both in vivo and in vitro, suggesting antiviral activity. The compound is used in research to study lipid signaling, inflammation, and viral infection.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Eicosatetraynoic acid has been shown to interfere with the replication of cowpox virus. The compound's inhibition of arachidonic acid metabolism supports studies of lipid signaling during viral infection and host-virus interactions. ETYA enables exploration of prostaglandin-mediated modulation of immune responses. However, specific in vivo efficacy data, pharmacokinetic profiles, and dosing regimens are limited in publicly available sources. The compound is sensitive to air and light and should be handled accordingly. It is intended for research use only.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for Eicosatetraynoic acid involve measuring COX and LOX enzyme activities. For COX assays, the enzyme (COX-1 or COX-2) is incubated with arachidonic acid substrate and varying concentrations of ETYA (0.1-100 microM) in assay buffer at 37degC for 5-10 minutes. The reaction is stopped, and prostaglandin products (PGE2, PGF2alpha, TXB2) are quantified by ELISA or LC-MS/MS. IC₅0 values for COX inhibition are determined from dose-response curves. For LOX assays, lipoxygenase is incubated with arachidonic acid and ETYA, and products (5-HETE, 12-HETE, 15-HETE) are quantified by HPLC or LC-MS/MS. IC₅0 values for LOX inhibition are calculated.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Eicosatetraynoic acid are performed using immune cells such as macrophages (RAW 264.7) or platelets. Cells are cultured in appropriate medium and seeded in 6- or 96-well plates. Cells are treated with serial dilutions of ETYA (0.1-100 microM) for 1-2 hours prior to stimulation with LPS (macrophages) or arachidonic acid (platelets). Prostaglandin and leukotriene levels in culture supernatants are measured by ELISA or LC-MS/MS. Cell viability is assessed by MTT assay. PPAR activation is assessed using a luciferase reporter assay in cells transfected with PPAR response element (PPRE)-luciferase constructs.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for Eicosatetraynoic acid are conducted in models of inflammation, pain, and viral infection. In typical protocols, mice or rats are administered ETYA intraperitoneally or orally at doses of 10-100 mg/kg. In inflammatory models (e.g., carrageenan-induced paw edema), paw swelling is measured. In pain models, pain behaviors are assessed. In viral infection models (e.g., cowpox virus), viral titers and survival are monitored. Arachidonic acid metabolites in plasma and tissues are measured by LC-MS/MS. Pharmacokinetic parameters are determined from plasma samples. Efficacy is compared to vehicle control and standard anti-inflammatory agents.
