| ln Vitro |
Levocabastine hydrochloride (0-1000 μM; HEK-293 cells) suppresses, in a concentration-dependent manner, the binding of 125I-FN to the α4β1 integrin linked with SPA beads (IC50 = 406.2 μm [3]. In vitro, α4β1 integrin/VCAM-1-mediated cell adhesion is inhibited by levocabastine hydrochloride (0-1000 μM; 30 min; Jurkat cells and EoL-1 cells). Levocabastine inhibits the α4β1 integrin-dependent adhesion of Jurkat cells to VCAM-1, exhibiting an IC50 of 395.6 μM, and an IC50 of 403.6 μM for EoL-1 cells. Furthermore, it has been observed that Levocabastine can prevent human eosinophils from adhering to wells coated with VCAM-1 (IC50=443.7 μM) 3.
In vitro, Levocabastine acts as a potent and selective histamine H1-receptor antagonist. It is also a selective, high-affinity neurotensin receptor subtype 2 (NTR2) antagonist, with a Ki of 17 nM for mouse NTR2. The compound's potent and selective H1 receptor antagonist activity has been clinically applied as a topical treatment. |
| ln Vivo |
In guinea pigs infected with the parainfluenza-3 (PI-3) virus, levocarbastine hydrochloride (R 50547; 0.25 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; twice daily for five days) suppresses the hyperresponsiveness of the airways caused by the virus [ 1]. Male C57BL/6J mice were injected intraperitoneally once with 0.05 mg/kg levocarbastine hydrochloride to prevent the anti-stress impact of β-LT on behavior [2]. In ovalbumin-sensitized guinea pigs, levocarbastine hydrochloride (500 µg/eye; eye drops; once) can cause allergic conjunctivitis (AC) and a considerable elevation of conjunctival VLA-4. [3].
In vivo, Levocabastine hydrochloride produces a noteworthy protection from allergic conjunctivitis and prevents the conjunctival elevation of VLA-4 as well as conjunctival eosinophil infiltration. It reduces itching, rhinorrhea, and symptoms of allergic rhinitis or conjunctivitis when applied locally to the eye. Levocabastine is a long-acting antihistamine. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cell receptor binding assays for Levocabastine are performed using membrane preparations from cells expressing histamine H1 receptors or neurotensin receptor subtype 2 (NTR2). Radioligand binding studies are conducted using [³H]mepyramine for H1 or [³H]neurotensin for NTR2 as tracers. Membranes are incubated with the radioligand and varying concentrations of Levocabastine (0.001-100 μM). Nonspecific binding is determined with excess unlabeled mepyramine or neurotensin. After incubation at 25°C for 60 minutes, bound and free ligand are separated by filtration, and radioactivity is counted. Ki values are calculated from competition curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Levocabastine are performed using cells expressing histamine H1 receptors. Cells are treated with Levocabastine at concentrations ranging from 0.001-100 μM. Inhibition of histamine-induced calcium mobilization is measured using fluorescent calcium indicators (e.g., Fluo-4). IC₅₀ values for H1 receptor antagonism are calculated from dose-response curves. Alternatively, inhibition of histamine-induced cAMP accumulation is measured.
