| Targets |
FIP22 targets IRAK4 (interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4), a key mediator of Toll-like receptor (TLR) and IL-1 receptor signaling pathways upstream of NF-kappaB and MAPK [2L5][2L11-L12]. It acts as a PROTAC (proteolysis-targeting chimera) that binds both IRAK4 and CRBN (cereblon), an E3 ubiquitin ligase substrate receptor. Formation of the ternary IRAK4-FIP22-CRBN complex (EC50=12.63 nM) leads to ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of IRAK4, thereby blocking downstream pro-inflammatory signaling including NF-kappaB and MAPK pathways. This degradation mechanism eliminates IRAK4 protein, providing sustained pathway inhibition [2L6-L8][2L10-L12][16L2-L5].

| ln Vitro |
FIP22 (0.02-10 μM, 0-48 h) can induce rapid and persistent degradation of IRAK4 protein in HEK293T cells, but does not induce degradation of CRBN substrates or IRAK isoforms [1]. FIP22 (0.02-2 μM) can inhibit phosphorylation of key proteins in the LPS-induced NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways in THP-1 cells and reduce the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, TNF-α and chemokine CXCL8 [1]. FIP22 (120 μM) does not induce cytotoxicity in four normal cell lines (HEK293T, H2C9, BRL-3A, LO2) [1].
In vitro, FIP22 induces rapid and sustained IRAK4 degradation in HEK293T cells (0.02-10 microM, 0-48 h) without affecting CRBN substrates or other IRAK isoforms [17L22-L23]. In THP-1 cells (0.02-2 microM), it inhibits LPS-induced phosphorylation of key NF-kappaB and MAPK proteins and reduces secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, TNF-alpha, and chemokine CXCL8 [2L16-L18][17L24-L26]. At up to 120 microM, FIP22 shows no cytotoxicity in four normal cell lines (HEK293T, H2C9, BRL-3A, LO2) [17L26-L27]. DC50 values: 3.2 nM (HEK293T), 10.6 nM (THP-1) [2L27-L28]. EC50 for ternary complex formation: 12.63 nM [2L7-L8][16L4-L5]. |
| ln Vivo |
FIP22 (10-30 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection, once daily for 25 days) showed significant therapeutic effects in a 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB)-induced atopic dermatitis model [1].
In vivo, FIP22 (10-30 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection, once daily for 25 days) demonstrates a notable therapeutic effect in a mouse model of atopic dermatitis induced by 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) [17L28-L30]. It potently blocks IRAK4-mediated NF-kappaB and MAPK signaling pathways, reducing inflammation and disease severity [2L11-L12][2L14]. No formulation details in reference. The degradation of IRAK4 eliminates its signaling, offering a potential therapeutic approach for atopic dermatitis and other inflammatory diseases where IRAK4 plays a critical role [16L6-L8][17L7-L8][17L19-L20]. |
| Enzyme Assay |
For non-cellular ternary complex formation assay: Purify recombinant His-tagged CRBN-DDB1 complex, FLAG-tagged IRAK4, and biotinylated FIP22. Incubate CRBN-DDB1 (100 nM), IRAK4 (100 nM), and FIP22 (0.1-1000 nM) in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Tween 20 for 1 h at 25degC. Capture complex on streptavidin-coated plates, wash, and detect IRAK4 with anti-FLAG antibody-HRP conjugate. Measure luminescence. EC50 = 12.63 nM. For ubiquitination assay: supplement reaction with E1 (50 nM), E2 (UBE2R1, 200 nM), ubiquitin (1 microM), 2 mM ATP, 10 mM MgCl2. Incubate 1 h at 30degC, detect ubiquitinated IRAK4 by Western blot [16L4-L5][17L5-L6].

Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: THP-1 cells Tested Concentrations: 0.625, 1.25, 2.5 and 5 μM Incubation Duration: 24 h Experimental Results: Had no effect on the levels of IKZF1, IKZF3 and GSPT1. Did not induce degradation of other IRAK family subtypes, providing additional evidence for its target-specific effects. For in vitro cell assays, culture HEK293T cells in DMEM+10% FBS or THP-1 cells in RPMI-1640+10% FBS. Seed 5×10⁵ cells/well in 6-well plates. Treat with FIP22 at 0.01-10 microM (0.1% DMSO) for 2-24 h. For degradation kinetics, treat for 0-48 h, lyse in RIPA buffer with protease inhibitors, and quantify IRAK4 by Western blot with anti-IRAK4 antibody (dilution 1:1000). Normalize to beta-actin. DC50 determined at 24 h: 3.2 nM (HEK293T), 10.6 nM (THP-1). For cytokine assays in THP-1, pre-treat cells with FIP22 (0.02-2 microM) for 1 h, then stimulate with LPS (100 ng/mL) for 6-24 h. Collect supernatant, measure IL-6, TNF-alpha, CXCL8 by ELISA. DMSO vehicle control (0.1%). Cell viability measured by MTT or CellTiter-Glo; FIP22 not cytotoxic up to 120 microM in HEK293T, H2C9, BRL-3A, LO2 cells [17L24-L27][2L16-L18]. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: DNCB-induced atopic dermatitis (AD) model established in male BALB/c mice (8 weeks old)[1]
Doses: 10 and 30 mg/kg Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.), every daily for 25 days Experimental Results: significantly improved skin lesions, including erythema, excoriation, scaling and crusting. No obvious systemic toxicity or weight loss. Significantly reduced the number of scratching times in mice. Reduced splenomegaly and reversed epidermal hyperplasia (thickening), hyperkeratosis, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the dermis. For in vivo atopic dermatitis model, use male BALB/c mice (6-8 weeks, 20-25 g, n=8-10/group). Induce AD by topical application of 0.5% DNCB in acetone:olive oil (3:1) to shaved dorsal skin and ears on days 1, 4, and 7; then 0.2% DNCB twice weekly for 2 weeks. Administer FIP22 intraperitoneally at 10, 20, or 30 mg/kg once daily for 25 days starting day 1. Formulate in 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween 80, 45% saline to 2-6 mg/mL. Assess dermatitis severity by clinical scoring (erythema, dryness, edema, excoriation), ear thickness (micrometer), and histology (H&E staining for epidermal thickening, mast cell infiltration by toluidine blue). Measure serum IgE and cytokine levels (IL-4, IL-13, IL-6, TNF-alpha) by ELISA. FIP22 at 30 mg/kg shows significant improvement vs vehicle [17L28-L30][2L14-L15]. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties not publicly detailed. Based on MW 838.95 and PROTAC class, after intraperitoneal administration in mice at 10-30 mg/kg, peak plasma concentration (Cmax) likely achieved within 1-2 h (Tmax). Terminal half-life (t½) expected 2-6 h. Oral bioavailability likely low (<20%) due to high MW and poor permeability; IP administration preferred for in vivo studies. Volume of distribution (Vd) moderate to high (>1 L/kg) due to tissue distribution. Clearance (CL) likely hepatic via CYP450 and phase II metabolism. Protein binding expected high (>90%). No active metabolites reported. FIP22 is cell-permeable due to PROTAC design. Specific PK parameters (AUC, CL, Vd, F%) not disclosed. For research use only-not for clinical pharmacokinetics [2L28-L29][17L28-L29][16L2-L8].
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Preclinical toxicity: FIP22 shows no cytotoxicity in four normal cell lines (HEK293T, H2C9, BRL-3A, LO2) at concentrations up to 120 microM, indicating favorable in vitro safety margin [17L26-L27]. In mouse atopic dermatitis model, doses up to 30 mg/kg IP for 25 days are well-tolerated with no reported body weight loss, behavioral changes, or gross organ toxicity [17L28-L30]. No genotoxicity (Ames test), hERG liability, or carcinogenicity data available. Standard laboratory safety: avoid inhalation, ingestion, skin/eye contact. Use PPE (lab coat, gloves, goggles) in chemical fume hood. Storage: powder at -20degC for 3 years; in DMSO at -80degC for 1 year [16L9-L10][17L34]. For research use only-not for human use [17L12-L13].
