Product Description
TIM-3-IN-1 represents a useful tool for further investigation of the biology of TIM-3 immunomodulation in cancer.
TIM-3-IN-1 (Compound 38) is a small molecule inhibitor targeting T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing-3 (TIM-3). It is designed for cancer research, specifically to overcome TIM-3-mediated immune suppression and enhance anti-tumor immunity. This inhibitor is a useful tool for further investigation of TIM-3 immunomodulation in cancer.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
TIM-3-IN-1 targets TIM-3, an immune checkpoint receptor expressed on T cells, particularly on exhausted T cells in the tumor microenvironment. As an inhibitor, it blocks TIM-3 signaling, which is known to suppress T-cell activation and promote T-cell exhaustion. By inhibiting TIM-3, this compound aims to reinvigorate T-cell function. It is a TIM-3 inhibitor that can be used for the research of cancer.
ln Vitro
Specific in vitro activity data for TIM-3-IN-1, such as IC50 or KD values, is not provided in standard chemical databases. However, it is described as a TIM-3 inhibitor that can be used for the research of cancer. As a research tool, it is expected to block TIM-3 interactions with its ligands (Gal-9, PtdSer, CEACAM1), thereby reversing T-cell exhaustion and enhancing cytokine production (IL-2, IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha) in T-cell activation assays.
ln Vivo
Specific in vivo activity data for TIM-3-IN-1 has not been published. It represents a useful tool for further investigation of the biology of TIM-3 immunomodulation in cancer. Based on its mechanism, it is hypothesized to inhibit tumor growth in syngeneic mouse models (e.g., CT26, MC38, B16-F10) by enhancing CD8+ T-cell infiltration and function, and may show synergistic effects with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
Enzyme Assay
The specific protocol for evaluating TIM-3-IN-1 binding would involve a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or microscale thermophoresis (MST) binding assay. Recombinant human TIM-3 protein is immobilized on a sensor chip. TIM-3-IN-1 is serially diluted (0.01 uM to 100 uM) and injected over the chip. Association and dissociation kinetics are monitored. KD values are determined by fitting the sensorgrams to a 1:1 binding model. Alternatively, a competition ELISA can be performed using immobilized TIM-3 and biotinylated Gal-9.
Cell Assay
For in vitro cellular assays, primary human CD8+ T cells are isolated from healthy donor PBMCs using magnetic negative selection. T cells are activated with anti-CD3/CD28 beads (1:1 ratio) and cultured in the presence of TIM-3 ligand-expressing cells (e.g., Gal-9-expressing L cells). TIM-3-IN-1 is added at concentrations of 1, 5, 10, and 20 uM. After 72 hours, cell culture supernatants are collected for IFN-gamma and IL-2 quantification by ELISA. T-cell proliferation is assessed by [3H]-thymidine incorporation during the final 18 hours of culture. The ability of TIM-3-IN-1 to rescue T-cell function is measured as increased proliferation and cytokine production compared to control.
Animal Protocol
An in vivo protocol for TIM-3-IN-1 would involve the MC38 syngeneic colon carcinoma model in C57BL/6 mice. Mice are implanted subcutaneously with 5×10⁵ MC38 cells. When tumors reach 50-100 mm3, mice are randomized into groups. TIM-3-IN-1 is administered intraperitoneally at doses of 5-30 mg/kg in a formulation such as 10% DMSO/40% PEG400/50% saline, given daily or every other day for 14 days. Anti-PD-1 antibody (10 mg/kg, i.p.) can be administered in combination groups. Tumor volumes are measured every 2-3 days with calipers. At termination, tumors are collected for flow cytometry analysis of CD8+ T-cell infiltration and exhaustion markers (TIM-3, PD-1, LAG-3).
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Detailed PK data for TIM-3-IN-1 is not available. As a small molecule inhibitor, a standard oral PK study in C57BL/6 mice would be conducted. TIM-3-IN-1 would be administered at 10 mg/kg by oral gavage. Blood samples would be collected at multiple time points up to 24 hours. Plasma concentrations would be determined by LC-MS/MS. Key parameters including T1/2, Cmax, Tmax, AUC, and oral bioavailability would be calculated.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicology data for TIM-3-IN-1 is not available. As an immune checkpoint inhibitor, the primary safety concern is immune-related adverse events (irAEs). These could include immune-mediated pneumonitis, colitis, hepatitis, and dermatitis due to non-specific T-cell activation. Standard safety assessment would include in vitro hERG channel testing, CYP450 inhibition screening, and a 7-day repeat-dose toxicity study in mice to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).
