Product Description
TrkA-IN-3 is a potent and subselective allosteric inhibitor of TrkA with IC50 of 22.4 nM. TrkA-IN-3 is 8000-fold selective for TrkA over TrkB and TrkC. TrkA-IN-3 may be utilized to study pain.
TrkA-IN-3 is a potent, sub-selective, and allosteric inhibitor of tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA), with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 22.4 nM [22L15-L16]. The compound has a molecular formula of C24H17F3N4O3 and a molecular weight of 466.41 [21L3-L4]. TrkA-IN-3 has an extremely high selectivity for TrkA over other family members, making it a valuable tool for research in pain signaling and diseases related to nerve growth factor (NGF) signaling.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
TrkA 22.4 nM (IC50)
TrkA-IN-3 specifically targets the TrkA receptor, a receptor tyrosine kinase within the neuronal signaling pathway [21L4-L5]. As a potent and subselective inhibitor, it binds to TrkA with extremely high specificity, blocking its activation by NGF. This inhibition disrupts downstream signaling cascades crucial for pain perception, neuronal survival, and differentiation, positioning TrkA-IN-3 as a key research tool for conditions involving aberrant TrkA activity, such as chronic pain and certain cancers.
ln Vitro
Compound 5 (TrkA-IN-3) showed 73.9% and 64.8% inhibitory rates against TrkA at 1 μM and 0.1 μM, respectively [1].
In in vitro kinase inhibition assays, TrkA-IN-3 (compound 5) demonstrates 73.9% and 64.8% inhibition of TrkA activity at concentrations of 1 microM and 0.1 microM, respectively [22L19-L21]. Its potency is confirmed by its low IC50 value of 22.4 nM against TrkA, and it has been shown to be more than 8000-fold selective for TrkA over the closely related family members TrkB and TrkC [22L15-L18]. This high selectivity minimizes off-target effects, making it a highly specific tool for studying TrkA biology.
ln Vivo
In vivo efficacy data for TrkA-IN-3 is derived from its use in pain research. While a prodrug (TrkA-IN-4) is often used for in vivo administration, the active form, TrkA-IN-3, is responsible for the potent antinociceptive effects observed. The compound and its related prodrug have been shown to be effective in animal models of pain, validating that selective inhibition of TrkA is a viable strategy for pain relief. The IC50 of 22.4 nM indicates the high potency required for observable effects in vivo.
Enzyme Assay
To perform a cell-free binding assay for TrkA-IN-3, a TR-FRET or ELISA-based kinase assay is commonly used. The assay typically involves incubating a purified, active recombinant TrkA enzyme with a biotinylated peptide substrate in a reaction buffer (e.g., 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.01% Brij-35). TrkA-IN-3 is added at a range of concentrations along with 10 microM ATP. After incubation, the reaction is stopped with EDTA. The phosphorylated substrate is detected using a donor (e.g., europium-labeled anti-phosphotyrosine antibody) and an acceptor (e.g., streptavidin-APC) to calculate the IC50 via the TR-FRET signal.
Cell Assay
A standard cell-based assay to assess the activity of TrkA-IN-3 involves treating neuroblastoma or TrkA-expressing cancer cells (e.g., SH-SY5Y, IMR-32, or Ba/F3-TrkA cells). Cells are plated in 96-well plates and treated with a dilution series of the compound (e.g., 0.01-10000 nM) for a specific duration (typically 72 hours). Cell viability is then measured using a luminescent cell viability assay (e.g., CellTiter-Glo 2.0). Inhibition of TrkA autophosphorylation can also be directly measured by Western blotting after a shorter incubation (e.g., 2 hours) with the compound, followed by stimulation with NGF for 10 minutes.
Animal Protocol
In vivo studies of TrkA-IN-3 are commonly conducted using its prodrug, TrkA-IN-4, in rodent pain models. A typical protocol for pain assessment is the hot plate test. Male KM mice (20-24 g) are administered TrkA-IN-4 orally at doses ranging from 0.9375 to 120 mg/kg. At 3 hours post-administration, each mouse is placed on a hot plate (55 +/- 0.5degC), and the latency for the mouse to lick its hind paw or jump is recorded with a cutoff time of 30 seconds to prevent tissue damage. The median effective dose (ED50) for the antinociceptive effect of the active TrkA-IN-3 is calculated from these data [19L25-L29].
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetics of the active moiety, TrkA-IN-3, are best characterized via its prodrug, TrkA-IN-4. The prodrug is administered orally, after which it is rapidly absorbed and metabolized to release the active TrkA-IN-3. The pharmacokinetic parameters can be determined by dosing rodents orally, collecting blood at various time points (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours), and using an LC-MS/MS method to quantify both the remaining prodrug and the generated TrkA-IN-3 in plasma. The resulting plasma concentration-time curve is used to calculate parameters such as Cmax, Tmax, half-life, and AUC.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Formal toxicity data for TrkA-IN-3 is not publicly available. As a research chemical, standard handling precautions should be observed to avoid exposure. In the context of a drug discovery program, the safety profile of a TrkA-IN-3 would be assessed through a series of standard in vitro and in vivo toxicology assays. This would include an Ames test for genotoxicity, a hERG assay to assess potential for cardiac arrhythmia, and repeated-dose toxicity studies in two species (rodent and non-rodent) following oral administration, with monitoring for clinical signs, body weight, and histopathology.
