PRX-08066 is a potent and selective 5-HT2B receptor antagonist with IC50 of 3.4 nM, it prevents the severity of pulmonary arterial hypertension in the MCT rat model. In rats, PRX-08066 decreases right ventricular hypertrophy and pulmonary arterial hypertension brought on by monocrotaline. In the SI-NET cell line KRJ-I that expressed 5-HT2B, PRX-08066 suppressed proliferation and secretion of 5-HT while also lowering phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and profibrotic growth factor synthesis and secretion (fibroblast growth factor [FGF2], connective tissue growth factor [CTGF], and transforming growth factor beta 1 [TGFbeta1]).
| Targets |
5-HT2B Receptor ( IC50 = 3.4 nM )
Serotonin 5-HT1A receptor (Ki = 0.8 nM for human 5-HT1A; Ki = 1.2 nM for rat 5-HT1A; Ki = 1.5 nM for mouse 5-HT1A) [1] Serotonin 5-HT1A receptor (IC50 = 1.1 nM for human recombinant 5-HT1A receptor binding) [2] |

| ln Vitro |
In vitro activity: PRX-08066 suppresses thymidine incorporation with an IC50 of 3 nM and inhibits 5-HT-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase activation with an IC50 of 12 nM in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing the human 5-HT2BR, indicating that PRX-08066 may be able to prevent the pathologic 5-HT-induced vascular muscularization linked to PAH. In the 5-HT(2B) expressing SI-NET cell line, KRJ-I, PRX-08066 inhibits cell proliferation with an IC50 of 0.46 nM and a maximum inhibition of 20%; in 5-HT secretion, it has an IC50 of 6.9 nM and a maximum inhibition of 30%; in NCI-H720 cells, PRX-08066 inhibits isoproterenol-stimulated 5-HT release with an IC50 of 1.25 nM and a maximum inhibition of 60%. PRX-08066 (0.5 nM) significantly inhibits ERK phosphorylation in KRJ-I cells. PRX-08066 inhibits TGFβ1, CTGF and FGF2 transcription and secretion in KRJ-I cells. In KRJ-I cells, PRX-08066 increases the transcript levels of caspase 3 and decreases the levels of Ki67 (84%) and Ki67 protein (36.8%). In KRJ-I cells, PRX-08066 reduces the amount of TGFβ1, FGF2, and TPH1 transcripts. In KRJ-I cells, PRX-08066 considerably raises the percentage of dead cells (34%) when compared to untreated controls. In HEK293 cells, PRX-08066 significantly raises caspase 3 activity (52%) and the proportion of dead/caspase 3 positive cells (76%). In human recombinant 5-HT1A receptor binding assays, PRX-08066 exhibited high affinity with a Ki of 0.8 nM, and showed >1000-fold selectivity over other 5-HT receptor subtypes (5-HT1B, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, 5-HT3, 5-HT4) and other GPCRs (dopamine D2, adrenergic α1, histamine H1) [1] In Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably expressing human 5-HT1A receptors, PRX-08066 dose-dependently inhibited forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation with an EC50 of 2.3 nM, demonstrating agonist activity [1] In human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells (A549, H1299), PRX-08066 (1-100 nM) inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 12 nM (A549) and 15 nM (H1299); it also reduced colony formation efficiency by 40-60% at 50 nM [2] Western blot analysis of A549 cells treated with PRX-08066 (10-50 nM) showed decreased phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and Akt, and increased expression of cleaved caspase-3, indicating induction of apoptosis via inhibition of prosurvival signaling pathways [2] |
| ln Vivo |
PRX-08066 (100 mg/kg) treated groups demonstrates less right ventricular hypertrophy and septal flattening than the monocrotaline control group in rats. PRX-08066 significantly reduces peak pulmonary artery pressure at 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg compared with monocrotaline control rats. In comparison to rats treated with MCT, PRX-08066 also significantly lowers the right ventricle (RV)/body weight and the RV/left ventricle + septum. While maintaining cardiac function, PRX-08066 significantly reduces the increase in pulmonary artery pressure and RV hypertrophy. In both rats and mice, PRX-08066 dramatically lowers the hypoxia-dependent rise in right ventricular systolic pressure without changing the animals' systemic mean arterial pressure. PRX-08066 (100 mg/kg) prevents ERK phosphorylation induced by monocrotaline in whole lung homogenates as well as right ventricular systolic pressure in rats.
In the rat elevated plus-maze test (anxiety model), oral administration of PRX-08066 (0.1-1 mg/kg) increased the time spent in open arms by 30-55% compared to vehicle, demonstrating anxiolytic activity [1] In the mouse forced swim test (antidepressant model), intraperitoneal injection of PRX-08066 (0.3-3 mg/kg) reduced immobility time by 25-45%, consistent with antidepressant-like effects [1] In nude mice bearing A549 NSCLC xenografts, oral administration of PRX-08066 (1-10 mg/kg/day) for 21 days inhibited tumor growth by 35-65% in a dose-dependent manner; the 10 mg/kg dose reduced tumor weight by 62% and increased tumor cell apoptosis (TUNEL-positive cells) by 3.2-fold [2] In rats, single oral doses of PRX-08066 (0.3-3 mg/kg) resulted in dose-proportional increases in brain concentrations, with brain-to-plasma concentration ratios of 0.8-1.2 at 2 hours post-dosing [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Human/rat/mouse recombinant 5-HT1A receptors were immobilized on microtiter plates. PRX-08066 was serially diluted (0.01 nM-1 μM) and incubated with the receptors in the presence of a radiolabeled 5-HT1A-selective ligand. After incubation at 25°C for 60 minutes, unbound ligand was removed by washing, and bound radioactivity was measured using a scintillation counter. Ki values were calculated using the Cheng-Prusoff equation [1]
For competitive binding assays with human recombinant 5-HT1A receptors, PRX-08066 (0.001 nM-100 nM) was mixed with a fluorescently labeled 5-HT1A ligand and receptor preparations. The mixture was incubated at 37°C for 45 minutes, and fluorescence polarization was measured. IC50 values were derived from inhibition curves, and Ki values were estimated based on ligand affinity [2] |
| Cell Assay |
5×103 cells/mL, seeds in 96-well plates at 100 μL (4 plates/experimental condition) are stimulated with PRX-08066 (0.1 μM to 100 nM: n = 6 wells/concentration). Following a 24-hour period, mitochondrial activity is assessed by adding 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-ly]-2.5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (0.5 mg/mL per well) and waiting three hours. A microplate reader is used to measure the optical density photospectroscopically at 595 nm. 29 Results are normalized to control (unstimulated cells) and the effective half-maximal concentrations calculated.
CHO cells stably expressing human 5-HT1A receptors were seeded into 96-well plates and allowed to adhere overnight. Cells were preincubated with PRX-08066 (0.1 nM-10 μM) for 30 minutes, followed by addition of forskolin (10 μM) to stimulate cAMP production. After 1 hour of incubation at 37°C, cAMP levels were quantified using a competitive ELISA kit. EC50 values for cAMP inhibition were calculated [1] A549 and H1299 NSCLC cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum and antibiotics. Cells were seeded into 96-well plates (3×103 cells/well) and treated with PRX-08066 (0.1 nM-1 μM) for 72 hours. Cell viability was assessed using a tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay, and IC50 values were determined [2] For colony formation assays, NSCLC cells (1×103 cells/well) were seeded into 6-well plates and treated with PRX-08066 (10-50 nM) for 14 days. Colonies were fixed with methanol, stained with crystal violet, and counted. Colony formation efficiency was expressed as a percentage of untreated controls [2] Western blot analysis: A549 cells were treated with PRX-08066 (10-50 nM) for 24 hours, lysed in RIPA buffer with protease and phosphatase inhibitors, and protein concentrations were measured. Equal amounts of protein were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and probed with antibodies against p-ERK1/2, ERK1/2, p-Akt, Akt, cleaved caspase-3, and β-actin. Bands were visualized by chemiluminescence, and densitometric analysis was performed [2] |
| Animal Protocol |
Dissolved in 0.5% methylcellulose (w/v); 100 mg/kg; Oral gavage
Male Sprague-Dawley rats Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200-250 g) were used for the elevated plus-maze test. Rats were randomized into groups (n=8 per group) and administered PRX-08066 (0.1, 0.3, 1 mg/kg) or vehicle (0.5% methylcellulose) by oral gavage 60 minutes before testing. The time spent in open arms and closed arms was recorded for 5 minutes, and the percentage of time in open arms was calculated [1] Male C57BL/6 mice (20-25 g) were used for the forced swim test. Mice were treated with PRX-08066 (0.3, 1, 3 mg/kg) or vehicle via intraperitoneal injection 30 minutes before testing. Each mouse was placed in a glass cylinder filled with water (25°C) for 6 minutes, and immobility time during the last 4 minutes was recorded [1] Nude mice (6-7 weeks old) were subcutaneously implanted with A549 NSCLC cells (2×106 cells/mouse) in the flank. When tumors reached ~150 mm3, mice were randomized into groups (n=6 per group) and administered PRX-08066 (1, 3, 10 mg/kg/day) or vehicle by oral gavage for 21 consecutive days. Tumor volume was measured every 3 days using calipers, and body weight was monitored weekly. At the end of the study, tumors were excised, weighed, and processed for TUNEL staining to detect apoptotic cells [2] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
PRX-08066 has an oral bioavailability of 68% in rats and 72% in mice[1]
After a single oral administration, the plasma elimination half-life (t1/2) in rats is 3.5 hours and in mice is 2.8 hours[1] The drug is rapidly absorbed, and the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) is reached 1-2 hours after oral administration in rats and mice[1] In rats, PRX-08066 is widely distributed, with the highest concentrations in the brain, liver, and kidneys; the brain-plasma concentration ratio at Cmax is 1.0[1] Metabolism studies in human liver microsomes show that the drug is metabolized very little, and more than 90% of the parent compound remains after 2 hours of incubation[1] In rats, about 65% of the administered dose is excreted in feces within 72 hours, and about 28% is excreted in urine, of which about 70% is excreted unchanged in feces. And 60% of urine excretion [1] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In acute toxicity studies, single oral administration of PRX-08066 up to 100 mg/kg did not cause death or significant clinical toxicity in rats and mice [1]. In a 28-day repeated-dose toxicity study in rats, oral administration of different doses (1, 5, 25 mg/kg/day) of PRX-08066 did not cause changes in body weight, food consumption, or clinical chemical parameters (ALT, AST, creatinine, BUN) [1]. PRX-08066 has a protein binding rate of 89-91% in human plasma [1]. In human liver, no significant inhibition of CYP enzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4) was observed at concentrations up to 10 μM. Microsomes [1]
