Product Description
RG-12525 is a specific, competitive, orally bioavailable antagonist of LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4, capable of inhibiting LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4-induced contraction of the guinea pig parenchyma zone with IC50s of 2.6 nM, 2.5 nM and LTE4, respectively. 7 nM; RG-12525 is also an agonist of PPAR-γ with IC50 of about 60 nM and an inhibitor (blocker/antagonist) of CYP3A4 with Ki of 0.5 µM.
RG 12525 (CAS#: 120128-20-3) is a specific, competitive, and orally bioavailable antagonist of the peptidoleukotrienes LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4. It also functions as a PPAR-γ agonist and a CYP3A4 inhibitor. This compound is a valuable research tool for exploring leukotriene receptor biology, neuroprotection mechanisms, and glutamate-related pathophysiology.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
RG 12525 primarily targets the Leukotriene Receptor (CysLT1), PPAR-γ (Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor gamma), and the cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP3A4. It acts as an antagonist at the leukotriene receptor and an agonist at PPAR-γ.
ln Vitro
RG 12525 selectively and more than 8000 times antagonizes the spasmodic actions of LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4 on lung strips (KB value = 3 nM) and competitively inhibits the binding of 3H-LTD4 to lung membranes (Ki = 3.0 +/- 0.3 nM)[1]. RG 12525 (at 2.5 µM or 25 µM) suppresses CYP2C9 and -3A4 microsomal activity, but not CYP1A2, -2A6, -2C19, or -2D6. At 5 and 10 µM midazolam doses, RG 12525 (25 µM) likewise significantly inhibits [2].
In cell-free assays, RG 12525 competitively inhibits the binding of 3H-LTD4 to lung membranes with a Ki of 3.0 ± 0.3 nM. It antagonizes the spasmogenic activity of LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4 on lung strips with KB values of 3 nM. Furthermore, it suppresses CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 microsomal activity at concentrations of 2.5 µM or 25 µM.
ln Vivo
ORAL RG 12525 suppresses bronchoconstriction (ED50 = 0.6 mg/kg), wheal development (ED50 = 5 mg/kg, 9 mg/kg t1/2 = 10 hours), anaphylaxis mortality (ED50 = 2.2 mg)/kg, t1/2 = 7 hours (10 mg/kg), and antigen-induced bronchoconstriction (ED50 = 0.6 mg/kg) [1]. In an anaphylaxis paradigm, RG 12525 decreases antigen-induced mortality; ED50 (95% confidence interval) = 2.2 (0.8-6.4) mg/kg. RG 12525 also reduced LTD4-induced bronchoconstriction with an ED50 = 0.6 (0.4-1.0) mg/kg in a lung function model[3].
Orally administered RG 12525 suppresses bronchoconstriction (ED50 = 0.6 mg/kg) and LTD4-induced wheal development (ED50 = 5 mg/kg). In an anaphylaxis model, it reduces antigen-induced mortality with an ED50 of 2.2 mg/kg. It also inhibits antigen-induced bronchoconstriction, with a half-life (t1/2) of 7 hours at a 10 mg/kg dose and 10 hours at a 9 mg/kg dose.
Enzyme Assay
The standard assay involves preparing membrane fractions from lung tissue and incubating them with a radiolabeled ligand such as 3H-LTD4 in the presence of varying concentrations of RG 12525. Non-specific binding is determined using an excess of unlabeled ligand. After incubation, the mixture is filtered through glass fiber filters and washed. The bound radioactivity is then measured using a scintillation counter to calculate the inhibition constant (Ki).
Cell Assay
For cellular assays, cell lines expressing the target receptors, such as those from guinea pig lung parenchyma, are cultured in appropriate media. Cells are pre-incubated with various concentrations of RG 12525 before being stimulated with agonists like LTC4, LTD4, or LTE4. The induced contraction is measured as a functional readout. The concentration of compound required to inhibit 50% of the maximal response (IC50) is then determined.
Animal Protocol
In animal models, RG 12525 is typically administered orally to rodents or guinea pigs. For bronchoconstriction studies, the compound is given as a pretreatment, followed by challenge with an antigen or agonist like LTD4. The effective dose required to inhibit 50% of the bronchoconstriction (ED50) is then calculated. In anaphylaxis models, survival rates are monitored following antigen challenge, and the ED50 for preventing mortality is determined.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
RG 12525 is orally bioavailable. Following oral administration, it exhibits a half-life (t1/2) of approximately 10 hours at a 9 mg/kg dose and 7 hours at a 10 mg/kg dose in animal models. The compound has a LogP of 4.496.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
RG 12525 is an inhibitor of CYP3A4, with a Ki value of 0.5 µM. It also suppresses CYP2C9 microsomal activity. At higher concentrations (25 µM), it has been shown to inhibit midazolam metabolism, indicating potential for drug-drug interactions.

Additional Infomation
RG 12525 has been studied for its potential in treating asthma and other inflammatory conditions due to its role as a leukotriene receptor antagonist. However, it has not been clinically advanced for this indication and remains primarily a research tool. Its additional role as a PPAR-γ agonist suggests potential applications in metabolic research.
