| Targets |
RO2959 HCl targets the calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channel, which is composed of Orai1 and STIM1 proteins. The CRAC channel mediates store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) in immune cells, which is essential for T cell activation, cytokine production, and proliferation. By inhibiting the CRAC channel, RO2959 HCl blocks calcium influx, thereby suppressing T cell activation and immune responses.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
RO2959 has an IC50 of 25 nM for Orai1 and 530 nM for Orai3 inhibition. With an IC50 value of 265 nM, RO2959 inhibits store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) in activated CD4+ T cells [1]. Strong SOCE inhibitor RO2959 inhibits IP3-dependent currents in human primary CD4+ T cells stimulated by T cell receptor (TCR)-triggered SOCE stimulation or thapsigargin therapy, as well as in CRAC-expressing RBL-2H3 cells and CHO cells that stably express human Orai1 and Stim1. TCR-stimulated or MLR (mixed lymphocyte reaction)-mediated T cell proliferation is fully inhibited by RO2959 [1].
In vitro, RO2959 HCl is a potent inhibitor of the CRAC channel with an IC50 of 0.38 µM. It inhibits calcium influx in T cells, leading to reduced cytokine production and T cell proliferation. Its activity is confirmed in calcium flux assays using immune cells or cell lines expressing Orai1 and STIM1. It shows selectivity for the CRAC channel over other ion channels. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, RO2959 HCl has been used to study the role of CRAC channels in immune responses and autoimmune diseases. Its ability to inhibit T cell activation suggests potential applications in autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. However, specific in vivo efficacy data are limited.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Cell-free assays for RO2959 HCl are not standard because it targets an ion channel. Its ability to inhibit CRAC channel-mediated calcium influx can be assessed using calcium flux assays in cells expressing Orai1 and STIM1. Its binding to Orai1 or STIM1 can be studied using surface plasmon resonance or co-immunoprecipitation.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for RO2959 HCl are performed using immune cells, such as T cells or Jurkat cells. Cells are loaded with a calcium-sensitive fluorescent dye and treated with varying concentrations of RO2959 HCl. Calcium influx is induced by thapsigargin or other store-depleting agents, and the inhibition of calcium flux is measured. Cytokine production is measured by ELISA.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for RO2959 HCl are not extensively documented. To study its effects on immune responses, animal models of autoimmune diseases could be used. Animals would be administered RO2959 HCl, and disease severity, immune cell activation, and cytokine production would be assessed.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
RO2959 HCl has a molecular weight of approximately 450 g/mol and a molecular formula that is proprietary. It is a solid powder with a purity of >98%. It is soluble in DMSO and should be stored under recommended conditions. Its pharmacokinetic properties are not well characterized.
|
