RP-001 is a selective agonist of the Sphingosine 1-Phosphate Receptor 1 (S1P1). It activates S1P1 in vitro with an EC50 of 9 pM. It has little activity on S1P2, S1P3, and S1P4, and only moderate affinity for S1P5 [1].

| ln Vitro |
RP-001 induces a dose-dependent lymphopenia of CD4+ T cells. Acute lymphopenia is induced by RP-001, although it quickly returns to untreated levels [1].
RP-001 activated S1P1 in vitro with an EC50 of 9 pM, while having little activity on S1P2, S1P3, and S1P4, and only moderate affinity for S1P5. No differences were observed between the racemate and the resolved S-enantiomer across all five S1P receptors, demonstrating no chiral preference [1]. RP-001 induced sustained signaling while in internalized vesicles, as reported for FTY720, in contrast to the natural ligand S1P. It also induced dose-dependent internalization and polyubiquitination of S1P1 in vitro similar to other S1P1 agonists [1]. |
| ln Vivo |
The EC50 of RP-001 is 0.03 mg/kg, and it causes dose-dependent fast lymphopenia[1].
In vivo, RP-001 caused dose-dependent rapid lymphopenia with an EC50 of 0.03 mg/kg. Maximal lymphocyte sequestration from blood occurred within 2 hours and returned to untreated levels by 8 hours following treatment with 0.3 mg/kg [1]. In Edg1eGFP/eGFP knock-in mice, treatment with RP-001 (0.1 mg/kg) resulted in significant decreases in S1P1-eGFP expression on lymphocytes in the lymph node within 2 hours. Lymphocytic S1P1-eGFP did not fully recover to untreated levels by 8 hours after treatment, despite restoration of normal lymphocyte recirculation [1]. On endothelial cells in the lung, RP-001 (0.1 mg/kg) caused a small loss of S1P1-eGFP within 2 hours, but substantial degradation was observed 8 hours after treatment, when no agonist was present in circulation [1]. Using two-photon microscopy, treatment with RP-001 at 0.1 mg/kg did not lead to internalization of S1P1-eGFP on endothelial cells within the lymph node within 80 minutes. However, ex vivo incubation of explanted lymph nodes with a concentration of RP-001 (250 nM, 10-fold higher than the Cmax at 0.1 mg/kg) induced rapid ligand-induced internalization of S1P1-eGFP on endothelial cells [1]. |
| Cell Assay |
S1P1 Activation Assay (CRE-β-lactamase): CHO-K1 cells expressing S1P1 and a CRE-β-lactamase reporter were used. Cells were pretreated with 1 μM of the indicated compounds for 1 hour, washed, and rested for 5 hours. Cells were then treated with 2 μM forskolin with or without 10 mM FTY720 as indicated. Cyclic AMP-induced beta-lactamase expression was detected by cleavage of the fluorogenic substrate CC4-AM [1].
S1P1 Internalization and Polyubiquitination: In vitro assays demonstrated that RP-001 induced dose-dependent internalization and polyubiquitination of S1P1, similar to other S1P1 agonists [1]. |
| Animal Protocol |
Lymphopenia Studies: Mice were treated with RP-001 via intraperitoneal injection. Doses used included 0.03 mg/kg, 0.1 mg/kg, 0.3 mg/kg, and 1 mg/kg. Blood samples were collected at various time points (2 hours, 8 hours) to measure lymphocyte counts. For recovery studies, mice were treated with 0.3 mg/kg, and blood was collected at 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours post-injection. Blood concentration of RP-001 was quantified by mass spectrometry [1].
Endothelial Cell Studies: Mice were treated with RP-001 (0.1 mg/kg) via intraperitoneal injection. Lymph nodes and lungs were harvested at 2 hours and 8 hours post-injection for flow cytometric analysis of S1P1-eGFP expression on blood and lymphatic endothelial cells [1]. Ex Vivo Lymph Node Incubation: Explanted lymph nodes were incubated in the presence of 250 nM RP-001 (a concentration 10-fold higher than the Cmax at 0.1 mg/kg) to observe ligand-induced internalization of S1P1-eGFP on endothelial cells [1]. Two-Photon Microscopy: Mice were treated with 0.1 mg/kg RP-001 via intraperitoneal injection. Lymph nodes were imaged intravitally using two-photon microscopy to observe subcellular localization of S1P1-eGFP over time (up to 80 minutes) [1]. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
RP-001 has a short half-life in vivo. Following treatment with 0.3 mg/kg, blood concentration of RP-001 was quantified by mass spectrometry. The lower limit of detection was 1 nM. The short half-life renders RP-001 unsuitable for clinical use but allows examination of changes in S1P1 expression during both induction and recovery of lymphopenia [1].

| Additional Infomation |
Background: S1P1 is a high-affinity GPCR for S1P, essential for vascular development and integrity, and modulates lymphocyte development and recirculation. FTY720 (fingolimod), a prodrug whose phosphorylated form is an S1P1 agonist, was the first oral treatment for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. However, FTY720 has a long duration of action and is thought to strongly downmodulate S1P1 expression [1].
Mechanism of Action: RP-001 is an orthosteric S1P1 agonist, competitive with the selective S1P1 antagonist W146. It induces sustained signaling while in internalized vesicles, similar to FTY720, and induces dose-dependent internalization and polyubiquitination of S1P1 [1]. Derivation: RP-001 was derived from the allosteric S1P1 agonist CYM-5442 by adding S1P-like headgroup interactions, which enhanced potency by 100-fold and shifted ligand binding into an orthosteric binding mode [1]. Purpose: Due to its short duration of action, RP-001 was used as a tool compound to elucidate physiological and agonist-perturbed changes in S1P1 expression at a subcellular level in vivo, particularly to demonstrate differential downregulation of S1P1 on lymphocytes and endothelia following agonist treatment [1]. |
