Product Description
Lotamilast (formerly RVT-501; E-6005) is a novel, potent and selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE-4, IC50 = 2.8 nM) with the potential to be used for the treatment of AD/atopic dermatitis. It suppresses the production of various cytokines from human lymphocytes and monocytes with IC50 of 0.49-3.1 nM; produces an immediate antipruritic effect as well as an anti-inflammatory effect with reduced expression of cytokines/adhesion molecules in mice after topical application; ameliorates the appearance of atopic dermatitis-like skin lesions in AD models.
Lotamilast (CAS#: 947620-48-6), also known as RVT-501 or E6005, is a selective phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.8 nM. It potently and selectively inhibits human PDE4 activity and inhibits the production of various cytokines in human lymphocytes and monocytes with IC50 values of 0.49-3.1 nM. Lotamilast has been developed for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
IC50: 2.8 nM (human PDE4)[1]
Lotamilast targets phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) to AMP. By inhibiting PDE4, lotamilast increases intracellular cAMP levels, which activates protein kinase A (PKA) and leads to the suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokine production in immune cells. This mechanism reduces inflammation and is the basis for its therapeutic potential in inflammatory skin diseases.
ln Vitro
Lotamilast decreases the production of several cytokines from human lymphocytes and monocytes with IC50 values ranging from 0.49 to 3.1 nM, and it potently and selectively inhibits human PDE4 activity with an IC50 of 2.8 nM[1].
In vitro, lotamilast potently and selectively inhibits human PDE4 activity with an IC50 of 2.8 nM. It inhibits the production of various cytokines in human lymphocytes and monocytes with IC50 values of 0.49-3.1 nM. The compound's ability to inhibit PDE4 and reduce cytokine production has been confirmed in various cell-based assays. Lotamilast shows selectivity for PDE4 over other PDE isoforms.
ln Vivo
Phase 2 trials are presently being conducted on lotamilast for the treatment of mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis. Topical administration of Lotamilast in mouse models results in both an immediate anti-inflammatory and anti-pruritic impact with decreased production of adhesion molecules and cytokines. Based on these results, topical RVT-501 shows inhibitory effects similar to tacrolimus in reducing the formation of skin lesions resembling atopic dermatitis in two types of AD models: hapten- and mite-elicited models[1]. In mice with chronic dermatitis, a single topical treatment of Lotamilast dramatically reduces spontaneous scratching within 1-2 hours of application; the inhibition is partial and ranges from 0.01% to 0.03%. Mice with chronic dermatitis show a significant reduction in the enhanced activity of the cutaneous nerve when 0.03% Lotamilast is applied topically to the rostral back. In mice with chronic dermatitis, there is a considerable drop in the cutaneous concentration of cAMP. This decline can be reversed by using topical Lotamilast [2].
In vivo, lotamilast has been developed for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis. However, specific in vivo efficacy data in animal models are not extensively detailed in the available literature. The compound's potent PDE4 inhibition and anti-inflammatory effects suggest therapeutic potential in inflammatory conditions. Clinical studies have evaluated its safety and efficacy in atopic dermatitis.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for lotamilast are PDE4 inhibition assays using purified PDE4 enzyme. The enzyme is incubated with a cAMP substrate and varying concentrations of lotamilast, and the rate of cAMP hydrolysis is measured. The IC50 for inhibition of PDE4 activity is determined from dose-response curves. Selectivity is assessed by testing the compound against other PDE isoforms.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for lotamilast are performed using human lymphocytes or monocytes. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of lotamilast and stimulated with inflammatory agents. Cytokine production (e.g., TNF-α, IL-4, IL-13) is measured by ELISA. Intracellular cAMP levels are measured using ELISA or FRET-based assays. Cell viability is evaluated using MTT assays to ensure that the observed effects are not due to cytotoxicity.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for lotamilast are conducted in animal models of inflammatory skin diseases, such as atopic dermatitis models in mice. Mice are sensitized and challenged with allergens, and lotamilast is applied topically or administered orally. Skin inflammation, epidermal thickness, and inflammatory cell infiltration are assessed. However, detailed protocols are not extensively documented in the available literature.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Lotamilast has a molecular weight of 472.49 g/mol and a molecular formula of C26H24N4O5. It is a selective PDE4 inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.8 nM. The compound should be stored under recommended conditions. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters such as half-life, Cmax, and bioavailability have been characterized in clinical studies. As a topical and systemic agent, lotamilast has been evaluated for dermatological applications.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Lotamilast has been evaluated in clinical studies and has been reported to be well-tolerated. Common adverse effects may include mild to moderate application site reactions, gastrointestinal disturbances, or headache. No significant safety concerns have been reported in clinical trials. Comprehensive safety data are available from clinical studies. The compound is a research tool and is not an approved drug.
