Tenatoprazole (formerly known as TU-199; TU 199; Ulsacare; Protop) is a prodrug of the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) class with the potential for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease. It inhibits proton transport with IC50 of 3.2 μM. Tenatoprazole is a drug candidate that was undergoing clinical testing as a potential treatment for reflux oesophagitis and peptic ulcer. Tenatoprazole has an imidazopyridine ring in place of the benzimidazole moiety found in other proton pump inhibitors, and has a half-life about seven times longer than other PPIs.
| Targets |
Tenatoprazole (TU-199) primarily targets gastric parietal cell H+/K+-ATPase [2][4]
It also targets Tsg101 (a key component of ESCRT machinery) for inhibiting virus release[3] |

| ln Vitro |
In Heidenhain-pouch dogs, tenatoprazole (TU-199) (0.1, 0.2, 0.4 mg/kg; oral; single) dose-dependently suppresses gastric acid secretion induced by histamine infusion [4].
In primary cultured rat gastric glands, Tenatoprazole (0.1-10 μM) dose-dependently inhibited gastric acid secretion: 1 μM reduced H+ release by 40%, 3 μM by 65%, and 10 μM by 90% at 24 hours, via irreversible inhibition of H+/K+-ATPase [2] - In EBV-positive Raji and Akata cells, Tenatoprazole (20-100 μM) inhibited EBV release following phorbol ester-induced reactivation: 50 μM reduced viral particle secretion by 60% at 48 hours, without affecting cell viability (>85% viability at 100 μM); it disrupted Tsg101-mediated viral budding by binding to Tsg101's UEV domain [3] - Western blot analysis showed Tenatoprazole (50 μM) reduced Tsg101-viral glycoprotein B (gB) interaction by 55% in Raji cells, inhibiting viral particle assembly [3] |
| ln Vivo |
Tenatoprazole provides slow activation in vivo, which is predicted by its chemical activation rate in fasting rats. Tenatoprazole inhibits about 20–30% of enzyme activity even though acid secretion in fasting rats. (S)-tenatoprazole sodium salt hydrate provides a higher Cmax of 183 ng/mL, Tmax of 1.3 hours and AUC of 822 ngh/mL in dog.
In healthy human volunteers (randomized three-way crossover study), oral Tenatoprazole (30 mg) showed different effects on intragastric pH based on administration time: - Fasting morning administration: Mean intragastric pH >4 for 14.2 hours/24h, pH >3 for 16.8 hours/24h [1] - Fasting evening administration: Mean pH >4 for 12.5 hours/24h, pH >3 for 15.3 hours/24h [1] - Fed bedtime administration: Mean pH >4 for 9.8 hours/24h, pH >3 for 12.1 hours/24h [1] - In Sprague-Dawley rats with indomethacin-induced gastroduodenal ulcers, oral Tenatoprazole (1-10 mg/kg/day for 14 days) dose-dependently promoted ulcer healing: 10 mg/kg group showed 78% ulcer area reduction, compared to 62% for omeprazole 10 mg/kg; gastric acid secretion was inhibited by 85% at 24 hours post-administration [2] - In beagle dogs, oral Tenatoprazole (0.3-3 mg/kg) dose-dependently inhibited pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion: 1 mg/kg achieved 90% inhibition at 8 hours, with the effect lasting for 24 hours; intragastric pH was maintained above 4 for 18 hours [4] |
| Enzyme Assay |
H+/K+-ATPase activity inhibition assay: Gastric microsomes enriched with H+/K+-ATPase were isolated from rats/dogs. Serial concentrations of Tenatoprazole (0.01-20 μM) were incubated with the enzyme, ATP (2 mM), and reaction buffer at 37°C for 60 minutes. Released inorganic phosphate was detected by colorimetric assay, and inhibitory rates were calculated relative to vehicle controls [2][4]
|
| Cell Assay |
Gastric acid secretion assay: Primary rat gastric glands were seeded in collagen-coated plates and treated with Tenatoprazole (0.1-10 μM). Acid secretion was measured by monitoring pH changes in the culture medium using a pH-sensitive fluorescent probe, and inhibition rates were quantified [2]
- EBV release inhibition assay: EBV-positive Raji/Akata cells were seeded in 6-well plates, activated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) to induce viral reactivation, and treated with Tenatoprazole (20-100 μM) for 48 hours. Culture supernatants were collected, and viral particles were quantified by plaque assay. Tsg101-viral gB interaction was detected by co-immunoprecipitation and Western blot [3] |
| Animal Protocol |
Rats and dogs Rat gastroduodenal ulcer model: Sprague-Dawley rats (200-250 g) were intraperitoneally injected with indomethacin (40 mg/kg) to induce ulcers. Rats were randomized (n=10/group) and treated with: (1) vehicle (0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium) oral; (2) Tenatoprazole 1/3/10 mg/kg/day oral; (3) omeprazole 10 mg/kg/day oral. Treatment lasted 14 days, with ulcer area measured by planimetry and gastric acid secretion assessed by pyloric ligation [2] - Dog gastric acid secretion model: Beagle dogs (8-10 kg) were fasted for 18 hours, randomized (n=6/group), and treated with Tenatoprazole 0.3/1/3 mg/kg oral. Two hours post-administration, pentagastrin (1 μg/kg) was intravenously injected to stimulate acid secretion. Gastric juice was collected every 2 hours for 24 hours, with acid output (mmol/h) and pH measured [4] - Human clinical study (crossover design): 12 healthy volunteers (20-30 years old) were randomized to three treatment sequences: (1) fasting morning Tenatoprazole 30 mg; (2) fasting evening Tenatoprazole 30 mg; (3) fed bedtime Tenatoprazole 30 mg. Each treatment period lasted 7 days, with a 7-day washout between periods. Intragastric pH was monitored continuously for 24 hours on day 7 of each period [1] - Tenatoprazole was dissolved in 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium for animal oral administration; human formulations were oral tablets [1][2][4] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In rats treated with tenatolprazole (10 mg/kg/day for 14 days), no weight loss (<3%) or histopathological abnormalities of the liver, kidneys or gastrointestinal tract were detected; hematological and hepatic and renal function indicators were within normal ranges [2]
- In healthy volunteers treated with tenatolprazole (30 mg/day for 7 days), no significant adverse reactions (e.g., nausea, diarrhea, fatigue) were reported; vital signs and laboratory parameters were normal [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
5-Methoxy-2-[(4-Methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)methanesulfinyl]-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine is an imidazopyridine compound.
Tinatoprazole (TU-199) is a novel long-acting proton pump inhibitor (PPI) with improved pharmacodynamic properties compared to conventional PPIs [1][2][4] Its core mechanism includes: irreversible binding to H+/K+-ATPase in gastric parietal cells, blocking H+ secretion and inhibiting gastric acid production (which is the basis for its use in treating acid-related diseases); the drug targets Tsg101, disrupting ESCRT-dependent viral budding, thereby inhibiting the release of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) from activated cells [2][3][4]. Its efficacy is significantly affected by the timing of administration: administration on an empty stomach in the morning provides the longest period of gastric pH control (pH>4, lasting about 14 hours), which is better than administration on an empty stomach in the evening or after a meal at bedtime[1]. The drug showed a long-lasting gastric acid inhibition in dogs (24 hours) and rats, and its efficacy in promoting the healing of gastroduodenal ulcers in rat models was better than that of omeprazole[2][4]. |
