Product Description
TFAP is a cell-permeable pyridinyl-benzamide compound that acts as a COX-1-selective inhibitor by targeting the enzyme's active site. TFAP exhibits analgesic properties in mice and rats in vivo without long-term cytotoxic effects. Unlike COX-2-inhibiting analgesics such as aspirin, TFAP is shown not to cause gastric damage in rats in vivo.
TFAP (N-(5-Aminopyridin-2-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzamide) is a cell-permeable pyridinyl-benzamide compound that acts as a selective cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibitor. Its structure is clearly different from those of currently available COX-1-selective inhibitors. TFAP is a research compound used to study the role of COX-1 in inflammation and pain, with potential therapeutic applications in conditions such as arthritis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
TFAP selectively targets the cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) enzyme by binding to its active site. It exhibits high selectivity for COX-1 over COX-2, with an IC50 of 0.8 µM against COX-1 and an IC50 greater than 200 µM against COX-2. By selectively inhibiting COX-1, TFAP interferes with the synthesis of prostaglandins derived from arachidonic acid.
ln Vitro
TFAP exhibits selectivity as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) with an IC50 of 0.8 μM and a high IC50 against COX-2, exceeding 200 μM.
In vitro, TFAP is a potent and selective COX-1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.8 µM, while its IC50 against COX-2 is over 200 µM. This high selectivity distinguishes TFAP from non-selective COX inhibitors. The compound is cell-permeable and is used in biochemical assays to study COX-1 inhibition and prostaglandin synthesis.
ln Vivo
In vivo, TFAP displays analgesic properties in mice and rats without long-term cytotoxic effects. It exhibits analgesic effects at an oral dose as low as 10 mg/kg in rats and causes little gastric damage even at an oral dose of 300 mg/kg. Unlike COX-2-inhibiting analgesics such as aspirin, TFAP does not cause gastric damage in rats in vivo.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme assay for TFAP measures its inhibition of COX-1 and COX-2 activity. The enzyme is incubated with arachidonic acid substrate and varying concentrations of TFAP, and the production of prostaglandins is quantified by immunoassay or chromatographic methods. The IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves, with TFAP showing an IC50 of 0.8 µM for COX-1 and >200 µM for COX-2.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for TFAP use cell lines such as macrophages or other COX-expressing cells. Cells are treated with serial dilutions of TFAP, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production is measured by ELISA as a readout of COX activity. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or other assays to evaluate cytotoxicity. The compound's selectivity for COX-1 over COX-2 is confirmed by comparing IC50 values in these assays.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal models for TFAP include mouse and rat models of pain and inflammation. The compound is administered orally at doses ranging from 10 to 300 mg/kg. Analgesic efficacy is evaluated using standard pain models such as the writhing test or hot plate test. Gastric damage is assessed by examining the stomach mucosa for lesions after oral administration.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
TFAP is orally bioavailable and is administered in vivo via oral gavage. The compound is soluble in DMSO and ethanol, with limited aqueous solubility. It is metabolized and excreted in urine, with urine turning a red-purple color after administration. Pharmacokinetic studies have identified urine metabolites of TFAP.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
TFAP has a favorable safety profile in preclinical studies. It exhibits no long-term cytotoxic effects in mice at doses up to 300 mg/kg administered orally for 14 days. Unlike many NSAIDs, TFAP does not cause gastric damage in rats even at high oral doses (300 mg/kg). The compound is not intended for human use and is for research purposes only.
