| Targets |
The primary target of Tiopinac is prostaglandin synthesis. As an NSAID, it inhibits the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are key mediators of inflammation, pain, and fever. Tiopinac was specifically identified for its favorable balance of high potency and low gastric irritation liability.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Tiopinac is a prostaglandin synthesis inhibitor. It demonstrates potent anti-inflammatory activity in various in vitro models. Its development distinguished it from other analogs through a combination of high efficacy and a notably low potential for causing gastric irritation.

| ln Vivo |
Phenylbutazone is 40 times less potent as an anti-inflammatory than thiopic acid (0.03-110 mg/kg). About 0.5 mg/kg is the amount needed to minimize paw edema by 30%. At 20 mg/kg/day, thiopic acid does not have any appreciable side effects. Adjuvant disease-induced weight loss was reversed in a dose-dependent manner by thiopic acid; rats given 0.135 and 0.4 mg/kg/day gained noticeably more weight than the positive control. Rat hindpaw pain from yeast inflammation can be effectively inhibited by thiopic acid (0.3-30 mg/kg) [1].
In vivo, Tiopinac (0.03-110 mg/kg) is highly potent, with anti-inflammatory efficacy 40 times that of Phenylbutazone. The dose required to reduce paw swelling by 30% is approximately 0.5 mg/kg. Tiopinac (0.3-30 mg/kg) is highly potent in inhibiting pain evoked in the yeast-inflamed hind paw of the rat. It prevents the development of adjuvant-induced arthritis. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme or receptor binding assays for Tiopinac involve measuring its inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymatic activity. The assay uses a purified COX enzyme and a substrate, such as arachidonic acid. The production of prostaglandins is measured using a colorimetric or fluorometric method. The compound is incubated with the enzyme and substrate at varying concentrations to determine the IC50.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for Tiopinac are performed using various cell lines, such as macrophages or synoviocytes. Cells are treated with the compound, and the production of prostaglandins and inflammatory cytokines is measured by ELISA. The compound's effects on cell viability, proliferation, and apoptosis are also assessed.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for Tiopinac are conducted using rodent models of inflammation and pain, such as carrageenan-induced paw edema, yeast-inflamed paw, and adjuvant-induced arthritis. The compound is administered orally, and inflammation and pain are assessed. These studies confirm the compound's efficacy as an anti-inflammatory and analgesic agent.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of Tiopinac indicate that it is orally active. The compound has a molecular weight of 284.3 g/mol and a molecular formula of C16H12O3S. The IUPAC name is 2-(11-oxo-6H-benzo[c][1]benzothiepin-3-yl)acetic acid. It is soluble in DMSO. Storage in a dry, dark place at 0-4°C for short-term or -20°C for long-term is recommended.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicology (toxicology) data for Tiopinac indicate that it has a favorable balance of high potency and low gastric irritation liability. Unlike many potent NSAIDs such as indomethacin and diclofenac, which have significant gastrointestinal toxicity, Tiopinac was specifically identified for its low potential for causing gastric irritation in rats and dogs.
