Description of AZD8797

AZD8797 is a selective, high-affinity small-molecule inhibitor of CX3CR1, with a Ki value of 7nM for rat CX3CR1 [1]. AZD8797 has been widely used to inhibit inflammatory responses in different animal models by binding to receptors at different sites of CX3CL1 to affect CX3CL1 interaction with CX3CR1[2].

In vitro, AZD8797 pretreatment (2mM) for 1 hour significantly decreased the expression levels of CX3CR1 and MMP13 in rat chondrocytes after 24h lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation[3]. Co-treatment of 5μM AZD8797 with 5μM olaparib for 48 hours significantly inhibited Caov-3 cell colony formation and inhibited cell proliferation[4]. Treatment with 10μM AZD8797 for 12 hours resulted in down-regulation of 5-HTR2a expression and decreased phosphorylation of P65 and IκB proteins in PC-12 cells[5].

In vivo, AZD8797 treatment via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 10mg/kg/day for 10 days reduced spleen mass and cardiac levels of CCL2 and IL-15, with an increase of IL-4 in the mice with acute Trypanosoma cruzi infection[6]. Daily intraperitoneal injection of AZD8797 at a dose of 80μg/kg/day for 10 days can enhance the early behavioral recovery, inhibit the activation of apoptosis, and reduce the inflammatory response in a rat spinal cord injury model[7]. AZD8797 (2mg/kg/day) administered via the tail vein for 5 days reduced proteinuria, cell proliferation, and inflammation of glomerulus in rats with mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MsPGN)[8].

Protocol of AZD8797

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Rat chondrocytes

Preparation Method

Rat chondrocytes were cultured in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin at 37 °C in 5% CO2. The third passage of chondrocytes was used for subsequent experiments. An in vitro OA model was established by exposing chondrocytes to 1mg/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 24 hours. The experimental conditions were divided into three groups: (1) untreated control group; (2) OA group, LPS stimulation (1mg/ml); (3) OA+AZD8797 group, preincubated with 2mM AZD8797 for 1 hour before LPS treatment. After that, qRT-PCR and immunoblot analysis were performed.

Reaction Conditions

2mM; 1h

Applications

AZD8797 treatment significantly decreased the expression levels of CX3CR1 and MMP13 in chondrocytes after LPS stimulation.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Male Wistar rats

Preparation Method

Male Wistar rats (6-8 weeks old, 200-250g) were maintained under constant temperature (20°C), constant humidity (70%), and alternating day and night. The MsPGN model was established by injecting anti-Thy1 antibody (2.5mg/kg) through the tail vein, and the control group was injected with the same volume of normal saline. AZD8797 (2mg/kg/day) was injected daily through the tail vein from day 3 to day 7 after the model establishment. On days 7, 10, and 14 after modeling, the rats were sacrificed after pentobarbital anesthesia, and blood, urine, and kidney tissue were collected for analysis.

Dosage form

2mg/kg/day for 5 days; tail vein injection

Applications

AZD8797 treatment ameliorated proteinuria, cell proliferation, and inflammation of the glomerulus in the rats.
