CCG 2046 is an inhibitor of TNF-α with IC50 values of 2.32 µM and 0.66 µM in the HTRF assay and the ELISA assay, respectively [1]. CCG 2046 is also an inhibitor of RGS4.
Three members of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family are: TNF-α, TNF-β (also called lymphotoxin α, LT-α) and LT-β. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a secreted cytokine. It plays an important role in immune disorders and inflammatory diseases. TNF-α is also involved in the inhibition of viral replication and in some cases of programmed cell death. At the cellular level, TNF-α can regulate multiple signaling pathways, such as NF-kB activation and apoptosis [1].
Both LPS and TNF-α can downregulate RGS4 [2]. CCG 2046 reduced the RGS4-Gα0 interaction signal with an IC50 value of 4.3 ± 0.2 µM [3]. Infliximab is also a TNF-α inhibitor [4]. IL-10 mRNA was upregulated by 2.6 folds after stimulating mTNF using rabbit antihuman TNF-α polyclonal Ab for 6 hours. WT mTNF-transfected Jurkat cells incubated with infliximab at 10 µg/mL for 24 hours also showed a 2.7-fold increase in the production of IL-10 with statistical significance. These results were indicated by cDNA expression array analysis [5].
Infliximab is described hereafter. 1 h after the infusion with infliximab, concentrations of serum TNF-α protein in a subset of patients were significantly reduced. At 24 and 48 h following the first dose of infliximab, patients showed a significantly declined CCL2 concentration [4]. TNF-α was suggested to promote the expression of CCL2 by tumor cells [6].
