Beschreibung (Description)

QWF is a specific antagonist of MRGPRX2 and also an NK1 receptor antagonist[1]. Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) is a receptor expressed primarily on mast cells and sensory neurons, playing an important role in mediating itch and pain sensations[2]. QWF is usually used in research on pain, inflammation, and allergic reactions[3][4].

In vitro, pre-incubation of HMC1 mast cells with QWF (10, 25, and 100mM; 10min) dose-dependently inhibited C48/80-induced degranulation, and significantly suppressed CD63 surface membrane expression and β-hexosaminidase release[5].

In vivo, QWF (20mg/kg/day; i.p.; beginning in the 7th week after surgery for 2 weeks) reversed endometriosis-induced mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia and reduced ectopic lesion volume and weight in wild-type C57BL/6J mice[6]. QWF (500μM; 10μL; intradermal injection) co-administered with lithocholic acid (LCA) reduced the LCA-induced scratching behavior in ICR mice[7].

Protokoll (Protocol)

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

HMC1 mast cells

Preparation Method

HMC1 cells were cultured in Roswell Park Memorial Institute medium supplemented with HEPES, 10% inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS), 50μM β‐mercapto‐ethanol, and 1% antibiotics (penicillin/streptomycin). Stimulation experiments were performed using the MRGPRX2 specific ligand compound 48/80 (1-100mg/ml). To further prove the functionality and specificity of MRGPRX2 activation, additional inhibition experiments were conducted by pre-incubation with the MRGPRX2 specific antagonist QWF for 10 minutes, at concentrations of 10, 25 and 100mM. An unstimulated condition containing an equal amount of the QWF diluent, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), was included in every experiment as a control condition, not exceeding the maximal concentration of 0.28% DMSO during stimulation of the cells. Degranulation was assessed by β-hexosaminidase release and CD63 expression.

Reaction Conditions

10, 25, and 100mM; 10min

Applications

Pre-incubation of HMC1 mast cells with QWF dose-dependently inhibited C48/80-induced degranulation, and significantly suppressed CD63 surface membrane expression and β-hexosaminidase release.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

female C57BL/6J wild-type mice

Preparation Method

Six to eight-week-old female C57BL/6J wild-type control mice were housed under identical conditions, with a maximum of 5 animals per cage, on a 12-hour light–dark cycle. Food and water were provided ad libitum. Endometriosis was induced as follows: bilateral ovariectomy was performed seven days before the operation, followed by subcutaneous injection of 0.5mg of oestradiol benzoate dissolved in 60mL of corn oil every 5 days. On Day 0, the uterine tissue of each donor was dissected and cut into fragments less than 1mm3 in size. These fragments were then suspended in 0.9% sterile saline and injected intraperitoneally into two other recipient mice. The Sham operation group received an equivalent volume of 0.9% sterile saline. WT mice were separated into three groups to investigate the role of Mrgprb2 in endometriosis-induced hyperalgesia: the Sham group, drug groups, and the control group. The mice in the Sham and control groups were injected intraperitoneally with the vehicle control containing 10% DMSO, 40% PEG400, 5% Tween-80 and 45% saline, while those in the drug administration group were injected with the Mrgprb2 antagonist QWF (i.p.) at a dose of 20mg/kg once a day. Behavioral tests, including mechanical and thermal paw withdrawal tests and reflexive withdrawal tests to mechanical and thermal stimulation of the abdominal area, were performed to assess hyperalgesia in the mice before and every week after surgery. The mice were anesthetized via the inhalation of CO2 and euthanized via cervical dislocation on Days 28 or 49 after the induction of endometriosis. The peritoneal fluid and DRG (T11-L2 segment) were preserved for further experiments.

Dosage form

20mg/kg/day; i.p. beginning in the 7th week after surgery for 2 weeks

Applications

QWF reversed endometriosis-induced mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia and reduced ectopic lesion volume and weight in wild-type C57BL/6J mice.
