Description of FSL-1

FSL-1 is a synthetic diacyl lipopeptide TLR2/6 agonist [1]. FSL-1 binds to and activates TLR2/6 heterodimers, triggering downstream MyD88-dependent signaling pathways, leading to activation of NF-κB, MAPK, and other pathways, and inducing the release of multiple inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8) and chemokines [2-3]. FSL-1 is primarily used in immunology and inflammation research [4].

In THP-1 cells, FSL-1 (50ng/mL; 24h) induces MMP-9 gene expression [5]. In HaCaT cells, FSL-1 (100ng/mL; 0.5-2h) stimulation downregulates TGB6 expression [6].

In radiation mice model, prophylactic administration of FSL-1 (0.25mg/kg; sc; 40d) significantly improves the survival rate of male and female C57BL/6 mice [7]. In radiation mice model, FSL-1 (0.09mg/kg; sc; 8d) stimulates the recruitment of hematopoietic progenitor cells [8].

Protocol of FSL-1

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

THP-1 cells

Preparation Method

THP-1 cells were seeded in 12-well plates at 1 × 106 cells per well. Cells were stimulated with FSL-1 (50ng/mL) or TNF-α (25ng/mL) at 37℃ for 24 hours. Cells were harvested for RNA isolation, and conditioned medium was collected for determination of MMP-9 secretion and SEAP activity. Conditioned medium was collected and stored at −80℃.

Reaction Conditions

50ng/mL; 24h

Applications

In THP-1 cells, FSL-1 induces MMP-9 gene expression.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Radiation mice model

Preparation Method

To investigate the radioprotective efficacy of FSL-1, all mice in the study were weighed before the start of the study; animals weighing ± 10% of the mean body weight were excluded. Mice were then randomly divided into two groups (vehicle control and FSL-1 groups), with five animals per cage. Twenty-four hours before radiation exposure, mice received a single dose of 0.25mg/kg of FSL-1 or vehicle (sterile PBS) subcutaneously injected into the scruff of the neck using a 23-G needle. Each drug- and vehicle-treated (PBS) group contained 25 animals. Males received a radiation dose of 8.1Gy. Because females are more radioresistant than males, females received a higher dose of 8.7Gy. Survival was monitored up to four times daily for 30 days, and surviving animals were euthanized upon completion of the study.

Dosage form

0.25mg/kg; sc; 40d

Applications

Prophylactic administration of FSL-1 significantly improves the survival rate of male and female C57BL/6 mice.
