2-(1′H-indole-3′-carbonyl)-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester (ITE) is a nontoxic immunosuppressive endogenous aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligand [1] [2]. Its EC50 identified via yeast AhR assay is 7.8×10−10 mol/l [3].
AhR is a transcription factor mediating toxic effects of environmental pollutants such as 2, 3, 7, 8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), it is activated by ligand [2].
ITE inhibited TGFβ1-induced myofibroblast differentiation in TGFβ1-challenged cultures of primary human fibroblasts from several distinct tissue types. In primary human orbital fibroblasts, ITE inhibited TGFβ1-induced nuclear translocation of Smad2/3/4 and its subsequent binding to SBE, but it did not inhibit TGFβ1-induced phosphorylation of Smad2/3, Erk1/2, or Akt [4], it inhibited TGFβ1 (1 ng/mL)-induced α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression, extracellular matrix production [5]. The inhibition of ITE to TGFβ1-induced myofibroblast differentiation in primary human fibroblasts is AhR independent [5].
In Sprague-Dawley rats maintained under a 12 h light/12 h dark cycle and given free access to a solid diet and distilled water, ITE at 1.6 and 8.0 mg/kg bw, significantly increased the CYP1A1 mRNA levels by 5.59 and 68.55 fold, respectively. It indicated that ITE activated AhR activation in placentas. 8.0 mg/kg bw ITE elevated the level of HIF-1a mRNA, induced the levels of VEGF-A, VEGF-B and PIGF mRNA in a dose-dependent manner [6].

Cell experiment: | Subconfluent cells (25, 000 cells/well) are seeded in 96-well plates. Cells are treated with ITE at 5, 10 and 20 µM or DMSO (0.1% v/v) in ECM for 2, 4 or 6 days with a change of ECM containing DMSO or ITE every other day (5 wells/treatment). At the end of treatment, cells are incubated with MTT reagent for 4 hr, and solubilized in crystal dissolving solution (100 µL/well) for 20 min. The absorbance is determined at 570 nm using the microplate reader[3]. |
Animal experiment: | Mice[2]Eight- to 12-week-old female B10.A mice is used in the assay. Daily treatment starts on day 0 and consists of 200 μg of ITE suspended in 0.2 mL PBS, given intraperitoneally. Control mice are similarly treated with 0.2 mL of the vehicle, PBS containing 3.6% DMSO[2]. |
