Description of Lifitegrast

Lifitegrast is an effective integrin antagonist that blocks the binding of LFA-1 to ICAM-1 (IC50=2.98nM) and inhibits Jurkat T cell activation. Lifitegrast can be used in research related to dry eye disease, psoriasis, and ocular graft-versus-host disease (oGVHD)[1-4].

In vitro, Vero-E6 cells were treated with Lifitegrast (10-1000μM) for 24 hours. Lifitegrast inhibited SARS-CoV-2 virus infection[5]. After pretreatment with 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (1mM) for 24 hours, SH-SY5Y cells were incubated with Lifitegrast (1μM for 24 hours; 250μM for 4 hours). Lifitegrast interacted with the LNK SH2 domain in cells and attenuated LNK-associated signaling[6].

In vivo, MRL/lpr mice were intraperitoneally injected with Lifitegrast (15mg/kg; once weekly) for 5 consecutive weeks. Lifitegrast inhibited Itgam protein expression, reduced urinary protein and serum levels of anti-dsDNA antibodies, IL-12p70, and TNF-α, decreased spleen index, double-negative T cells, T follicular helper cells, and plasma cells, alleviated kidney injury and immune complex deposition, and mitigated renal inflammatory cell infiltration and pathological scores[7]. Down syndrome C57BL/6J mice received topical ocular administration of Lifitegrast (5%; 2μl; twice daily) for 5 days. Lifitegrast significantly reduced the expression of interferon-γ and CXCL9 in the cornea, decreased corneal barrier disruption, and increased the number and area of conjunctival goblet cells[8].

Protocol of Lifitegrast

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

SH-SY5Y cells (human neuroblastoma cell line)

Preparation Method

SH-SY5Y cells were maintained in high-glucose Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin-streptomycin. SH-SY5Y cells were first subjected to neurotoxic stress by treatment with 1mM 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium for 24 hours, followed by incubation with 1μM Lifitegrast for an additional 24 hours. Alternatively, SH-SY5Y cells were incubated with 250μM Lifitegrast for 4 hours.

Reaction Conditions

1μM or 250μM; 24h or 4h

Applications

Lifitegrast interacts with the LNK SH2 domain and attenuates LNK-associated signaling in cellular assays.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

MRL/lpr mice

Preparation Method

MRL/lpr mice were divided into three groups. The Lifitegrast group received free access to a 0.3g/L sodium nitrite solution, and from 16 to 20 weeks of age, mice were administered an intraperitoneal injection of Lifitegrast at a dose of 15mg/kg once weekly. The experiment lasted 12 weeks.

Dosage form

15mg/kg; i.p.; once weekly for 5 weeks

Applications

Lifitegrast inhibited Itgam protein expression, reduced urinary protein and serum levels of anti-dsDNA antibodies, IL-12p70, and TNF-α, decreased spleen index, reduced double negative T cells, T follicular helper cells, and plasma cells in the spleen, alleviated kidney injury and immune complex deposition, and mitigated renal inflammatory cell infiltration and pathological scores.
