Description of LX1606 Hippurate (Telotristat etiprate)

LX1606 Hippurate (Telotristat etiprate) is an oral, systemically available, small-molecule inhibitor of peripheral serotonin (5-HT) synthesis[1]. LX1606 Hippurate inhibits tryptophan hydroxylase, thereby inhibiting the excessive production of peripheral 5-HT in the body and reducing symptoms such as defecation and other gastrointestinal issues[2]. LX1606 Hippurate has been widely used to alleviate rheumatoid arthritis and regulate MAPK signaling pathway[3].

In vitro, LX1606 Hippurate treatment for 72 hours significantly inhibited the proliferation of BON-1, QGP-1 and HROC57 cells after 72 hours, with IC50 values of 20.71μM, 23.71μM, and 11.43μM, respectively[4].

In vivo, LX1606 Hippurate treatment via oral administration at a dose of 300mg/kg/day for 6 days alleviated acute dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis and reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in mice[5].

Protocol of LX1606 Hippurate (Telotristat etiprate)

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

BON-1 cells

Preparation Method

BON-1 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), and 1% penicillin-streptomycin at 37°C in 5% CO2/atmosphere. BON-1 cells were seeded onto 96-well microplates (1×104 cells/well) and cultured for 24h. Cells were treated with the different concentrations of LX1606 Hippurate (0, 1, 5, 10, and 100μM) for 72h, cell viability was assessed.

Reaction Conditions

0, 1, 5, 10, and 100μM; 72h

Applications

LX1606 Hippurate treatment decreased the cell viability of BON-1 cells in a dose-dependent manner.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

C57BL/6 mice

Preparation Method

C57BL/6 mice (8 weeks old) were kept in sterilized, filter-topped cages under specific pathogen-free conditions and fed autoclaved food. Acute colitis was induced by giving 5% DSS in drinking water for 5 days. Mice received vehicle or LX1606 Hippurate at a dosage of 300mg/kg orally every day starting 1 day prior to administration of 5% DSS and were euthanized on day 5 post-DSS to assess disease severity.

Dosage form

300mg/kg/day; 6 days; p.o.

Applications

LX1606 Hippurate treatment significantly alleviated acute DSS-induced colitis in mice.
