Description

E6446 is a potent and orally acitve TLR7 and TLR9 antagonist, used in the research of deleterious inflammatory responses. E6446 is also a potent SCD1 inhibitor (KD: 4.61 μM), significantly inhibiting adipogenic differentiation and hepatic lipogenesis through SCD1-ATF3 signaling. E6446 also improves liver pathology in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice and may be useful in the study of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)[1][2][3].

In Vitro

E6446 is a potent and orally acitve TLR7 and TLR9 inhibitor. E6446 potently suppresses DNA stimulation of HEK:TLR9 cells, with an IC50 value of 10 nM, but is significantly less effective at suppressing LPS endotoxin stimulation of HEK:TLR4 cells or R848 stimulation of HEK:TLR7 cells. E6446 potently inhibits IL-6 production induced by CpG2216 but is ineffective against induction by the TLR3 ligand poly inosine-cytosine. The ability of E6446 to inhibit TLR7 is ligand dependent, E6446 is a potent inhibitor of IL-6 induction by RNA but a relatively poor inhibitor of IL-6 induction by the small molecule imidazoquinoline ligand R-848. E6446 suppress TLR9-DNA interaction in vitro, with an IC50 in the 1 to 10 µM range[1]. E6446 (0.01-0.03 μM) specifically inhibits TLR9 activation with CpG ODN 2006, and blocks TLR7/8 activated by the imidazoquinoline compound R848 at 2-8 μM. E6446 reduces 50% of TLR4 activation at 30 μM, and shows IC50s of 0.01 μM and 0.23 μM in HEK-TLR9 cells stimulated with oligo 2006 and in human PBMCs stimulated with oligo 2216, respectively[2].

In Vivo

E6446 (20 mg/kg, p.o.) almost cmlpletely inhibits CpG1668-induced IL-6 production, and dose-dependently suppresses the development of ANA (anti-nuclear antibodies) in mice at 20 and 60 mg/kg[1]. E6446 (20, 60 mg/kg, p.o.) dose-dependently inhibits TLR9 signaling in mice. E6446 (60, 120 mg/kg, p.o.) prevents hyperresponsiveness of TLRs and LPS-induced septic shock in rodent malaria, diminishes TLR responsiveness during acute malaria, suppresses activation of both TLR7 and TLR9[2].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 0.83 mg/mL (1.85 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.83 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (8.3 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

Cell Assay
[1]

E6446 is assayed for the suppression of BALB/c mouse spleen interleukin-6 (IL-6) production in response to stimulation by oligonucleotide CpG1668. E6446 is added to dissociated splenocytes (5 × 105 per well in complete RPMI/10% fetal bovine serum in a 96-well plate) before addition of TLR agonists. Cells are stimulated for 72 hours, and supernatants are removed for ELISA analysis of IL-6. Mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) are generated by culturing BALB/c marrow cells in RPMI containing 100 ng/mL Flt3 ligand for 7 days. Cells (1 × 105) in 50 μL are assayed for IL-6 production after overnight or 24-hour stimulation with various TLR ligands. For studies using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, Ficoll-separated mononuclear cells are isolated from healthy volunteer donors, washed, and plated with stimulatory oligonucleotide CpG2216 in complete RPMI for 72 hours. Interferon in supernatant is quantified by ELISA[1].

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice[1]
MRL/lpr mice are dosed orally five times a week with 20 or 60 mg/kg E6446 or 60 mg/kg hydroxychloroquine beginning at 5 weeks of age. Cytoxan is administered at 50 mg/kg i.p. every 10 days. A serum sample is taken immediately before the beginning of treatment to monitor changes in autoreactive antibodies. Subsequently, serum samples are collected approximately monthly and analyzed for anti-dsDNA by ELISA after 1:500 dilution. Body weights and urine samples are taken at the same interval, and proteinuria is assessed by ChemStrips. Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) are assessed using commercially available HEp2 slide kits, with serum diluted to 1:100 in kit buffer. ANA scores are read blinded[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
