Tofersen sodium
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Tofersen (BIIB067) sodium is an antisense oligonucleotide and SOD1 mRNA inhibitor with an IC50 of 320 pM. Tofersen sodium mediates RNase H-dependent degradation of SOD1 mRNA to reduce SOD1 protein levels in cerebrospinal fluid and serum. Tofersen sodium downregulates cerebrospinal fluid neurofilament light chain, neurofilament heavy chain, amyloid-beta 1-40, amyloid-beta 1-42, neuropeptide Y, ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1, neuropentraxins 1, 2, R, corticotropin-releasing hormone, IL-15, and serum neurofilament light chain, neurofilament heavy chain. Tofersen sodium can be used for the research of superoxide dismutase 1-associated amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

SOD mRNA 0.32 nM (IC50) |
Tofersen (72 h) sodium potently silences SOD1 mRNA in human HeLa cells with an IC50 of ~0.32 nM[2].
Tofersen sodium-loaded Ca2+P lipid nanoparticles (72 h) reduce SOD1 protein levels by >3.3-fold in HEK293T cells after 72 h of incubation[5].
Tofersen sodium-loaded Ca2+P lipid nanoparticles (0.78-50 nM; 1-48 h) exhibit dose- and time-dependent uptake into NSC-34 mouse motor neuron-like cells, are non-cytotoxic at concentrations up to 25 nM after 48 h, and undergo pH-dependent release of Tofersen within the cytoplasm[5].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Tofersen (0.25 mg/kg; i.v.; single dose) sodium combined with optimized FUS and microbubbles delivers 5-10% of the administered dose to mouse brain tissue, achieving >3.5-fold higher brain uptake than without FUS[5].
Tofersen (0.5 mg/kg; i.v.; once weekly; 9 weeks) sodium combined with FUS reduces SOD1 expression in targeted mouse brain cortex regions and preserves spinal cord motor neuron count without inducing neuroinflammation in G93A-SOD1 ALS mice[5].
Delivery of Tofersen (ISIS 333611) sodium to the CSF of SOD1G93A rats distributes to the brain and spinal cord, reduces spinal cord SOD1 mRNA and protein levels, and prolongs survival in this ALS model[6].
Tofersen (Intrathecal) sodium extends survival and improves muscle response function in transgenic rodent models of SOD1-mediated ALS[8].
Tofersen (Intrathecal) sodium lowers SOD1 protein concentrations in non-human primates[8].

Animal Model:B6SJL-Tg(SOD1*G93A)1Gur/J (equal numbers of male and female, pre-symptomatic 6 weeks old or symptomatic 12 weeks old)[2]
-
Dosage:42 nmol (~300 μg)
-
Administration:intracerebroventricular injection; single dose
-
Result:Extended median survival to 143 days (pre-symptomatic cohort) and 139 days (symptomatic cohort). Reduced SOD1 mRNA by 40%-60% in the cortex and cerebellum in both treatment cohorts.
-
Animal Model:B6.Cg Sod1G93A (G93A-SOD1) transgenic (9-week-old, male and female, ALS model)[6]
-
Dosage:0.5 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.v.; once weekly; 9 weeks
-
Result:Significantly reduced SOD1 fluorescence intensity in the FUS-exposed cerebral cortex compared to FUS-only or Tofersen-only control groups.
Showed no significant difference in SOD1 levels in non-FUS-exposed cerebellar regions.
Increased spinal cord motor neuron count significantly compared to both control groups.
Detected no significant increases in microglial (IBA1+ cell count) or astrocytic (GFAP fold change) activity in FUS-exposed brain regions, indicating no treatment-related neuroinflammation.
