LY3972406
LY3972406 is an orally active, selective Kv1.3 antagonist. LY3972406 acts on chronically stimulated effector memory T cells without affecting naive central memory T cells. LY3972406 induces mild, non-adverse skin irritation in Rattus norvegicus. LY3972406 is applicable for the research of autoimmune diseases.

In Vivo
LY3972406 (100 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) achieves equivalent exposure to the HCl salt in female Sprague-Dawley rats, with slightly faster absorption[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley (male and female, aged 7 to 11 weeks, males 187 to 514 g, females 146 to 308 g)[2]
-
Dosage:300 mg/kg/day
-
Administration:p.o.; daily; 28 days
-
Result:Observed 100% survival.
Caused minor, nonadverse salivation (slight intensity, Days 8 through 22) at similar incidence and severity as the LY3972406-HCl group.
Resulted in exposure comparable to the HCl salt (within 20% by AUC and Cmax) with no accumulation (R_AUC <1.2).

Protocols
-
Dermal Irritation/Dermal Toxicity Study
This protocol assesses dermal irritation using reconstructed human epidermis (RhE) models such as EpiDerm, EPISKIN, and SkinEthic RHE, in which a test substance is applied topically and tissue viability is measured after exposure; reduced viability reflects cytotoxic injury associated with skin irritation potential. The primary readout is MTT reduction, where viable cells convert tetrazolium salt into colored formazan measured by spectrophotometry; this signal is used as a quantitative viability endpoint for classifying irritant versus non-irritant responses. The historical in vivo comparator is the Draize rabbit skin irritation method, which scores erythema and edema after topical exposure, but validated RhE assays were developed to replace or reduce reliance on this animal-based endpoint.
