NZ-97 is a locally deliverable, lung-retaining dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitor with an IC50 of 18 nM. It exhibits selectivity for DPP8 and DPP9 (with IC50 values of 1.3 μM and 0.6 μM, respectively). NZ-97 inhibits the DPP4 pool in lung-resident cells and epithelial lining fluid, elevates IL-6 and IGF-1 levels, and induces the expansion of type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AEC2). NZ-97 reduces protein content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), ameliorates lung injury and alleviates pulmonary fibrosis. NZ-97 shows tolerability in untreated Mus musculus mice after intratracheal administration, and does not alter the proliferation or differentiation of lung fibroblasts. NZ-97 can be used in studies related to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, acute lung injury and emphysema .
