Apilimod

Synonyms: STA-5326

Apilimod is a potent and orally-available inhibitor of the cytokines interleukin-12 (IL-12) and interleukin-23 (IL-23) with the potential to treat certain autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Apilimod (STA-5326) inhibits IL-12 with IC50 of 1 nM, 1 nM and 2 nM, in IFN-γ/SAC-stimulated human PBMCs, human monocytes and mouse PBMCs, respectively. Apilimod (STA-5326) is also a cell permeable small molecule that specifically inhibits PIKfyve with IC50 of 14 nM.

Biological Activity

Description Apilimod is a potent and orally-available inhibitor of the cytokines interleukin-12 (IL-12) and interleukin-23 (IL-23) with the potential to treat certain autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Apilimod (STA-5326) inhibits IL-12 with IC50 of 1 nM, 1 nM and 2 nM, in IFN-γ/SAC-stimulated human PBMCs, human monocytes and mouse PBMCs, respectively. Apilimod (STA-5326) is also a cell permeable small molecule that specifically inhibits PIKfyve with IC50 of 14 nM.

Apilimod selectively inhibits TLR-induced cytokine expression. It selectively inhibits the production of IL12p40, whereas it has little effect on IL8 production in THP-1 cells[1].

Apilimod reduces not only PtdIns(3,5)P2 production but also that of PtdIns5P in intact cells[2].

Cell Research Cell lines HeLa cells
Concentrations 10 nM and 1 μM
Incubation Time 120 min
Method

HeLa cells are metabolically labeled with [3H]inositol for 72 hr and treated with two doses of apilimod or the inactive analog API09 for 120 min. Lipids are extracted, deacetylated, and analyzed by HPLC.

In Vivo
In vivo

Apilimod is a first-in-class PIKfyve kinase inhibitor for treatment of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
