Bioactivity | AZD2098 is a potent and selective CC-chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) inhibitor with pIC50s of 7.8, 8.0, 8.0 and 7.6 for human, rat, mouse and dog respectively, used for asthma research[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | AZD2098 potently inhibits chemokine-induced cellular responses, with pIC50 of 7.5 and 6.3 against CCL22-induced Ca2+ influx in hCCR4-expressing CHO cells and CCL17- or CCL22-induced chemotaxis of primary human Th2 cells respectively[1]. | ||||||||||||
In Vivo | AZD2098 (73.5-5.0 μg/kg; p.o.; BID; twice a day; 1 hour before and every 12 hours after antigen challenge) exhibits efficacy against antigen-induced inflammatory response among ovalbumin-sensitized rats, and the changes are first visible at a dose of 0.22 µmol/kg and maximal at 7.5 µmol/kg[1].
