Bioactivity | GW-311616 is a potent, orally bioavailable, long duration and selective human neutrophil elastase (HNE) inhibitor with IC50 value of 22 nM and Ki value of 0.31 nM[1]. |
Target | IC50: 22 nM (HNE)Ki: 0.31 nM (HNE) |
Invitro | GW-311616 (150 μM; 48 hours) markedly suppresses NE activity in U937 and K562 cells lines[2].GW311616A (20-320 μM; 48 hours; U937 cells) treatment inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in leukemia cells[2].GW-311616 (150 μM; U937 cells) treatment can increase the protein expression levels of Bax and decrease the expression of Bcl-2[2]. Cell Viability Assay[2] Cell Line: |
In Vivo | GW-311616 (2 mg/kg; oral administration) rapidly abolishes the circulation of neutrophil elastase (NE) in dogs, while >90% inhibition is maintained for 4 days. This prolonged effect is independent to be due to penetration of neutrophils in bone marrow by orally administrated GW-311616. GW-311616 has moderate terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of 1.1 hours and 1.5 hours for dog (2 mg/kg, oral), rat (2 mg/kg, oral), respectively[3]. Animal Model: |
