Bioactivity | JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride is a selective, orally active, and high-affinity histamine H4 receptor antagonist, with Kis of 12.5, 5.3, and 25 nM for human, mouse, and monkey histamine H4 receptor, respectively. JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride functionally antagonizes histamine-induced cAMP inhibition with a pA2 of 7.9 in transfected cells. JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride shows good anti-inflammatory and antipruritic activity[1][2]. |
Invitro | JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride is a selective, high-affinity histamine H4 receptor antagonist with a Ki of 12.5 nM versus the human H4 receptor and functionally antagonizes histamine-induced cAMP inhibition with a pA2 of 7.9 in transfected cells. At the mouse H4R, the Ki=5.3 nM and the pA2=8.3. At the monkey H4R, the Ki=25 nM and the pA2=7.5. The affinity for the rat (Ki=188 nM, pA2 = 7.2) and guinea pig H4R (Ki=306 nM) is moderate, and JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride has little if any affinity for the dog H4R (Ki≥10 μM). The compound is highly selective for H4R, as it exhibits low affinity for the H1, H2, and H3 receptors[1].JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride is metabolically stable (t1/2 >120 min) when incubated in vitro with human, rat, dog, or monkey liver microsomes[1]. |
In Vivo | JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride (10 mg/kg; p.o.) treatment shows that the Cmax, t1/2 and F values are 0.3 μM, 7.5 hours, 36%, respectively[1].JNJ-39758979 dihydrochloride (2 mg/kg; i.v.) treatment shows that the Vss, AUC, CL and t1/2 were 19.9 L/kg, 1.4 μM*h, 2.2 L/h, and 2.1 hours, respectively [1].
