| ln Vitro | (S)-Ro 32-0432 suppresses the release of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and the expression of IL-2 receptors in peripheral human T-cells stimulated with phorbol ester in combination with phytohemagglutin or anti-CD3. However, it has no effect on the proliferation of IL-2-induced cells that have already been stimulated to express IL-2 receptors. The influenza peptide antigen HA 307-319-specific human T-cell clone (HA27) is also blocked by (S)-Ro 32-0432 from proliferating after being exposed to antigen-pulsed autologous presentation cells. HA27 proliferation is inhibited by (S)-Ro 32-0432, with an IC50 of 0.15 μM[1]. |
| ln Vivo | Treatment with (S)-Ro 32-0432 (10–50 mg/kg; oral dose; once; female AHH/R rats) prevents edema produced by phorbol ester in rats later on, indicating the compound's systemic effectiveness in suppressing PKC-driven reactions. Ro 32-0432 also inhibits the induction of more physiologically driven T-cell responses, such as host versus graft responses and subsequent paw edema in adjuvant-induced arthritis[1]. |
| Enzyme Assay | The protein kinase C (PKC) family of isoenzymes is believed to mediate a wide range of signal-transduction pathways in many different cell types. A series of bisindolylmaleimides have been evaluated as inhibitors of members of the conventional PKC family (PKCs-alpha, -beta, -gamma) and of a representative of the new, Ca(2+)-independent, PKC family, PKC-epsilon. In contrast with the indolocarbazole staurosporine, all the bisindolylmaleimides investigated showed slight selectivity for PKC-alpha over the other isoenzymes examined. In addition, bisindolylmaleimides bearing a conformationally restricted side-chain were less active as inhibitors of PKC-epsilon. Most noticeable of these was Ro 32-0432, which showed a 10-fold selectivity for PKC-alpha and a 4-fold selectivity for PKC-beta I over PKC-epsilon[Biochem J. 1993 Sep 1;294 ( Pt 2)(Pt 2):335-7]. |
| Cell Assay | Several lines of circumstantial evidence support the assumption that protein kinase C (PKC) activation together with elevated levels of cytosolic Ca++ are necessary for T-cell activation and proliferation in response to a physiological stimulus, i.e., MHC class II restricted antigen presentation. By using a potent, cell-permeable and selective inhibitor of PKC, Ro 32-0432, we have tested this hypothesis. Ro 32-0432 inhibits interleukin-2 (IL-2) secretion, IL-2 receptor expression in, and proliferation of, peripheral human T-cells stimulated with phorbol ester together with phytohemagglutin or anti-CD3, but does not inhibit IL-2 induced proliferation in cells already stimulated to express IL-2 receptors. Proliferation of the influenza peptide antigen HA 307-319-specific human T-cell clone (HA27) after exposure to antigen-pulsed autologous presenting cells was also inhibited by Ro 32-0432[2]. |

Proliferation of the influenza peptide antigen HA 307-319-specific human T-cell clone (HA27) after exposure to antigen-pulsed autologous presenting cells was also inhibited by Ro 32-0432. Oral administration of Ro 32-0432 inhibited subsequent phorbol ester-induced edema in rats demonstrating the systemic efficacy of the compound to inhibit PKC-driven responses. Induction of more physiologically T-cell driven responses such as host vs. graft responses and the secondary paw swelling in adjuvant-induced arthritis were also inhibited by Ro 32-0432. These data demonstrate the crucial role for PKC in T-cell activation and that selective p.o. bioavailable PKC inhibitors are efficacious in preventing T-cell driven chronic inflammatory responses in vivo. Inhibition of PKC represents an important mechanistic approach to prevent T-cell activation and compounds of this class may have important therapeutic applicability to chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.[1] G protein-coupled receptor kinase 5 is noted to mediate a number of signal transduction cascades involved in the causation of nicotine withdrawal syndrome. Therefore, the present study investigated the effect of Ro 32-0432, a G protein-coupled receptor kinase 5 inhibitor, on propagation of nicotine dependence and resultant withdrawal signs in subchronic nicotine mouse model. Our experimental protocol consisted of administration of nicotine, (2.5 mg/kg, subcutaneously), four times daily for 7 days. In order to precipitate nicotine withdrawal, mice were given one injection of mecamylamine (3 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) 1 h after the last nicotine injection on the test day (day 8). Behavioral observations were made for a period of 30 min immediately after mecamylamine treatment. Withdrawal syndrome was quantitated in terms of a composite withdrawal severity score, jumping frequency, nicotine-induced hyperalgesia by tail flick method, and withdrawal syndrome-related anxiety was assessed by elevated plus maze test results. Ro 32-0432 dose dependently attenuated mecamylamine-induced nicotine withdrawal syndrome in mice. It is concluded that Ro 32-0432 attenuates the propagation of nicotine dependence and reduce withdrawal signs possibly by G protein-coupled receptor kinase 5 activation-linked mechanisms.[2] |
