R112 is a novel, potent and ATP-competitive inhibitor of Syk kinase with a Ki of 96 nM. R112 prevented degranulation brought on by allergen (dust mite) in basophils (histamine release, EC(50) = 490 nmol/L), anti-IgE cross-linking in mast cells (tryptase release, effective concentration for 50% inhibition [EC(50)] = 353 nmol/L), or both. R112 also inhibited the production of leukotriene C4 and every proinflammatory cytokine that was examined. R112 was found to be an ATP-competitive spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) inhibitor by subsequent molecular characterization (inhibitory constant [K(i)] = 96 nmol/L). It had a rapid onset of action and reversible inhibition. Mast cells incubated with R112 demonstrated that prolonged activation of the FcvarepsilonRI-Lyn-spleen tyrosine kinase pathway was necessary for mast cell cytokine production. R112 was able to totally inhibit the three IgE-induced mast cell functions of degranulation, lipid mediator production, and cytokine production, in contrast to other mast cell inhibitors. IgE receptor cross-linking-induced mast cell activation cascades were all potently, totally, and quickly abrogated by R112. R112 and its derivatives present a novel approach to the management of allergic rhinorrhea.

R112 (0.001-10 μM; 1 h) prevents the release of histamine and anti-IgE-mediated tryptase with EC50s of 0.353 and 0.28 μM, the release of histamine when basophils are stimulated with an EC50 value of 0.49 μM, and the release of LTC4, TNF-α, GM-CSF, and IL-8 with EC50s of 0.115, 2.01, 1.58, and 1.75 μM, respectively[1]. R112 (0-10 μM; 40 min) reduces the phosphorylation of the Syk target LAT (Y191)[1]. |
| Cell Assay |
Cell Line: Human mast cells Concentration: 0.4, 2 and 10 μM Incubation Time: 40 min Result: Inhibited phosphorylation of the Syk target LAT (Y191) and also inhibited phosphorylation of Syk downstream events. |

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 27.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.
