MedKoo CAT#: 319502

CAS#: 356057-34-6

Description: Darapladib, also known as SB-480848, is a reversible lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) inhibitor with IC50 of 0.25 nM, which is in Phase 3 trials. Recent studies showed that risk of major coronary events not reduced by darapladib therapy. In patients with stable coronary heart disease, darapladib did not significantly reduce the risk of the primary composite end point of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke.

Product Data:
Biological target: Darapladib is a potent inhibitor of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) with IC50 of 0.25 nM.
In vitro activity: In this study, we evaluated the anti-glioma effects of darapladib, a selective reversible inhibitor of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) that is encoded by the PLA2G7 gene and serves as a predictive biomarker of sub-clinical inflammation in cardiovascular diseases. The three glioma cell lines (rat C6 glioma cell line, human U87MG, and human U251MG) and an ex vivo brain tissue slice-glioma cell co-culture system were used to validate the inhibitory effect of darapladib on the expansion of glioma cells. Exposure to darapladib at doses higher than 5 μM induced profound cytotoxicity in C6, U87MG, and U251MG. Moreover, the colony formation ability of the glioma cell lines was significantly repressed after the addition of darapladib. Although darapladib did not reduce the generation of the Lp-PLA2 downstream molecule, arachidonic acid (AA), in the glioma cells, this small compound triggered mitochondrial membrane depolarization and cell apoptosis in these glioma cells. In addition, transient exposure to darapladib induced the upregulation of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) levels, but reduced phosphorylation of AKT/PKB (protein kinase B).

In vivo activity: The principal aim of this study was to examine whether darapladib (a selective Lp-PLA2 inhibitor) could reduce the elevated LpPLA2 and Rho kinase activity in atherosclerosis. Studies were performed in male Sprague-Dawley rats. The atherosclerosis rats were prepared by feeding them with a high-cholesterol diet for 10 weeks. Levels of TC, LDL-C, CRP, Lp-PLA2, and Rho kinase activity were respectively reduced in darapladib groups, whereas NO production was enhanced. When compared to the low-dose darapladib group, the reduction of the levels of TC, LDL-C, CRP, and Lp-PLA2 was more prominent in the high-dose darapladib group (p<0.05), and the increase of NO production was more prominent (p<0.05). Cardiomyocyte apoptosis of the high-dose darapladib group was also significantly reduced compared to the low-dose darapladib group (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in Rho kinase activity between the low-dose darapladib group and the high-dose darapladib group (p>0.05). In conclusion, darapladib, a LpPLA2 inhibitor, leads to cardiovascular protection that might be mediated by its inhibition of both Rho kinase and Lp-PLA2 in atherosclerosis.
