Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Features	A potent and selective secretory phospholipase A2 inhibitor.
Targets/IC₅₀/Ki	hnsPLA2 ^[1] (Cell-free assay) 7 nM
In vitro	Varespladib (LY315920) exhibits a significant inhibitory effect on sPLA2 activity in serum from various species including rat, rabbit, guinea pig and human with IC50 of 8.1 nM, 5.0 nM, 3.2 nM and 6.2 nM, respectively. ^[2] In BAL cells challenged with human sPLA2, this compound at doses ranging from 0.1 μM–3 μM reduces the formation of thromboxane mediated by human sPLA2 in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of approximately 0.8 μM. ^[2] In human conjunctival epithelial cell line (HCjE), it (10 μM) significantly inhibits all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) -induced membrane-associated mucin MUC16 expression by 100% at 24 hours and 99% at 48 hours. ^[3]
In vivo	Ex vivo, LY315920 at doses ranging from 3 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg via i.v. inhibits human sPLA2-induced release of thromboxane from guinea pig BAL cells with ED50 of 16.1 mg/kg. ^[2] In Transgenic Mice Expressing Human sPLA2, both oral and i.v. administration of this compound (0.3 mg/kg–3 mg/kg) abolishes serum sPLA2 activity in a dose and time dependent manner. ^[2]
