Talarozole (R115866) CYP450 inhibitor

Talarozole (R115866) is a potent, orally active inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP26)-mediated metabolism of All-trans-retinoic acid (RA). It inhibits the conversion of RA by CYP26, with an IC50 of 0.004 µM, and enhances endogenous RA levels and All-trans-retinoic acid receptor (RAR) activation, showing potential as a targeted agent for dermatological therapy.

Mechanism of Action

In Vivo

In vivo

A maximum 84% inhibition of CYP26 activity at 0.5 hours post-dose is predicted based on Talarozole (TLZ) Cmax of 80 nM and a Ki of 1 nM following a single dose of Talarozole. Due to the short Talarozole half-life (2.2 hrs) CYP26 activity is predicted to return to 100% by 12 hours. In agreement with the predictions, atRA concentrations are increased by 82, 63 and 60% at 4 hours post-dose in the serum, liver and testes, respectively, and concentrations returned to baseline by 24 hours. Following multiple doses of Talarozole, liver CYP26 mRNA and activity are increased suggesting autoinduction of CYP26 due to increased atRA concentrations. In agreement, atRA concentrations are elevated in serum and liver at all timepoints measured. This increase in atRA concentrations is associated with increased mRNA of the mitochondrial biogenesis markers PGC-1β and NRF-1 in comparison to control mice.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

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.
