Biological target:
AG126 is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor which can prevent the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase p42MAPK (ERK2).
In vitro activity:
The effect of tyrphostin AG126 on the 7-ketocholesterol toxicity was examined in PC12 cells that are differentiated by nerve growth factor. The incidence of cell death after exposure to 100 μM 7-ketocholesterol for 24 h was about 58%. Tyrphostin AG126 significantly reduced the 100 μM 7-ketocholesterol-induced cell death. When cells were treated with 100 μM 7-ketocholesterol in the presence of 5 μM AG126, cell death decreased to 22%, which represented about 62% inhibition; beyond this concentration the inhibitory effect of AG126 was slightly decreased (Fig. 1). Although tyrphostin AG126 alone at 10 μM caused about 4% cell death, it attenuated the 7-ketocholesterol-induced cell death. Reference: Neurochem Res. 2010 Apr;35(4):603-12. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19957203/
In vivo activity:
Since AG126, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor is a potential therapeutic agent for inflammation, this study showed the protective mechanism of tyrosine kinase inhibitor AG126 treatment in BTBR mice (Fig. 1). As shown Fig. 2A, untreated BTBR mice exhibited significant increases in IL-21R-producing CD8+ T cells as compared to that in C57 control mice. However, the production of IL-21R by CD8+ T cells in BTBR mice was dramatically decreased by AG126 treatment (Fig. 2A). To determine if AG126 treatment could exert neuroprotective on BTBR mice, this study studied its effect on IL-21 production by flow cytometry. Treating BTBR mice with AG126 resulted in decreases in IL-21-producing CD8+ T cells as compared to that in untreated BTBR mice (Fig. 2B). Moreover, our results also revealed that AG126 could decrease IL-21 mRNA expression in BTBR mice (Fig. 2C) and reduce protein levels of this marker in brain tissues (Fig. 2D).
