Synthesis, Physicochemical Characteristics and Plausible Mechanism of Action of an Immunosuppressive Isoxazolo[5,4-e]-1,2,4-Triazepine Derivative (RM33).

ABSTRACT: Previous studies demonstrated strong anti-inflammatory properties of isoxazolo[5,4-e]-1,2,4-triazepine (RM33) in vivo. The aim of this investigation was to describe synthesis, determine physicochemical characteristics, evaluate biological activities in murine and human in vitro models, as well as to propose mechanism of action of the compound. The compound was devoid of cell toxicity up to 100 μg/mL against a reference A549 cell line. Likewise, RM33 did not induce apoptosis in these cells. The compound stimulated concanavalin A (ConA)-induced splenocyte proliferation but did not change the secondary humoral immune response in vitro to sheep erythrocytes. Nevertheless, a low suppressive effect was registered on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced splenocyte proliferation and a stronger one on
