Pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate ammonium (PDTC)

Biological Activity

Pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate ammonium (PDTC) can enhance the cell apoptosis induced by TNF-α, which may be associated with the blocking of TNF-α-activated NF-κB signaling pathway by PDTC, the down-regulation of survivin expression, and up-regulation of caspase-3 expression.in NMSC PDTC acts as pro-oxidant and enhances IR-induced cell cytotoxicity by increasing H(2)O(2)formation and thiol oxidation.PDTC and MG132, inhibitors of NF-kappaB, block ET-induced vasodilation in isolated rat skeletal muscle arterioles.PDTC has effects at both the level of the aortic segment as well as the resistance arteriole.PDTC prevents induction of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) by inhibiting translation of NOS mRNA.PDTC induces apoptosis in rat smooth muscle cells and inhibits apoptosis in leukemia HL-60 cells.

	Method	qRT-PCR
	Cell Lines	Synovial tissues
	Concentrations
	Incubation Time	24h
	Results	qRT-PCR showed that expression of IL-1α (Fig. 5r, u), IL-1β (Fig. 5s, v), and TNF-α (Fig. 5t, w) in response to LPS was significantly attenuated by PDTC and LY294002.

	Method	Detection of DC activation
	Cell Lines	DCs
	Concentrations	20 μM
	Incubation Time	2 h
	Results	The results indicated that Lp-HA-DCpep is more efficient in being englobed by DCs than Lp-HA and Lp determined by the FITC-Dextran uptake experiment (Fig. 6A) and thereby more effective in activating T cells as showed by MLR.

	Method	Western blotting
	Cell Lines	mast cells
	Concentrations	25 μM
	Incubation Time	30 minutes
	Results	The S. aureus-induced production of TNF-α and CRAMP was significantly reduced by pretreatment with the specific PI3K inhibitor Wortmannin or the specific NF-κB inhibitor PDTC

	Method	Inhibitors of innate signalling pathways
	Cell Lines	HEK cells
	Concentrations	100 μM
	Incubation Time	24 h
	Results	As expected, RELA knock-down and the presence of PDTC, an inhibitor of NFκB, resulted in substantial reduction of CXCL8 production in response to H7 flagellin by hTLR5 in the HEK background (p < 0.05)

	Method	Treatment by inhibitors
	Cell Lines	DCs
	Concentrations	20 µM
	Incubation Time	48 h
	Results	The PDTC (NF-kB inhibitor) treatment significantly decreased the MHC II, CD80, CD86, CD40 expressions. As to cytokine production (Fig. 4e–h), both inhibitors significantly restrained TNF-a, IFN-g and IL-6 secretions, with a minimal effect on IL-12p70.

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the K_m factor for a mouse and then divide by the K_m factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
