Product Description

Tarenflurbil [(R)-Flurbiprofen], the R-enantiomer of flurbiprofen, is a novel and potent activator of c-Jun N terminal kinase. Also reduce Aβ secretion, but at the same time, increases the level of intracellular Aβ. May be used for Alzheimer's disease.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
(R)-Flurbiprofen, or tartenflurbil, has the ability to dramatically lower Aβ release while simultaneously raising intracellular Aβ levels. Both 9-cis-RA and unlabeled (R)-flurbiprofen competitively block the interaction of [3H]9-cis-RA with RXRα. (9-cis-retinoid acid, or 9-cis-RA) inhibits Tarenflurbil ((R)-Flurbiprofen)'s lowering of Aβ secretion, and (R)-Flurbiprofen can interfere with the interaction between RXRα and 9-cis-RA). The intracellular Aβ species levels are markedly increased upon treatment with tartenflurbil ((R)-Flurbiprofen)[1]. It is evident that second generation GSMs and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-based GSMs have different mechanisms of action with regard to Notch processing because Tarenflurbil ((R) )-Flurbiprofen, a well-known nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, affects only Aβ and does not affect Notch β formation[2].
ln Vivo
In C57BL6/J mice that develop a non-remitting form of the disease and in SJL mice that develop a relapsing-remitting (RR)-EAE, the effects of both an early and late start of treatment with Tarenflurbil ((R)-Flurbiprofen) are evaluated. When administered within three days of immunization, tartenflurbil ((R)-Flurbiprofen) totally prevents the development of clinical EAE scores in C57BL6/J mice. We call this regimen "preventive treatment." Since the effect is dose-dependent, 5 mg/kg/day is the minimal daily dose required for full prevention. The positive control, Fingolimod (FTY720, 0.5 mg/kg/day), has effects similar to those of Tarenflurbil ((R)-Flurbiprofen). In C57BL6/J mice, tareflurbil ((R)-Flurbiprofen) also significantly lowers clinical EAE scores when treatment is started just prior to the onset of clinical manifestations, a strategy known as semi-therapeutic (10 mg/kg/day), and when treatment is started on day 13 (5 mg/g/day), after the disease has fully developed[3].
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Metabolism / Metabolites
Flurbiprofen has known human metabolites that include (2S,3S,4S,5R)-6-[(2R)-2-(3-fluoro-4-phenylphenyl)propanoyl]oxy-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid.

Additional Infomation
(R)-flurbiprofen is a flurbiprofen. It is an enantiomer of a (S)-flurbiprofen.
Tarenflurbil is an investigational drug that was studied in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease. It is a selective amyloid lowering agent (SALA) that reduces levels of the toxic peptide amyloid beta 42 (Aβ42) in cultured human cells and in animal models. Aβ42 is the primary initiator of neurotoxicity and amyloid plaque development in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. In June 2008 development of the drug for Alzheimer's disease was discontinued. Tarenflurbil has also been used in trials studying the treatment of Prostate Cancer.
Tarenflurbil is an orally active synthetic enantiomer of flurbiprofen. Tarenflurbil activates c-Jun N terminal kinase, increases AP-1 binding to DNA, and downregulates cyclin D1 expression, resulting in arrest of tumor cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle and apoptosis. This agent also affects the expression of nuclear factor kappa B, a rapid response transcription factor that stimulates the immune response to tumor cells. R-flurbiprofen does not inhibit the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase.
Drug Indication
Investigated for use/treatment in alzheimer's disease and prostate cancer.
Mechanism of Action
MPC-7869 is not an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2). The compound modulates the signal transduction and transcription activation pathways associated with nuclear factor kappaB (NFkappaB), a principle transcription factor in the expression of many molecules involved in cell growth, cell death and inflammation. In addition, MPC-7869 has recently been shown to modulate gamma-secretase and selectively lower levels of Abeta42 peptide in vitro and in vivo, and to reduce amyloid pathology in the brain. MPC-7869 has an excellent safety profile and is very potent in animal models of cancer and Alzheimer's disease. In transgenic mouse studies, MPC-7869 reduced brain amyloid levels and prevented memory loss.

  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
