OBJECTIVETo investigate whether pyrrolidinone derivative (N2733), an inhibitor of nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB activation, improves altered metabolic and hemodynamic changes and organ dysfunctions caused by endotoxic shock.DESIGN AND SETTINGProspective, randomized, animal study in a laboratory at a university hospital.SUBJECTSTwenty-three anesthetized male beagle dogs (10-14 kg).INTERVENTIONSDogs were mechanically ventilated and monitored with a pulmonary arterial catheter and a gastric tonometer. A central venous catheter was inserted into the femoral vein, and lactated Ringer's solution (10 ml/kg per hour) was administered throughout the study period. Three groups of animals were studied: (a) the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group (n=8), which received LPS (250 ng/kg per minute for 2 h); (b) the LPS plus N2733 group (n=8), which received N2733 (30 mg/kg intravenously and 10 mg/kg hour for 6 h) after the start of LPS; and (c) the N2733 group (n=7), which received N2733 (30 mg/kg intravenously and 10 mg/kg per hour for 6 h).MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTSChanges in hemodynamics, blood gas, gastric intramural pH, and renal and hepatic function were measured for 6 h. Coadministration of N2733 increased oxygen delivery index and prevented the LPS-induced hypotension, metabolic acidosis, and gastric mucosal acidosis but did not affect renal or hepatic function.CONCLUSIONSAdministration of N2733 increased oxygen delivery index and prevented the LPS-induced hypotension and metabolic and gastric mucosal acidosis in an anesthetized canine endotoxic shock model, suggesting its beneficial effect on local blood flow against tissue hypoxia. These findings suggest that blockade of NF-kappaB activation prevents hypodynamic shock and gastric hypoperfusin in endotoxic shock.

We previously showed that 1-[3-(3-pyridyl)-acryloyl]-2-pyrrolidinone hydrochloride (N2733) inhibits lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha secretion and improves the survival of endotoxemic mice. Since overproduction of nitric oxide (NO) by inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is largely responsible for the development of endotoxemic shock, and iNOS gene expression is mainly regulated by LPS and inflammatory cytokines, we studied whether or not N2733 affects interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced iNOS gene expression, NF-kappaB activation, and NF-kappaB inhibitor (IkappaB)-alpha degradation in cultured rat VSMCs. N2733 dose-dependently (10-100 microM) inhibited IL-1beta-stimulated NO production, and decreased IL-1beta-induced iNOS mRNA and protein expression, as found on Northern and Western blot analyses, respectively. Gel shift assay and an immunocytochemical study showed that N2733 inhibited IL-1beta-induced NF-kappaB activation and its nuclear translocation. Western blot analyses involving anti-IkappaB-alpha and anti-phospho IkappaB-alpha antibodies showed that IL-1beta induced transient degradation of IkappaB-alpha preceded by the rapid appearance of phosphorylated IkappaB-alpha, both of which were markedly blocked by N2733. N2733 blocked IL-1beta-induced phosphorylated IkappaB-alpha even in the presence of a proteasome inhibitor (MG115). Immunoblot analysis involving anti-IkappaB kinase (IKK)-alpha and anti-phosphoserine antibodies revealed that N2733 inhibited IL-1beta-induced IKK-alpha phosphorylation, whereas N2733 had no inhibitory effect on IL-1beta-stimulated p42/p44 MAP kinase or p38 MAP kinase activity. Our results suggest that the inhibitory action of N2733 toward IL-1beta-induced NF-kappaB activation and iNOS expression is due to its blockade of the upstream signal(s) leading to IKK-alpha activation, and subsequent phosphorylation and degradation of IkappaB-alpha in rat VSMCs.

N2733, 1-[3-(3-pyridyl)-acryloyl]-2-pyrrolidinone hydrochloride, was examined for its effect on TNF-alpha production by human myeloid THP-1 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). N2733 inhibited LPS-induced release of TNF-alpha from THP-1 cells with an IC50 of 11 microM. N2733 did not affect the cell viability at the concentration of 50 microM or 100 microM. This indicates that N2733 is a potent inhibitor for TNF-alpha production without severe cytotoxicity. N2733 was also studied in two murine endotoxin shock models induced with LPS. One model was DBA/2 mice injected with LPS (5.6 mg/kg, i.v.), which increased the serum level of TNF-alpha within 1 hr. Treatment of these mice with N2733 (100 mg/kg x 2, i.p.) decreased the serum level of TNF-alpha significantly. Another model was DBA/2 mice induced with LPS (30 mg/kg, i.v.), which reduced the survival rate to 30% during 7 days. Administrations of 30 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg N2733 (i.v.) restored the survival rates to 60% and 90% respectively. Our data demonstrate that N2733 inhibits LPS-induced TNF-alpha production, and this response is associated with an improvement in the survival rate of endotoxemic mice.
