Nedocromil calcium
Nedocromil (FPL 59002) calcium is a mast cell stabilizer and an inhibitor of IL-8 production. Nedocromil calcium inhibits mast cell degranulation and collagen synthesis induced by activated mast cells, indirectly interfering with IL-1β signaling. Nedocromil calcium reduces conjunctival eosinophil infiltration and improves the cutaneous manifestations of chronic graft-versus-host disease (including reducing fibrosis, loss of fat and hair follicles, and inflammatory infiltration). Nedocromil calcium can be used in research on chronic graft-versus-host disease, asthma, and allergic conjunctivitis.

In Vitro
Nedocromil sodium (10-5 mol/L; 4 h) prevents the increased expression of IL-8 mRNA induced by IL-1β in cultured human bronchial epithelial cells[2].

-
Cell Line:Human neutrophils and human bronchial epithelial cells
-
Concentration:up to 10^-5 mol/L
-
Incubation Time:8 h
-
Result:Did not significantly affect the chemotactic activity of epithelial cell-conditioned media at concentrations up to 10^-5 mol/L.
-
Cell Line:Human bronchial epithelial cells
-
Concentration:10^-5 mol/L (preincubation); 5 ng/mL (IL-1β)
-
Incubation Time:3-5 h (preincubation); 8 h (IL-1β stimulation)
-
Result:Reduced the release of immunoreactive IL-8 by >50% when added 3 to 5 hours before IL-1β.
Significantly reduced the release of immunoreactive IL-8 induced by IL-1β in a dose-dependent manner when preincubated for 4 hours.
Did not modify the constitutive release of IL-8 at concentrations up to 10^-5 mol/L.

-
Animal Model:BALB/c (female, 6-10 weeks, 20-25 g)[1]
-
Dosage:5 mg/mouse
-
Administration:i.p.; daily; 15 days
-
Result:Decreased the mean dermis/fat ratio to 1.5 compared to 4.0 in saline-treated cGVHD mice.
Normalized skin mast cell numbers from 1.71 to 2.95.
Increased peritoneal mast cell numbers to 1.45 compared to 0.25 in controls.
