Background:

(±) -CPSI 1306 is an inhibitor of macrophage inhibitory factor (MIF) [1].

MIF is a proinflammatory cytokine and is an important regulation element of innate immunity. MIF plays an important role in the pathogenesis of many autoimmune inflammatory diseases [1].

In Skh-1 hairless mice with UVB exposure, CPSI 1306 reduced myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and skin thickness and increased p53 expression and keratinocyte apoptosis. In mice with squamous carcinogenesis, CPSI-1306 slowed tumor growth and reduced p53 foci in non-tumor skin [1]. In ICR mice with streptozotocin (STZ) -induced non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), CPSI 1306 significantly decreased blood glucose levels and reduced the levels of IL-6 and TNF-ɑ, the proinflammatory cytokines. These results suggested that MIF was involved in the pathogenesis of NIDDM [2]. In wild-type C57Bl/6 mice immunized with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG35–55), which induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), CPSI-1306 (1 mg/kg) reduced the inflammation and reduced the severity of disease [3].
