Description
A natural aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonist with anti-inflammatory properties; binds and activates AhR in multiple cell types, moderates proinflammatory cytokine expression in stimulated peripheral blood CD4+ T cells and ex vivo human skin, and impacts barrier gene expression in primary human keratinocytes; shows no impact on imiquimod-induced skin inflammation in AhR-deficient mice.Psoriasis Phase 3 Clinical (In Vitro) :Tapinarof activates the AhR pathway through direct binding. Tapinarof dose-dependently induces nuclear translocation of AhR in immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT) (EC50=0.16 nM) . (In Vivo) :Tapinarof acts through AhR to reduce inflammation in IMQ-treated mice. AhR-sufficient mice on a C57Bl/6 background exhibit a reduced clinical score after treatment with Tapinarof or 6-formylindolo (3,2-b) carbazole (FICZ) . In contrast, AhR KO mice do not respond to the anti-inflammatory effects of Tapinarof. FICZ is used as a comparator in these studies and yields similar results, with dramatically reduced inflammatory responses in wild-type, but not AhR KO mice.
