PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of RCI001 (RCI) in a mouse model of primary Sjögren syndrome.
METHODS: Eight 12-week-old NOD.B10-H2b mice were used in this study. All experimental animals were randomly divided into phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and RCI groups in NOD.B10-H2b mice. The eyes of mice were topically treated with PBS or RCI twice a day for a week. Ocular surface staining (OSS) and tear secretion were compared between before and after treatment. The transcript levels of inflammatory cytokines and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX) in the conjunctiva and cornea (CC) and lacrimal gland were assayed. In addition, immunofluorescence staining of the conjunctiva was assessed.
RESULTS: The RCI group showed significant clinical improvement in OSS and tear secretion after 1 week of treatment compared with the baseline (both P < 0.001) and showed better improvement in OSS and tear secretion than the PBS group after 1 week of treatment (both P < 0.05). The levels of IL-1β and IL-17 in CC and IL-6 in the lacrimal gland were also significantly reduced in the RCI group compared with the PBS group (each P < 0.05). Transcript levels of NOX2 and NOX4 were also significantly reduced in CC of the RCI group compared with those of the PBS group ( P < 0.05). The RCI group also resulted in lower conjunctival expression of oxidative stress markers (4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, hexanoyl-lysine, and NOX4) than the PBS group.
CONCLUSIONS: Topical RCI001 demonstrated excellent therapeutic efficacy in a mouse model of primary Sjögren syndrome by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress.
