Some carbamoylphosphonates (CPOs) inhibit matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Although MMPs are involved in inflammatory processes, the anti-inflammatory activity of CPOs has not been reported. In this context we compared the biological activity of the three aminoCPOs, PYR-CPO, PIP-CPO and cis-ACCP. We were particularly interested in their capability to modulate the secretion of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα). LPS-activated mouse peritoneal macrophages and LPS-activated mouse splenocytes were used to explore this question. It was found that the aminoCPOs were able to reduce TNFα secretion to a level equivalent to the reduction caused by the steroid drug budesonide (BUD). The reduction in TNFα levels was neither accompanied by cytotoxicity, nor did it inhibit cell proliferation. To explicate whether the aminoCPOs affect TNFα processing by TNFα-converting enzyme (TACE), TACE inhibitory properties of the three molecules was tested in vitro. Only PIP-CPO exerted TACE inhibitory activity at therapeutic (non-cytotoxic) concentrations, indicating on its potential to serve as an anti-inflammatory agent by reducing TNFα secretion.
