Abstract
The effects of a water-soluble tacrolimus-PEG conjugate (KI-102) on insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and systemic lupus erythematosus were investigated. KI-102 was stable at pH 4.0?4.5 and 4¡ÆC. The area under the concentration-time curve, the time of maximum concentration, and the maximum concentration were 43.4 ng¡¤h/mL, 0.85 h, and 8.1 ng/mL, respectively, similar to those of FK506. Mice that administered KI-102 at 4.32 mg/kg had the plasma glucose concentrations that decreased to 7.5 mmol/L after 170 days, similar to that of mice administered FK506 at 0.6 mg/kg. There were no incidences of diabetes when KI-102 was administered at 86.4 mg/kg after 24 weeks. The group that administered 43.2 mg/kg had decreases in the concentrations of ¥â-hydroxybutyrate (60%), triglyceride (24%), and cholesterol (30%). KI-102 administered at 180 mg/kg reduced serum anti-dsDNA antibody activity by 64% compared with a control. Urinary albumin concentration in the same group decreased 81% compared with the control. These results indicate that KI-102 may be practically applicable as prodrug of FK506.
