Abstract PURPOSE:To determine the efficacy of the superoxide dismutase mimetic, manganese(III) tetrakis(1-methyl-4-pyridyl) porphyrin (Mn-TM-2-PyP), in vitro in human corneal epithelial (HCE-T) cells and in vivo in a preclinical mouse model for dry-eye disease (DED).
METHODS:In vitro, HCE-T cultures were exposed either to tert-butylhydroperoxide (tBHP) to generate oxidative stress or to hyperosmolar conditions modeling cellular stress during DED. Cells were pre-treated with Mn-TM-2-PyP or vehicle. Mn-TM-2-PyP permeability across stratified HCE-T cells was assayed. In vivo, Mn-TM-2-PyP (0.1% w/v in saline) was delivered topically as eye drops in a desiccating stress/scopolamine model for DED. Preclinical efficacy was compared to untreated, vehicle- and ophthalmic cyclosporine emulsion-treated mice.
RESULTS:Mn-TM-2-PyP protected HCE-T cells in a dose-dependent manner against tBHP-induced oxidative stress as determined by calculating the IC50 for tBHP in the resazurin, MTT and lactate dehydrogenase release cell viability assays. Mn-TM-2-PyP did not protect HCE-T cells from hyperosmolar insult. Its permeability coefficient across a barrier of HCE-T cells was 1.1 ± 0.05 × 10-6 cm/s and the mass balance was 62 ± 0.6%. In vivo, topical dosing with Mn-TM-2-PyP resulted in a statistically significant reduction of corneal fluorescein staining, similar to ophthalmic cyclosporine emulsion. Furthermore, Mn-TM-2-PyP significantly reduced leukocyte infiltration into lacrimal glands and prevented degeneration of parenchymal tissue. No protective effect against loss of conjunctival goblet cells was observed. Notably, Mn-TM-2-PyP did not produce ocular toxicity when administered topically.
DISCUSSION:Our data suggest that Mn-TM-2-PyP, a prototypic synthetic metalloporphyrin compound with potent catalytic antioxidant activity, can improve signs of DED in vivo by reducing oxidative stress in corneal epithelial cells.
