Notes: AZD 2098 is a CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) antagonist.{50101} AZD 2098 inhibits CCL22-induced calcium flux in CHO cells expressing human recombinant CCR4 (IC50 = 31.6 nM) and CCL22- and CCL17-mediated Th2 cell chemotaxis (IC50 = 501.2 nM for both). AZD 2098 is selective for CCR4 over CXCR1, CXCR2, CCR1, CCR2b, CCR5, CCR7, and CCR8 up to 10 µM in vitro. Administration of AZD 2098 (0.07-2.5 mg/kg, p.o.) to ovalbumin-sensitized, antigen-challenged rats reduces alveolitis and leukocyte infiltration in the lung in a dose-dependent manner.
