Beclomethasone 17-propionate (Beclomethasone-17-monopropionate), an active metabolite of Beclomethasone dipropionate (HY-13571), is a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) agonist. Beclomethasone 17-propionate exhibits greater affinity for GR than Beclomethasone dipropionate. Beclomethasone 17-propionate effectively suppresses cytokine production in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) lung macrophages[1][2][3].
Metabolism of Beclomethasone dipropionate to 17-BMP is an important activation step. Beclomethasone 17-propionate inhibits LPS-stimulated CXCL8, TNFα and IL-6. The EC50 values of Beclomethasone 17-propionate for IL-6, TNFα and CXCL8 were 0.05 nM, 0.01 nM and 0.1 nM, respectively. Beclomethasone 17-propionate evokes upregulation of the GR dependent genes FKBP51 and GILZ[3].
