- The Direct peptide reactivity Assay (DPRA) is an in chemico test to determine the reactivity of a test substance towards peptides.
This assay has been validated for a broad range of low-molecular weight chemicals and it was found to detect reactive skin sensitizers from a broad range of so called applicability domains, i.e. chemicals reacting with proteins by different mechanisms. It was validated by ECVAM and proposed to be used as part of an integrated approachfor testing and assessment (IATA). It was recently also implemented in OECD test guideline 497 on Defined Approaches for skin sensitisation testing. - Details of test system:

One study with three replicates was conducted. After 24 h incubation time, peptide depletion induced by the test substancewas determined by HPLC-UV.
The test substance gave 24.2 % depletion of the Cys-peptide and 1.3 % depletion of the Lyspeptide. The substance is thus attributed to the “LOW” reactivity class according to the DPRA prediction model., rating it as a non-sensitizer according to the DPRA prediction model.

DATA EVALUATION
- Cytotoxicity assessment: PrestoBlue® assay
- Prediction model used: substances are rated positive if the following conditions are met:
• The Imax indicates > 1.5-fold gene induction, and this induction is statistically significant above the solvent control in a particular repetition as determined by students T-test. The EC1.5 value is below 1000 μM in all three repetitions or in at least 2 repetitions. (If the Imax is exactly equal to 1.5, the su bstance is still rated negative and no EC1.5 value is calculated by the evaluation sheet.)
• At the lowest concentration with a gene induction above 1.5-fold (i.e. at the EC 1.5 determining value), the cellular viability is above 70%
• There is an apparent overall dose-response for luciferase induction, which is similar between the repetitions. - Vehicle / solvent control:
- DMSO
- Negative control:
- not applicable
- Positive control:
- cinnamic aldehyde [442D]
- Positive control results:
- Cinnamic aldehyde was run in both repetitions. Cinnamic aldehyde needs to be positive for a run to be accepted (i.e. induction > 1.5 fold). This requirement was fulfilled in both repetitions. The induction at 64 μM and the EC 1.5 for cinnamic aldehyde were also calculated. The targets are: (i) Average induction in the three replicates for cinnamic aldehyde at 64 μM should be between 2 and 8, and (ii) the EC 1.5 value should be between 7 μM and 30 μM. At least one of these two numerical criteria must be met in order to accept a repetition. In both experiments performed here both criteria were fulfilled. Thus both repetitions were valid for the positive control.

- Overall outcome: In both repetitions, no induction of the luciferase above the threshold of 1.5 was noted. According to the prediction model of the KeratinoSens™ assay, the test substance is rated as non-sensitizer. - Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In both repetitions, no induction of the luciferase above the threshold of 1.5 was noted. According to
the prediction model of the KeratinoSens™ assay, the test substance is rated as non-sensitizer. - Executive summary:
The study was performed according to the Keratinosens assay, as described in OECD TG 442D and DB- ALM Protocol No. 155.
The test substance was dissolved in DMSO and tested according to the standard operating procedure of the KeratinoSensTM assay at 12 concentrations in three repetitions, each time in three replicates. After a 48 h incubation time, luciferase induction and cellular viability at each of the concentrations were determined.
The test substance was moderatly toxic to the KeratinoSens™ cells. In both independent repetitions, it did not induce the luciferase gene above a threshold of 1.5-fold. It is therefore considered a nonsensitizer according to the prediction model of the KeratinoSens™ assay.
Referenceopen allclose all
When using HPLC-UV analysis only, the test substance led to 24.2% depletion of the Cys-peptide and 1.3% of the Lys-peptide and an average peptide depletion of 12.7%. It was therefore classified into the LOW reactivity class according to the classical DPRA prediction model.
When samples were analysed with high resolution LC-MS, the same amount of peptide depletion was observed. However, no direct adduct was formed in samples with the test chemical. At the same time the test chemical triggered significantly enhanced peptide dimerization, and the observed peptide depletion can be attributed to peptide oxidation / dimer formation rather than adduct formation / direct reactivity. No indication for a peptide adduct was found in this analysis. For the positive control, direct adduct formation could be verified indicating direct reactivity for the positive control. Thus, based on this more sophisticated and detailed analysis, the test chemical is not directly peptide reactive, but can only trigger peptide dimerization which is not considered itself as a molecular initiating event in skin sensitization.
Since this LC-MS based prediction model is not part of the validated DPRA protocol, this additional analysis should be used in a weight-of-evidence based analysis of the sensitization potential of a test chemical.

In chemico/in vitro studies
DPRA: negative (OECD 442C, rel.1):
The Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA) study was performed according to OECD TG 442C to assess the first key event in the skin sensitization adverse outcome pathway.
The test substance was dissolved in acetonitrile and mixed with a Cysteine- and a Lysine-containing peptide according to the standard operating procedure of the DPRA. One study with three replicates was conducted. After 24 h incubation time, peptide depletion induced by the test substancewas determined by HPLC-UV.
The test substance gave 24.2 % depletion of the Cys-peptide and 1.3 % depletion of the Lyspeptide. The substance is thus attributed to the “LOW” reactivity class according to the DPRA prediction model., rating it as a non-sensitizer according to the DPRA prediction model.
Keratinosens: negative (OECD 442D, rel.1)
The study was performed according to the Keratinosens assay, as described in OECD TG 442D and DB- ALM Protocol No. 155.
The test substance was dissolved in DMSO and tested according to the standard operating procedure of the KeratinoSensTM assay at 12 concentrations in three repetitions, each time in three replicates.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the 2 out of 3 Defined Approach (2o3 DA) as defined in the OECD guideline 497, the test substance is determined to not skin sensitizing due to the negative DPRA study and negative Keratinosens study.
It is therefore not classified as skin sensitizer according to GHS UN and CLP regulations.
