PRE-SCREEN TESTS:
- Systemic toxicity: The animals treated with the test item at concentrations of 50% and 25%% v/v in acetone/olive oil 4:1 were humanely killed, on Day 3 or Day 5, due to the occurrence of clinical signs of toxicity that were considered to approach the moderate severity limit set forth in the UK Home Office Project License. No signs of toxicity or excessive irritation were noted ion the animals treated at concentrations of 5% and 10% v/v in acetone/olive oil 4:1.

MAIN STUDY

ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Criteria used to consider a positive response:
The proliferation response of lymph node cells was expressed as the number of radioactive disintegrations per minute per animal and as the ratio of 3HTdR incorporation into lymph node cells of test nodes relative to that recorded for the control nodes (Stimulation Index).
The test item will be regarded as a sensitizer if at least one concentration of the test item results in a threefold or greater increase in 3HTdR incorporation compared to control values. Any test item failing to produce a threefold or greater increase in 3HTdR incorporation will be classified as a "non sensitizer".

TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION:
Test Item Administration:
daily application of 25 µL of the appropriate concentration of the test item to the dorsal surface of each ear for three consecutive days (Days 1, 2, 3). The test item formulation was administered using an automatic micropipette and spread over the dorsal surface of the ear using the tip of the pipette.
A further group of five mice received the vehicle alone in the same manner.
The positive control animals were similarly treated to the test animals except that 25 µL of the positive control item, α-Hexylcinnamaldehyde, tech., 85%, at a concentration of 25% v/v in acetone/olive oil 4:1, was applied to the dorsal surface of each ear.

3H-Methyl Thymidine Administration:
Five days following the first topical application of the test item, vehicle control item or positive control item (Day 6) all mice were injected via the tail vein with 0.25 mL (250 µL) of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) containing 3H methyl thymidine (3HTdR: 80 µCi/mL, specific activity 2.0 Ci/mmoL, ARC UK Ltd) giving a total of 20 µCi to each mouse.

Observations:
Clinical Observations: All animals were observed twice daily on Days 1, 2 and 3 and on a daily basis on Days 4, 5 and 6. Any signs of toxicity or signs of ill health during the test were recorded.
Body Weights: The body weight of each mouse was recorded on Day 1 (prior to dosing) and Day 6 (prior to termination).

Terminal Procedures:
Termination: Five hours following the administration of 3HTdR all mice were killed by carbon dioxide asphyxiation followed by cervical separation. For each individual animal of each group the draining auricular lymph nodes were excised and processed. For each individual animal 1 mL of PBS was added to the lymph nodes.
Preparation of Single Cell Suspension: A single cell suspension of the lymph node cells for each individual animal was prepared by gentle mechanical disaggregation through a 200 mesh stainless steel gauze. The lymph node cells were rinsed through the gauze with 4 mL of PBS into a petri dish labeled with the study number and dose concentration. The lymph node cells suspension was transferred to a centrifuge tube. The petri dish was washed with an additional 5 mL of PBS to remove all remaining lymph node cells and these were added to the centrifuge tube. The lymph node cells were pelleted at 1400 rpm (approximately 190 g) for 10 minutes. The pellet was re suspended in 10 mL of PBS and re pelleted. To precipitate out the radioactive material, the pellet was re suspended in 3 mL of 5% Trichloroacetic acid (TCA).
Determination of 3HTdR Incorporation: After approximately 18 hours incubation at approximately 4 C, the precipitates were recovered by centrifugation at 2100 rpm (approximately 450 g) for 10 minutes, re suspended in 1 mL of TCA and transferred to 10 mL of scintillation fluid. 3HTdR incorporation was measured by  scintillation counting. The "Poly Q™" vials containing the samples and scintillation fluid were placed in the sample changer of the scintillator and left to stand in darkness for approximately 20 minutes. The purpose of this period of time in darkness was to reduce the risk of luminescence, which has been shown to affect the reliability of the results. After approximately 20 minutes, the vials were shaken vigorously. The number of radioactive disintegrations per minute was then measured using the Beckman LS6500 scintillation system (Beckman Instruments Inc, Fullerton, CA, USA).

Positive control substance(s):
hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
Statistics:
Data was processed to give group mean values for disintegrations per minute and standard deviations where appropriate. Individual and group mean disintegrations per minute values were assessed for dose response relationships. Data was first assessed for suitability by analysis of normality and homogeneity of variance. If the assumptions that the data are both normally distributed and has homogeneity of variances, then parametric one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Dunnett’s multiple comparison procedure were used to determine statistical significance. If the assumptions were not met, non parametric Kruskal Wallis Rank Sum and Mann Whitney U test procedures were used.

Executive summary:

A Local Lymph Node Assay according to OECD Guideline 429 was performed to assess the skin sensitization potential of CGE-PMDA adduct in the CBA/Ca strain mouse following topical application to the dorsal surface of the ear.

Following preliminary screening tests in which no clinical signs of toxicity were noted at a concentration of 10% v/v, this concentration was selected as the highest dose investigated in the main test of the Local Lymph Node Assay. Three groups, each of five females, were treated with 50 µL (25 µL per ear) of the test item as a solution in acetone/olive oil 4:1 at concentrations of 10%, 5% or 2.5% v/v. A further group of five animals were treated with acetone/olive oil 4:1 alone. A concurrent positive control test, using a group of five animals, was also performed with the known sensitizer, α‑Hexylcinnamaldehyde tech., 85%, at a concentration of 25% v/v in acetone/olive oil 4:1.

The Stimulation Index expressed as the mean radioactive incorporation for each treatment group divided by the mean radioactive incorporation of the vehicle control group are as follows:

Descriptor: Log Kow
Descriptor: ACCEPT_DLC – Acceptor superdelocalizability
Descriptor selection: Descriptors were selected by using the probabilistic approach for identifying common stereoelectronic (reactivity) patterns of the chemicals – COREPA

Algorithm and descriptor generation: The COREPA (COmmon REactivity PAttern) method [sect. 9.2, ref.3] was used to derive the sub-models incorporated in the TIMES-SS models. It is a probabilistic technique for identifying common stereoelectronic (reactivity) patterns of structurally diverse chemicals which may exert similar or differential biological effects. All energetically reasonable conformers are used to establish conformer distributions across the global and local stereoelectronic descriptors associated with the activity of studied chemicals. The COREPA model is derived in the form of a decision tree. Its logic boxes consist of decision rules based on the reactivity patterns described by a combination of global descriptors of molecular steric and electronic structure and local reactivity parameters associated with specific alerting groups

Two additional 3D QSAR models implemented into the TIMES-SS model were derived for predicting skin sensitization potential of Aldehydes and Michael acceptors:

1. 3D QSAR model distinguishing skin sensitizing from not skin sensitizing aldehydes:
-The chemicals used to derive the model were aldehydes;
-The decision tree is consisted of one node separating Strong from Weak and non-sensitizing aldehydes based on calculated EHOMO in the ranges [-11.7, -8.22] [-11.7, -11] and MW in the ranges [13.6, 184] [250, 254].
2. 3D QSAR model distinguishing skin sensitizing from not skin sensitizing Michael acceptors:
-The chemicals used to derive the model were Michael acceptor having a double bond adjacent to electron-withdrawing group.
The decision tree is consisted of two nodes. The first one separates Strong from Weak and Non-sensitizing chemicals based on calculated ELECTRONEGATIVITY in the ranges [-5.13, -4.23] [-6.02, -5.42] and E_GAP in the ranges [8.07, 10.5] [10, 10.9]. The second one separates Weak from Non-sensitizing Michael acceptors based on calculated Log(Kow) in the ranges [0.68, 6.53] [-1.61, -0.583] and ACCEPT_DLC in the ranges [0.229, 0.275] [0.233, 0.242].

- Defined domain of applicability:

Description of the applicability domain of the model

The applicability domain of TIMES-SS model consists of the following layers:

1. General parametric requirements - includes ranges of variation of log KOW and MW. It specifies in the domain only those chemicals that fall in the range of variation of the MW and log Kow defined on the bases of the correctly predicted training set chemicals.

This layer of the domain is applied only on parent chemicals.

2. Structural domain - it is represented by list of atom - centered fragments extracted from the chemicals in the training set. The training chemicals were split into two subsets: chemicals correctly predicted by the model and incorrectly predicted chemicals. These two subsets of chemicals were used to extract characteristics determining the "good" and "bad" space of the domain. Extracted characteristics were split into three categories: unique characteristics of correct and incorrect chemicals (presented only in one of the subsets) and fuzzy characteristics presented in both subsets of chemicals.

Structural domain is applied on parent chemicals, only.

Mechanistic domain - in SS model it includes:

-Interpolation space: this stage of the applicability domain of the model holds only for chemicals for which an additional COREPA model is required. It estimates the position of the target chemicals in the population density plot built in the parametric space defined by the explanatory variables of the model by making use the training set chemicals. Currently, the accepted threshold of population density is 10%.

The mechanistic domain is applied on the parent structures and on their metabolites.

Method used to assess the applicability domain:

A stepwise approach for determining the applicability domain of the TIMES-SS model is proposed, distinguishing chemicals for which the model provides highly reliable predictions.

General parametric requirements are imposed in the first stage, specifying in the domain only those chemicals that fall in the range of variation of the physicochemical properties of the chemicals in the training set. The second stage defines the structural similarity between chemicals that are correctly predicted by the model. The structural neighborhood of atom-centered fragments is used to determine this similarity. The third stage in defining the domain is based on a mechanistic understanding of the modeled phenomenon. Here, the model domain combines the reliability of specific reactive groups hypothesized to cause the effect and the domain of explanatory variables determining the parametric requirements in order for functional groups to elicit their reactivity.

Software name and version for applicability domain assessment: Name: Domain Manager v.1.09 developed at Laboratory of Mathematical Chemistry University, "Prof. Assen Zlatarov," 1 Yakimov Str., Bourgas 8010, BULGARIA

Limits of applicability:In order to belong to the model applicability domain a target structure must meet the requirements of all the domain layers.


- Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit and robustness and predictivity:
- Mechanistic interpretation:

5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
- Descriptor domain:
The Times-Oasis model specifies as “within the domain” only those parent chemicals that fall within the range of variation of MW and Log Kow defined in the correctly predicted training set chemicals.

- Structural and mechanistic domains:
The structural domain is represented by a list of “atom-centered” fragments derived from the training set chemicals. The atom-centred fragments are partitioned into subsets with respect to their association with correct, incorrect, or equivocal prediction of skin sensitization. The structural domain features are only applied to parent molecules.
A mechanistic domain is applied on to parent molecules and their metabolites. Where applicable (Aldehydes and Michael acceptors) a COREPA model is used to predict skin sensitization potential.
