Description of key information
In an in chemico direct peptide reactivity assay (DPRA) according to OECD Guideline 442C, no peptide depletion of cysteine or lysine was observed. The test item is therefore considered as non-sensitiser (2017).
In an in vitro ARE-Nrf2 Luciferase assay (KeratinoSens™) according to OECD Guideline 442D, the test substance did not induce luciferase activity and no EC1.5 could be determined and is therefore considered as non-sensitiser (2017).
In an in vitro skin sensitisation assay (h-CLAT) according to OECD Guideline 442E, the test induced the expression of surface marker (CD54, CD86). Thus the test substance is considered as sensitiser (2017).
In conclusion, the test item is considered to be non-sensitising according to the IATA, since the results on the first two key events of skin sensitisation (direct peptide reactivity and keratinocyte activation) were negative.

- Executive summary:
In the present study, the skin sensitising properties of 2-isobutyl-4-vinyl-1,3-dioxolane were determined in an in vitro ARE-Nrf2 Luciferase assay (KeratinoSens™) according to OECD Guideline 442D.
Based on a molecular weight of 156.22 g/mol a stock solution of 200 mM was prepared in water. Based on the stock solution a set of eleven master solutions in 100 % solvent was prepared by serial dilution using a constant dilution factor of 1:2. These master solutions were diluted 1:100 in cell culture medium. The following concentration range was tested in the assay: 2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, 15.63, 7.81, 3.91, 1.95, 0.98 µM.
Cells were incubated with the test item for 48 h at 37 °C. After exposure cells were lysed and luciferase activity was assessed by luminescence measurement. In the first experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 1.24 was determined at a test item concentration of 2000 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 86.3 %. No significant luciferase induction >1.5 was found in the tested concentration range. Therefore, no EC1.5 value could be calculated. Furthermore, no cytotoxic effect was observed. In the second experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 1.1 was determined at a test item concentration of 1.95 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 119.5 %. No significant luciferase induction >1.5 was found in the tested concentration range. Therefore, no EC1.5 value could be calculated. Within the second experiment a cytotoxic effect was observed starting from 125 µM onward. No dose response for luciferase activity induction was observed for each individual run as well as for an overall luciferase activity induction. Under the condition of this study the test substance is therefore considered as non sensitiser.

Reasons for the Choice of THP-1 Cells:
THP-1 cells (Human monocytic leukemia cell line) were purchased from ATCC, #TIB-202. THP-1 cells are used as surrogate for human myeloid dendritic cells and show enhanced CD86 and/or CD54 expression when treated with sensitisers.
For the test item exposure the highest dose solution calculated from the XTT assay was prepared corresponding to 1.2 × CV75. Due to a technical error, 1884 μg/mL instead of the calculated 1601 μg/mL was the highest tested test item concentration in the first h-CLAT run. n addition, due to strong cytotoxicity (cell viability < 50%) observed in the four highest tested test item concentrations of the first h-CLAT run, the concentrations for the second run were adjusted. Further 7 dilutions were prepared by serial 1:1.2 dilution. The dilutions were prepared freshly before each experiment. Each volume (500 μL) of the dilutions of the test item, medium control, positive and DMSO control was added to the cells. The treated THP-1 cells were incubated for 24 ± 0.5 hours. Each concentration of the test item, medium control, positive and DMSO control was prepared in triplicates for the different stainings (with FITC-labelled anti-CD86, CD54 antibody or mouse IgG1).
The triplicates of each test item-treated and not test item-treated cells were pooled and equally distributed into three sample tubes, collected by centrifugation (approx. 250 × g, 5 min) and then washed twice with approx. 2 mL of FACS buffer (PBS with 0.1% (w/v) BSA). Thereafter, the cells were centrifuged, re-suspended and blocked with 600 μL of blocking solution at 2 - 8 °C (on ice) for approx. 15 min. After blocking, the cells were centrifuged and the cell pellets were re-suspended in 100 μL FACS buffer. The cells were stained with FITClabelled anti-CD86, CD54 antibody or mouse IgG1 (isotype control). All solutions were kept light protected at 2 - 8 °C or on ice during the staining and analysis procedures. The cells with the different antibodies or the IgG1 were gently mixed and incubated light protected for 30 ± 5 min. at 2 - 8 °C (on ice).
After staining with the antibodies, the cells were washed twice (2 - 8 °C) with 2 mL FACS buffer and re-suspended in a final volume of 2 mL/tube FACS buffer. At least 10 minutes before the flow cytometry acquisition, 5 μL of a 7-AAD solution were added. Before using the flow cytometer, the device was calibrated with appropriate beads in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. The expression of cell surface antigens (CD54, CD86) was analysed by flow cytometry. The FITC acquisition channel (FL-1) was set for the optimal detection of the FITC fluorescence signal, and the 7-AAD acquisition channel (FL-3) was set for the optimal detection of DNAbound 7-AAD fluorescence signal.
Dead cells were determined by staining with 7-AAD. Gating by FSC (forward scatter) and SSC (side scatter) was not done. A total of 10,000 living cells were analysed. Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of viable cells and viability for each sample were used for analysis. The other tubes were acquired without changing the settings of the cytometer. The MFI was recorded for each condition. The relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) was not calculated, if the cell viability was less than 50 % (due to diffuse labelling of cytoplasmic structures that could be generated due to cell membrane destruction).
Controls for XTT and h-CLAT:
Concurrent controls were used for several Envigo CRS GmbH studies performed simultaneously.

- Conclusions:

- Executive summary:
In an in vitro skin sensitisation assay (h-CLAT) according to OECD Guideline 442E, the dendritic cell activation potential (third key event of a skin sensitisation AOP) was assessed. The test substance was suspended in culture medium when administered to THP-1 cells for 24 ± 0.5 hours at concentretions of 526, 631, 757, 908, 1090, 1308, 1570 and 1884 μg/mL. Cytotoxic effects were observed following incubation with the test item starting with the concentration of 2500 μg/mL up to the highest tested concentration (5000 μg/mL). The mean CV75 value of both XTT tests was calculated as 1334.1 μg/mL. However, due to a technical error, 1884 μg/mL instead of 1601 μg/mL was the highest tested test item concentration in the first h-CLAT run. Due to strong cytotoxicity (cell viability < 50 %) observed in the first h-CLAT run, the concentrations for the second run were adjusted and the following concentrations of the test item (dissolved in culture medium) were tested: 310, 372, 446, 535, 642, 771, 925 and 1110 μg/mL. Positive (DNCB), negative (medium) and solvent (DMSO) controls were valid. The RFI of CD86 and CD54 was greater than 150 % and 200 %, respectively, in at least one concentration of both independent runs. Therefore the h-CLAT prediction is considered positive for the tested test item in this h-CLAT study.

Preparation of Peptide Stock Solutions
Stock solutions of each peptide at concentrations of 0.667 mM were prepared by dissolution of pre-weighed aliquots of the appropriate peptide in ca 20 mL aliquots of the appropriate buffer solution (Cysteine in 100 mM phosphate buffer pH 7.5, Lysine in 100 mM Ammonium acetate buffer pH 10.2).
Preparation of Peptide Calibration Standards
Calibration standards of both peptides were prepared by diluting the requisite stock solution in the appropriate buffer and acetonitrile and contained each peptide at concentrations of 0.0167 mM, 0.0334 mM, 0.0667 mM, 0.133 mM, 0.267 mM and 0.534 mM. A buffer blank was prepared as well.
Preparation of Stability Controls and Precision Controls
Stability controls (Reference Control B) and precision controls of both peptides were prepared at a concentration of 0.5 mM in acetonitrile.
Preparation of Positive Control Stock Solution
The positive control chemical (Cinnamic Aldehyde) was prepared at a concentration of 100 mM in acetonitrile.
Preparation of Positive Control and Cysteine Peptide Depletion Samples and Co-elution Controls
Acetonitrile solutions of PI 26448 and the positive control were diluted with the Cysteine peptide to prepare solutions containing 0.5 mM Cysteine and 5 mM of either PI 26448 or the positive control. For the co-elution control, buffer solution was used in place of the Cysteine stock solution.
Preparation of Positive Control and Lysine Peptide Depletion Samples and Co elution Controls
Acetonitrile solutions of PI 26448 were diluted with the Lysine peptide to prepare solutions containing 0.5 mM Lysine and 25 mM of either PI 26448 or the positive control. For the co-elution control, buffer solution was used in place of the Lysine stock solution.
Incubation
The appearance of the PI 26448 and positive control samples in the HPLC vials was documented after preparation and then the vials placed into the autosampler of the HPLC set at 25°C for a minimum of 22 hours incubation prior to initiation of the analysis run. Prior to initiation of the run the appearance of the samples in the vials was assessed and documented again.
Analysis
The concentration of both the Cysteine and Lysine peptides in the presence of PI 26448 and the associated positive controls was quantified by HPLC using UV. - Key result

- Executive summary:
In an in chemico Skin Sensitisation: Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA) according to OECD Guideline 442C, the reactivity and sensitizing potential of 2-isobutyl-4-vinyl-1,3-dioxolane were determined. Solutions of the test item were successfully analysed by the validated DPRA analytical method in both cysteine and lysine containing synthetic peptides. Test item and controls were incubateted for at least 22 h at 25 °C prior to analysis. The concentration of cysteine and lysine was quantified by HPLC with UV detection. All acceptance criteria were met. Results of the positive control cinnamic aldehyde (100 mM) were valid. No cysteine or lysine depletion was observed. The overall result places the test item in the reactivity class of “no or minimal reactivity” and therefore it is predicted to be a non-skin sensitizer according to the depletion model.

Endpoint conclusion
- Additional information:
The aim of the IATA is to replace in vivo tests with in vitro tests. However one in vitro method alone may be no sufficient to conclude on the absence of skin sensitisation potential of chemicals. Therefore, the integrated approach of the IATA concentrates on three key events of the skin senitising AOP (direct protein binding, keratinocyte activation and dendritic cell activation) for the assessment of skin senitising properties of chemicals.
The first key event in skin sensitisation initiation is the direct protein binding. In an In chemico Skin Sensitisation: Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA) according to OECD Guideline 442C, the reactivity and sensitizing potential of2-isobutyl-4-vinyl-1,3-dioxolane were determined.Solutions of the test item were successfully analysed by the validated DPRA analytical method in both cysteine and lysine containing synthetic peptides. Test item and controls were incubateted for at least 22 h at 25 °C prior to analysis. The concentration of cysteine and lysine was quantified by HPLC with UV detection. All acceptance criteria were met. Results of the positive control cinnamic aldehyde (100 mM) were valid. No cysteine or lysine depletion was observed. The overall result places the test item in the reactivity class of “no or minimal reactivity” and therefore it is predicted to be a non-skin sensitizer according to the depletion model.
The skin sensitising properties of 2-isobutyl-4-vinyl-1,3-dioxolane were determined in an in vitro ARE-Nrf2 Luciferase assay (KeratinoSens™) according to OECD Guideline 442D. Based on a molecular weight of 156.22 g/mol a stock solution of 200 mM was prepared in water. Based on the stock solution a set of eleven master solutions in 100 % solvent was prepared by serial dilution using a constant dilution factor of 1:2. These master solutions were diluted 1:100 in cell culture medium. The following concentration range was tested in the assay: 2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, 15.63, 7.81, 3.91, 1.95, 0.98 µM. Cells were incubated with the test item for 48 h at 37 °C. After exposure cells were lysed and luciferase activity was assessed by luminescence measurement. In the first experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 1.24 was determined at a test item concentration of 2000 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 86.3 %. No significant luciferase induction >1.5 was found in the tested concentration range. Therefore, no EC1.5 value could be calculated. Furthermore, no cytotoxic effect was observed. In the second experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 1.1 was determined at a test item concentration of 1.95 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 119.5 %. No significant luciferase induction >1.5 was found in the tested concentration range. Therefore, no EC1.5 value could be calculated. Within the second experiment a cytotoxic effect was observed starting from 125 µM onward. No dose response for luciferase activity induction was observed for each individual run as well as for an overall luciferase activity induction. Under the condition of this study the test substance is therefore considered as non-sensitiser.
In an in vitro skin sensitisation assay (h-CLAT) according to OECD Guideline 442E (2017), the dendritic cell activation potential (third key event of a skin sensitisation AOP) of 2-isobutyl-4-vinyl-1,3-dioxolane was assessed. The test substance was suspended in culture medium when administered to THP-1 cells for 24 ± 0.5 hours at concentretions of 526, 631, 757, 908, 1090, 1308, 1570 and 1884 μg/mL. Cytotoxic effects were observed following incubation with the test item starting with the concentration of 1090 μg/mL up to the highest tested concentration. However, due to a technical error, 1884 μg/mL instead of 1601 μg/mL was the highest tested test item concentration in the first h-CLAT run. Due to strong cytotoxicity (cell viability < 50 %) observed in the first h-CLAT run, the concentrations for the second run were adjusted and the following concentrations of the test item (dissolved in culture medium) were tested: 310, 372, 446, 535, 642, 771, 925 and 1110 μg/mL. Positive (DNCB), negative (medium) and solvent (DMSO) controls were valid. The RFI of CD86 and CD54 was greater than 150 % and 200 %, respectively, in at least one concentration of both independent runs. Therefore the h-CLAT prediction is considered positive for the tested test item in this h-CLAT study.
According to the results of the testing battery, the test item is not peptide reactive, does not activate keratinocytes, but activates dendritic cells. In accordance with the published evaluation scheme (Bauchet al., 2012; Regul Toxicol Pharmacol. 63: 489-504) and Sections 1.2 and 1.4 of Annex XI of EC regulation No 1907/2006, the test item is judged not to be a skin sensitizer.
