[0548] Experimental Purpose:
[0549] The IC.sub.50 values were determined to evaluate the antagonistic activity of the test compounds against CXCR2.
[0550] Experimental Method:
[0551] PathHunter CXCR2 -arrestin cells (DiscoverX) were grown under normal conditions and seeded on a white-walled 384-microwell plate at 20 L/well. Before testing, the cells were incubated at 37 C. for an appropriate time. The test compounds were serially diluted in DMSO at a three-fold dilution factor to obtain 8 serially diluted test compounds. Shortly before the test, the above serially diluted test compounds were further diluted with test buffer to 5 times the test concentration. 5 L of the further diluted test compounds was added to the cells and then the cells were incubated at 37 C. for 30 minutes. The vehicle concentration was 1%. 5 L of 6EC80 agonist (CXCL8) buffer was added to the cells and then the cells were incubated at 37 C. for 90 minutes. 15 L (50% v/v) of PathHunter detection reagent mixture was added in one portion, followed by one-hour incubation to generate the test signal. The microplates were read on a PerkinElmer Envision instrument for chemiluminescence signal. The biological activity of the test compounds was analyzed by CBIS data analysis suite (ChemInnovation, CA) and shown as IC.sub.50 values. The experimental results are shown in Table 12:

Test Example 2: Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of the Compounds
[0553] Experimental Purpose:
[0554] The pharmacokinetic parameters of the compounds in C57BL/6 mice were investigated.
[0555] Experimental Materials:
[0556] C57BL/6 mice (male, 18-30 g, 7-9 weeks old, Shanghai Lingchang Biotechnology Co., Ltd.)
[0557] Experimental Procedure:
[0558] Formulations containing an aqueous solution of 1% DMSO/10% hydroxypropyl--cyclodextrin as the vehicle were administered by intravenous injection (1 mpk), formulations containing an aqueous solution of 1% DMSO/1% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose/0.2% Tween 80 as the vehicle were administered by gavage (5 mpk). Before the animal experiment, all animals were fasted, and fed 4 hours after administration; all animals were free to drink water. The time points of blood collection: intravenous injection administration group: 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours; gavage administration group: 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours.
[0559] Whole blood samples (0.03 mL) were collected through the saphenous vein (or other suitable blood collection sites) at the prescribed time points, and all blood samples were added to labeled plastic centrifuge tubes containing K2-EDTA anticoagulant. After the blood samples were collected, the plasma was isolated by centrifugation, immediately placed in dry ice and stored at low temperature. All samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS with a minimum detection limit of 2 nM. The non-compartmental model of WinNonlin Version 6.3 (Pharsight, Mountain View, Calif.) pharmacokinetic software was used to process the mean plasma concentration, and the linear-log trapezoid method was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters.
[0560] The experimental results are shown in Table 13:
TABLE-US-00014 TABLE 13 Pharmacokinetic test results Sample to be Area under tested (compound the drug prepared in each concentration Bioavailability embodiment) Clearance Half-life time curve (F) (nM .Math. hr) (mL/min/kg) T.sub.1/2 (h) (AUC) (%) Danirixin 42.5 7.43 1580 34.3 WX003A 11.2 2.22 12689 70.3 WX006A 8.3 3.09 20091 83.8 WX012A 15.8 0.94 9392 82.5 WX013A 30.8 2.21 4438 75.5

[0564] Experimental Materials:
[0565] Lewis rats (male, 202-239 g, 7-9 weeks old, Beijing Viton Lihua)
[0566] Experimental Procedure:
[0567] Formulations containing an aqueous solution of 1% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose/0.2% Tween 80 as the vehicle were administered by gavage (5 mpk). Before the animal experiment, all animals were fasted overnight, and fed 4 hours after administration; all animals were free to drink water. The time points of blood collection: danirixin administration group: 0.25, 1, 8 hours; gavage administration group: 0.5, 1, 4 hours.

After the blood samples were collected, the plasma was separated by centrifugation, immediately placed in dry ice and stored at low temperature. All samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS with a minimum detection limit of 2 nM. The non-compartmental model of WinNonlin Version 6.3 (Pharsight, Mountain View, Calif.) pharmacokinetic software was used to process the mean plasma concentration, and the log-linear trapezoid method was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters.
[0569] The experimental results are shown in Table 14:

[0583] 2. Administration method: an aqueous solution of 1% DMSO/1% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose/0.2% Tween 80 was used as the vehicle; the animals were daily administered with a volume of 200 L/animal by gavage for 4 weeks.
[0584] 3. End point of the experiment: On the 29.sup.th day, the mice were euthanized, samples were collected, and flow cytometry was performed.
[0585] Flow Cytometry
[0586] The blood, alveolar lavage fluid and lung tissue of the mice were collected after 4 weeks of administration to determine the percentage of inflammatory cells.
[0587] 1) Alveolar lavage cells: the mice were euthanized. The neck was dissected, and the trachea was exposed and intubated, followed by lavage with 1 mL of sulphate buffer precooled at 4 C. for three times. The lavage fluids were combined, and centrifuged at 1200 rpm for 5 minutes. The supernatant was discarded and the cell suspension was collected.
