Lifitegrast binds to lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) on T cells and inhibits interaction with intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1; IC50 = 2.98 nM in Jurkat T cells), which decreases T cell-mediated inflammation.{39088} It inhibits secretion of cytokines associated with dry eye disease, including INF-γ, TNF-α, MIP-1α, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-6.{39086} In a T cell adhesion assay, lifitegrast blocks adhesion of HuT 78 cells to ICAM-1 with an IC50 value of 9 nM. It also increases tear production in dogs with idiopathic keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye syndrome).{39085} Topical application of lifitegrast in mouse models of corneal and bacterial inflammation inhibits LFA-1-dependent neutrophil recruitment to the eye.{39087} Formulations containing lifitegrast are used for the treatment of dry eye disease.
