3 Mechanism of induction phase of allergic contact dermatitis Induction phase Haptens ( ) Dendritic cell(dc) e.g., Langerhans cell) Activation AOP(Adverse Outcome Pathway) Key Events Chemical Structure & Properties Molecular initiating Event Metabolism,Penetration Electrophilic substance(in silico) Covalent interaction with cells protein (protein-binding DPRA) Keratinocyte Migration Cellular Response Dendritic cell activation h-clat Keratinocyte signal activation KeratinoSens Lymph node DC Antigen presentation T cell T cell Proliferation LLNA (in vivo) (OECD TG 429) LLNA:(Local lymph node assay) is the one of in vivo test which detect the lymph node proliferation by the treatment with chemicals.

4 DPRA for hapten-protein binding DPRA (Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay) detects binding among chemicals and model peptides (Cys-peptide/Lys-peptide) using HPLC. 24 h Flow cytometry analysis Ac-RFAACAA-COOH Ac-RFAAKAA-COOH Treatment of chemical Ac-RFAACAA-COOH (K) Each of the % peptide depletion of Cys and Lys was used as a descriptor. h-clat for dendritic cell activation h-clat (human Cell Line Activation Test) detects augmentation of CD86 and CD54 expression on chemical-treated THP-1 cells using flow cytometry. 24 h Flow cytometry analysis Treatment of chemical FITC-anti-CD86 Ab, -anti CD54 Ab Ab; antibody Minimum of threshold concentration of CD86/CD54 expression and CV75 was used as a descriptor.

5 KeratinoSens for ketatinocyte signaling KeratinoSens detects induction of ARE(anti-oxidant response element) dependent luciferase activity in HaCaT. EC1.5 (threshold concentration of ARE-dependent luciferase induction) was used as a descriptor. In silico structure alert for chemical structure & properties Toxtree

6 How to assess skin sensitization risk Hazard Identification: skin sensitizer or non sensitizer Understanding skin sensitization potency 1. skin sensitization category (weak, moderate, strong) 2. Threshold (EC3) Exposure assessment Risk assessment In the risk assessment for skin sensitization, hazard identification, potency and exposure assessment is important factor. In vivo sensitization assay (e.g. LLNA: Local lymph node assay (OECD TG 429) ) can provide the information of hazard(positive/negative) and potency including threshold concentration of chemicals. However, in vivo sensitization test for safety assessment for cosmetics are no longer available in EU.

7 Aim of the study Development of the prediction model for LLNA threshold (called EC3 values) using non-animal assays (in vitro or/and in silico). LLNA: Local lymph node assay (OECD TG 429)

8 Correlation between LLNA, h-clat, DPRA and KeratinoSens LLNA vs DPRA(Cys) LLNA vs h-clat(mit) LLNA vs KetatinoSens (EC1.5) R=0.64(p<0.05) R=0.57(p<0.05) R=0.52(p<0.05) LLNA vs DPRA(Lys) R=0.28(p<0.05) LLNA vs cell toxicity R=0.66(p<0.05) Each descriptor derived from h-clat, DPRA (Cys), DPRA (Lys) and KeratinoSens correlated with LLNA EC3, significantly. However, each indicator is not enough for risk assessment.

9 Artificial Neural Network (ANN) analysis DPRA-Cys Input Layer Hidden Layer Output Layer DPRA-Lys KeratinoSens TM h-clat CD86/CD54 (MIT) Cell tox(cv75) In silico structure alert Toxtree LLNA EC3 LLNA EC3 EC3 values for LLNA positive chemicals For LLNA negative chemicals, 101% was used as EC3 value (converted to µm/cm 2 unit). In vivo test data In vitro/in silico data In this study, the ANN analysis was performed. MIT; Minimum induction threshold of CD86/CD54 in h-clat

10 Log(Predicted LLNA EC3 (um/cm 2 ) ) Prediction of LLNA EC3s using ANN model(in vitro) After 10-fold cross-validation R= 0.90(N=134) RMS error=0.50 Log(Published LLNA EC3 (um/cm 2 )) Log(Predicted LLNA EC3 (um/cm 2 ) ) Model evaluation using test set Log(Published LLNA EC3 (um/cm 2 )) This ANN model showed good correlation between predicted values and tested values. *Root mean square (RMS) error = 2 ((measured value - predicted value) ) / number of data

12 Prediction of LLNA EC3s using ANN model(in silico(qsar)) In silico data Log (Predicted LLNA EC3) N=206 R=0.726 RMS error= Log (Published LLNA EC3) In vivo data The ANN model consisted of in silico-calculated descriptors of the three-dimensional structures showed good correlation with published LLNA threshold(called EC3).

13 Agenda 1. About ANN models for predicting LLNA threshold(in vitro/in silico) 2. Application of ANN model in the actual safety assessment.

14 Basic strategy of safety assurance on skin sensitization Hazard identification In vitro ANN h-clat/dpra/keratinosens Risk assessment Final confirmation In silico Weight of evidence Human tests RIPT, Use test (as confirmation) Readacross Original QSAR model(tsujita-inoue et al., J. Toxicol. Sci., 40 (2015) ) In our company, we usually assess cosmetic ingredient using in vitro, in silico(qsar), read across and human confirmatory test based on weight of evidence concept.

15 Evaluation flow using ANN models and read across In vitro assays (DPRA, KeratinoSens TM, h-clat) All negative One or more positive *Tsujita-Inoue et al., J. Toxicol. Sci., 40 (2015) In vitro ANN In silico ANN* No potential Lower EC3 is selected for QRA Strong/extreme(Reliability; not low) Margin of safety 10 Read across QRA Non/weak/moderate QRA: quantitative risk assessment QRA Human tests To avoid under-prediction of hazardous compounds, chemicals which were predicted strong or extreme sensitizer in this process were imposed 10 times safety margin to the predicted EC3 value.

18 Assessment of 1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic anhydrate Chemicals Published LLNA EC3(%) Predicted EC3 (In vitro/in silico) Read Across evaluation 1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic anhydrate 0.9% 17% Strong/Extreme Chemicals 1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic anhydrate Additional safety margin by read across needed Predicted EC3(%) (by ANN model(toxtree))(adjusted) 1.7%

19 Conclusions & Discussion The ANN models using h-clat, DPRA, KeratinoSens and in silico structure alert detecting models(toxtree) and in silico QSAR model had a capacity to predict LLNA EC3. Each event in the AOP of skin sensitization (protein-binding, dendritic cell activation and keratinocyte signaling) might affect skin sensitization potency level. Our Read-across approach might be useful for extracting similar chemicals. The combination of in vitro/in silico ANN model(s) and read across study (a kind of WoE approach) is useful for avoiding under-predicted results. This integrated model could be useful to evaluate cosmetic ingredients for risk assessment of skin sensitization.

20 Finally, Thank you for your attention.
