Description

GRA Ex-25 is an inhibitor of glucagon receptor, with IC50 of 56 and 55 nM for rat and human glucagon receptors, respectively.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 56 nM (rat glucagon receptor), 55 nM (human glucagon receptor)[2]

In Vitro

GRA Ex-25 binds a human glucagon receptor (h-GlucRbind) with Ki of 63 nM and a moderate glucagon induced adenylate cyclase inhibition (h-GlucRcyclase) with Ki of 254 nM under our assay conditions[1]. GRA Ex-25 has similar affinity to the rat and human glucagon receptors (IC50=56 and 55 nM, respectively)[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

GRA Ex-25 (3 mg/kg, i.v.) significantly reduces blood glucose caused by exogenous administration of glucagon in rat model. GRA Ex-25 is able to inhibit the rise in blood glucose levels elicited by exogenous administered glucagon, most likely because of the direct inhibition of glucagon stimulated hepatic glucose output[2].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.44 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.69 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Animal Administration
[2]

Non-fasted male Sprague Dawley rats (200 g) are maintained in the anaesthetized state during the test by s.c. administration of a 1:1 mixture of Hypnorm (fentanyl, 0.05 mg/mL and fluanizone, 2.5 mg/mL) and Dormicum (Midazolam, 1.25 mg/mL). Acatheter is inserted in a jugular vein for administration of compounds. Approximately 60 min after initiation of anesthesia, test compounds (0, 1, 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg) and glucagon (3 μg/kg) are administered in 5 min intervals, respectively. Samples for determination of blood glucose concentrations are taken from the tail tip 25 and 5 min prior to administration of the compound to represent average basal values and again 10 min after administration of glucagon (time for peak response of glucagon). The results are expressed as delta values calculated as the value obtained 10 min after alucagon administration minus the average of the two basal values.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
