Description

Pradigastat (LCQ-908) is a potent, selective and orally active diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) inhibitor. Pradigastat has anti-obesity and anti-diabetic effects[1][2].

IC50 & Target

Diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1)[1]

In Vitro

Pradigastat inhibits breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)-mediated efflux activity in a dose-dependent fashion in a BCRP over-expressing human ovarian cancer cell line with an IC50 value of 5 μM. Pradigastat inhibits OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OAT3 activity in a concentration-dependent manner with estimated IC50 values of 1.66 μM, 3.34 μM, and 0.973 μM, respectively[2].

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

In Vivo

Pradigastat (LCQ-908) inhibits the postprandial triglyceride levels in rats, dogs and monkeys. In rats whose lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity has been abolished, Pradigastat reduces the postprandial accumulation of plasma triglyceride. Pradigastat decreases the postprandial rate of chylomicron triglyceride (CM-TG) secretion into the lymphatic duct and reduces the size of chylomicrons[3].

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 (5.49 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    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

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.
