Description

Ampkinone is an indirect AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator.

IC50 & Target[1]

AMPK

 

In Vitro

Ampkinone stimulates the phosphorylation of AMPK via the indirect activation of AMPK in various cell lines. Ampkinone-mediated activation of AMPK requires the activity of LKB1 and results in increased glucose uptake inmuscle cells[1].

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

In Vivo

Ampkinone-treated DIO mice significantly reduce total body weight and overall fat mass. Histological examination and measurement of lipid parameters show that Ampkinone effectively improves metabolic abnormalities in the DIO mice model[1].

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 (4.95 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.

Kinase Assay
[1]

Total AMPK activity is measured using a synthetic SAMS peptide substrate and [γ-32P]ATP. Briefly, 500 μg of protein extract is incubated with anti-AMPK-α1 and α2 antibodies for 2 h at 4°C. Protein A/G sepharose and agarose are added, and the mixtures are incubated for 3 h at 4°C. After the samples are washed three times with RIPA buffer, the activity is assessed in AMPK reaction buffer containing 20 mM HEPES-NaOH (pH 7.0), 0.4 mM Dithiothreitol, and 0.01% Brij-35, with or without 300 μM AMP. The immune complexes are added to 23 μL of reaction buffer per assay, and then 7 μL of SAMS substrate peptide (HMRSAMSGLHLVKRR, 100 μM final concentration) and 10 μL of ATP mixture (an aliquot of 1 μCi/μL: 90 μL of 75 mM magnesium chloride, 500 μM unlabeled ATP in 20 mM MOPS, pH7.2, 25 mMβ-glycerophosphate, 5 mM EGTA, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, and 1 mM Dithiothreitol) are added, and the mixture is incubated at 30°C for 15 min. After 35 μL is spotted onto the center of P81 paper, the paper is washed three times with 0.75% phosphoric acid and once with acetone for 5 min. The samples are read using a scintillation counter[1].

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice[1]
C57BL/6J mice are used and housed individually in a room maintained at 25°C on a 12/12 h light/dark schedule. For dietinduced obesity (DIO) mice, 4-week-old male C57BL/6J mice are fed a high-fat diet (HFD, 60% calories from fat) ad libitum for 8 weeks. Ampkinone in polyethylene glycol (PEG400) or vehicle is administered subcutaneously at 10 mg/kg body weight per day for 1 month. Body weight and food intake are measured every 3 days. All animals are given an insulin tolerance test (ITT) and sacrificed at 30 days. Liver weight and fat masses are measured, sectioned, and stained with Oil-red O and H&E.

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.
