Description

BIIE-0246 is a potent and highly selective non-peptide neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y2 receptor antagonist, with an IC50 of 15 nM.

IC50 & Target

NPY Y2 receptor

15±3 nM (IC50)

In Vitro

Receptor binding assays in HEK 293 cells transfected with the rat Y2 receptor cDNA demonstrate that BIIE-0246 competes with high affinity (IC50=15±3 nM) against specific [125I]PYY3-36 binding sites. In contrast, BIIE-0246, at concentrations up to 10 μM, fails to compete for significant amounts of specific [125I]GR231118, [125I]hPP and [125I][Leu31, Pro34]PYY binding sites in HEK 293 cells transfected with the rat Y1, Y4 or Y5 receptor cDNA, respectively[1].

In Vivo

On chow diet, genetically obese NPY mice show increased gain in body weight and adiposity. Treatment with BIIE-0246 promotes body weight gain in both genotypes after 4.5 weeks, and already at 2 weeks. BIIE-0246 has no significant effect on fat mass gain. In DIO, BIIE-0246 has different effects on body weight and composition depending on the genotype (treatment×genotype interaction in body weight P<0.05, in fat mass P<0.001 and in lean mass P<0.05). In DIO-WT group, post hoc analysis reveals increased body weight and fat mass gain, and a tendency to decrease lean mass gain. In DIO-NPY, BIIE-0246 inhibits fat mass gain (P=0.05). Interestingly, increased cholesterol levels are detected also in WT mice treated with BIIE-0246 for 2 weeks, but not in the 4.5-week cohort. In DIO-NPY mice in both treatment groups, cholesterol levels correlate positively with body fat mass (DIO-NPY vehicle P<0.01; DIO-NPY BIIE-0246 P<0.001), but not in any other group, and the slope of the regression curve of cholesterol and fat mass is significantly decreased in BIIE-0246-treated DIO-NPY group when compared with vehicle-treated group[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 (2.79 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (2.79 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 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

Mice[2]
Homozygous transgenic male OE-NPYDbH and WT mice are used. The mice are housed at 21±3°C with a 12-h light/12-h dark cycle. To study the effect of Y2-receptor antagonism in healthy conditions, standard rodent chow is fed ad libitum to OE-NPYDbH (NPY) and WT mice. To study the effect in DIO, western diet is fed for 8 weeks prior to the drug administration. Drug treatment is studied at the age of 20 weeks. Prior to treatments the mice are habituated for 2 weeks to the handling stress with daily saline injections (i.p). Mice receive 1.3 mg/kg of Y2-receptor antagonist (BIIE-0246) or vehicle with daily IP injections. At termination, mice are fasted for 3 h and blood glucose is measured from awake animals. Mice are then anesthetized with ketamine (75 mg/kg i.p) and medetomidine (1 mg/kg i.p). Subcutaneous, epididymal, retroperitoneal and mesenteric white adipose tissue (WAT) pads, interscapular brown adipose tissue (BAT) and liver are collected and weighed[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.
