Biological Activity
EC50: 0.06 nM (GLP-1)[1]
Taspoglutide (R1583/BIM51077) is a long acting 10% formulation of (Aib8-35) human GLP-1 (7-36 amides) with 93% homology with the native polypeptide. It activates the GLP-1 receptor. Taspoglutide has comparable affinity (affinity constant 1.1±0.2 nM) to the natural ligand (affinity constant 1.5±0.3 nM) for the hGLP-1 receptor and exhibits comparable potency in stimulating cAMP production[2].

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: 1.25 mg/mL (0.37 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a clear solution of 1.25 mg/mL.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: 1.25 mg/mL (0.37 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a clear solution of 1.25 mg/mL.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 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.

Working solution concentration: 0.22 mg/mL
Method for preparing stock solution: mg drug dissolved in μL DMSO. Stock solution concentration: mg/mL. * In solvent : -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture and light)
1. Take μL DMSO stock solution;
2. Add μL .

3. Then add μL Tween 80, mix evenly;
4. Then add μL
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
Rats: The Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats (animal model of type 2 diabetes) are used in the study. ZDF rats are treated acutely (0.1, 1, 10 μg/kg) or chronically (sustained-release of 1 mg) with a single long-acting dose of taspoglutide. Pioglitazone is used as a positive control in the chronic study. Postprandial glucose, body weight, glycaemic control and insulin sensitivity are assessed over 21 days in chronically treated animals[4].
Mice: High-fat diet-fed male ApoE-/- mice are used in the study. Mice with glucose levels from 15-25 mM are then randomized to different groups and treated for 12 wk with a once-monthly sc 0.4-mg taspoglutide microtablet suspension, a sc placebo microtablet, or metformin (400 mg/kg*d) continuously provided in the drinking water plus a sc placebo microtablet[5].
