YH18968 is an orally active GPR119 agonist with an EC50 of 2.8 nM for inducing cAMP accumulation. YH18968 activates GPR119, elevates intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate levels, stimulates glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion from intestinal L cells, and triggers glucose-dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells. YH18968 improves glucose tolerance in normal mice and diet-induced obese mice. YH18968 can be used for the research of type 2 diabetes.

Description

YH18968 is an orally active GPR119 agonist with an EC50 of 2.8 nM for inducing cAMP accumulation. YH18968 activates GPR119, elevates intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate levels, stimulates glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion from intestinal L cells, and triggers glucose-dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells. YH18968 improves glucose tolerance in normal mice and diet-induced obese mice. YH18968 can be used for the research of type 2 diabetes[1].

In Vitro

YH18968 (0.03-1000 nM; 60 min) stimulates insulin secretion in HIT-T15 cells in a dose-dependent manner, with an EC50 of 3.5 nM[1].
YH18968 (0.03-1000 nM; 120 min) stimulates GLP-1 secretion from GLUTag cells in a dose-dependent manner, with an EC50 of 0.1 nM[1].
YH18968 (0.1-100 μM; 48 h) exhibits extremely low cytotoxicity in HIT-T15, GLUTag and HepG2 cells, with an LC50 greater than 100 μM in all three cell lines[1].

ELISA Assay[1]

Cell Line: HIT-T15 hamster insulinoma cells
Concentration: 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, 10, 30, 100, 300, and 1,000 nM nM (15 mM glucose condition); 100 nM (0, 3, or 15 mM glucose conditions)
Incubation Time: 60 min
Result: Elicited dose-dependent increases in insulin release with an EC50 of 3.5 nM.
Enhanced insulin release in a glucose-dependent manner at 100 nM, with a significant increase observed at 15 mM glucose (2.19-fold vs control) and no effect in the absence of glucose.

ELISA Assay[1]

Cell Line: GLUTag murine intestinal L cells
Concentration: 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, 10, 30, 100, 300, and 1,000 nM
Incubation Time: 120 min
Result: Enhanced GLP-1 secretion in a dose-dependent manner with an EC50 of 0.1 nM.

In Vivo

YH18968 (0.1-10 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) dose-dependently improves glucose tolerance in normal C57BL/6J mice[1].
YH18968 (0.1-10 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) significantly improves glucose tolerance in DIO mice, with its efficacy reaching saturation at 1 mg/kg[1].
YH18968 (1 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily; for 28 consecutive days) for 4 consecutive weeks sustains improved glucose tolerance in DIO mice without rapid desensitization, and produces a synergistic effect when combined with Linagliptin (HY-10284)[1].

Animal Model: C57BL/6J (8-week-old, male)[1]
Dosage: 0.1 mg/kg; 1 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg + 1 mg/kg linagliptin
Administration: p.o.; single dose
Result: Significantly lowered the 2-hour area under the curve (AUC) for blood glucose in a dose-dependent manner compared to vehicle control.
Produced a significant additive glucose-lowering effect when co-administered with 1 mg/kg linagliptin.
Increased active plasma GLP-1 levels by 2.7-fold compared to vehicle control at 30 minutes post-administration at 10 mg/kg dose.
Co-administration with linagliptin significantly increased active GLP-1 levels compared to either agent alone.
Animal Model: diet-induced obese (DIO) (17-week-old, male, Type 2 diabetes model)[1]
Dosage: 0.1 mg/kg; 1 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg
Administration: p.o.; single dose
Result: Significantly lowered the 2-hour AUC for blood glucose compared to vehicle control at 1 and 10 mg/kg doses, with a dose-dependent effect observed.
Produced similar levels of glucose lowering at 1 and 10 mg/kg doses, indicating a saturated effect.
Animal Model: diet-induced obese (DIO) (17-week-old, male, Type 2 diabetes model)[1]
Dosage: 1 mg/kg; 1 mg/kg + 1 mg/kg linagliptin
Administration: p.o.; once daily; 28 days
Result: Significantly lowered the 2-hour AUC for blood glucose compared to vehicle control on day 1, with a more potent effect than 10 mg/kg MBX2982 (HY-15291).
Produced an additive glucose-lowering effect when co-administered with 1 mg/kg linagliptin compared to either agent alone on day 1.
Continued to effectively lower the 2-hour AUC for blood glucose on day 29, maintaining glucose tolerance improvement equivalent to day 1 efficacy when used alone or in combination with Linagliptin.

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.
