Product Description

Alicapistat (also known as ABT957; ABT-957) is a novel, potent, selective and orally bioactive inhibitor of human calpains 1 and 2 whose overactivation has been linked to Alzheimer disease (AD). It has the potential usefulness in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In clinical trials, Alicapistat at 400- or 800-mg twice-daily doses had no effect on REM sleep parameters, whereas the active control, donepezil at 10 mg twice daily, affected sleep parameters. Across all trials, the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was similar in the placebo and alicapistat groups. There were no clinically significant changes in vital signs and laboratory measurements. The lack of an effect of alicapistat on sleep suggests that concentrations in the CNS were inadequate or that preclinical studies do not predict alicapistat effects in humans.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
To achieve pharmacodynamic effects, Alicapistat's CNS osmotic concentration is insufficient [1]. Both calcium 1 (u-) and calcium 2 (m-) are expressed as calcium ions, and u-is necessary for the activation of each calcium ion. Compound 22 (Alicapistat) at 100 nM inhibits synaptic transmission impairments caused by Aβ oligomers in Contact [2]. In hippocampus slice cultures, alicapistat (Compound 22) (385 nM) has demonstrated effectiveness in averting NMDA-induced neurotoxicity and A-induced synaptic dysfunction [2]. In a variety of concentration experiments, aliapistat (9–21 nM) has demonstrated no dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and has CSF values that fall short of the IC50 for calcium inhibition [3].
ln Vivo
The majority of the mean venous clearance (CLp) values (0.13-1.04 L/hr.kg) in mice, rats, and dogs were proven by Alicapistat (Compound 22) (intravenous or intravenous; 1-3 mg/kg), however the aforementioned value (1.98 liters/hour.kg) was observed in monkeys. In mice, dogs, and monkeys, the mean growth rate (Vss) ranged from 0.64 to 1.8 L/kg, with mice exhibiting the highest Vss of 3.4 L/kg. Dogs had the longest half-hour elimination life (t1/2) at 1.7 hours, followed by monkeys at 2.3 hours and monkeys at 6.0 hours. Dogs and fortresses have high (>80%) fortress bioavailability (F) values, but monkeys have moderate (14%) values [2].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~50 mg/mL (~115.34 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 4.17 mg/mL (9.62 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 41.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.77 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.3068 mL 11.5340 mL 23.0681 mL
5 mM 0.4614 mL 2.3068 mL 4.6136 mL
10 mM 0.2307 mL 1.1534 mL 2.3068 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
