Product Description

Anacetrapib (formerly also known as MK0859; MK-0859), a poly-fluorinated lipophilic compound, is a selective and reversible inhibitor of CETP (Cholesteryl ester transfer protein) and mutant CETP(C13S) with the potential to treat cardiovascular disease. In inhibits CETP and mutant CETP(C13S) with IC50s of 7.9 nM and 11.8 nM. Anacetrapib increases HDL-C and decreases LDL-C, and does not increase aldosterone or blood pressure. It is being developed for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia (elevated cholesterol levels) and prevent cardiovascular disease. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein, also called plasma lipid transfer protein, is a plasma protein that facilitates the transport of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between the lipoproteins.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
The transfer of CE from HDL3 to HDL2 is considerably and dose-dependently reduced by anacetrapib (P<0.001 for doses up to and including 0.1 µM). The amount that [14C]Torcetrapib (0.25 µM) binds to immobilized rhCETP is reduced by 82% and 60%, respectively, by excess anacetrapib (25 µM). Pre-β-HDL production is reduced by over 46% (P<0.001) by anacetrapib at all investigated concentrations (0.1, 1, 3, and 10 µM)[1]. Anacetrapib (ANA) significantly reduces PCSK9 promoter activity; this is seen at 3 µM concentration (−22%, p<0.01), and at 10 µM, it is even lower, at 68% of control. Similarly, Anacetrapib reduces the luciferase activity of B11 cells starting at a concentration of 3 µM and reaches a maximum reduction of 38% of control at 10 µM. Anacetrapib reduces PCSK9 mRNA to 60% of control and LDLR mRNA to 67% of control at 10 µM concentration[2].
ln Vivo
Anacetrapib is administered to hamsters for seven days prior to the injection of [3H]cholesterol-labeled macrophages (day 0). Day 0 HDL-C values are significantly elevated following anacetrapib treatment. Day 3 [3H]cholesterol radioactivity in the HDL fraction is substantially higher than Anacetrapib control values[1]. When compared to a vehicle control, anacetrapib (ANA) medication slightly raises serum levels of total serum cholesterol by around 10% (p<0.05) and serum levels of LDL-C by 26% (p<0.05)[2]. The mean values for terminal half-life, steady-state volume of distribution, and systemic plasma clearance following an intravenous dosage of 0.5 mg/kg are 12 hours, 1.1 L/kg, and 2.3 mL/min/kg, respectively. Anacetrapib has a 38% bioavailability after oral dosage at 5 mg/kg. Exposures (AUC) rise from 23 μM·h at 5 mg/kg to 362 μM·h at 500 mg/kg in a manner that is not dose-proportional. The time to attain peak plasma level (Tmax) ranged from 3 to 4.5 hours, and the peak plasma level (Cmax) ranged from 5 to 26 μM in this dosing range[3].
Animal Protocol
Dissolved in polyethylene glycol 300-water (7:3, v/v); 2.5 mL/kg (2.5, 25, 50, 250 mg/mL); oral gavage
Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats

*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.

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)
