Product Description

AZD4017, a nicotinic amide derived carboxylic acid, is a novel, potent, selective and effective inhibitor of 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 (11β-HSD1) in human adipocytes with an IC50 of 7 nM. It exhibits good druglike properties and as a consequence was selected for clinical development. Inhibition of 11β-HSD1 is an attractive mechanism for the treatment of obesity and other elements of the metabolic syndrome. AZD4017 has good potency, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic characteristics.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
AZD 4017 displays no detectable activity against glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors, but demonstrates remarkable selectivity against related enzymes 11-βHSD2, 17β-HSD1, and 17β-HSD3 (all IC50>30 μM). With the exception of cynomolgus monkeys (IC50=0.029 μM), AZD 4017 has markedly reduced activity in various species, despite its high potency against the human version of 11β-HSD1. Furthermore, as adipose tissue is believed to be an important target organ, suppression of 11β-HSD1 activity was assessed in isolated human adipocytes from individuals without diabetes. There is considerable certainty that AZD 4017 is not restricted by adipose tissue because of its acidic nature because it was demonstrated to be a strong inhibitor of this important target tissue (IC50=0.002 μM), which is in good accord with the potency of the enzyme [1].
ln Vivo
Only a few preclinical pharmacodynamic evaluations were carried out because of AZD 4017's low efficacy against the mouse enzyme. Increasing the doses further produced a maximal effect of about 70% inhibition at 1500 mg/kg, which is comparable to 10×IC50 in mice. This indicates that AZD 4017 inhibits 11β-HSD1 in this model in a dose-dependent manner [1].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~125 mg/mL (~297.92 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.96 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 20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.96 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 20.8 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.)

*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
