Product Description
BL-1249 is a novel, potent and selective K2P2.1 (TREK-1) and K2P10.1 (TREK-2) potassium channel activator. BL-1249 potently activates K2P2.1(TREK-1) and K2P10.1(TREK-2) with EC50 values of 5.5 μM and 8.0 μM, respectively. Extracellular application of BL-1249 activates all TREK subfamily members but has no effect on other K2P subfamilies. BL-1249 exhibits more selective for the bladder (EC50 of 1.26 μM) than vascular tissue (EC50 of 21.0 μM).
BL-1249 (CAS 18200-13-0) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory compound that functions as a selective and potent activator of the TREK subfamily of K2P potassium channels. With molecular formula C17H17N5 and molecular weight 291.35, it activates K2P2.1 (TREK-1) and K2P10.1 (TREK-2) with EC50 values of 5.5 μM and 8.0 μM, respectively. The compound is used in research on potassium channel biology, inflammation, and smooth muscle physiology.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
BL-1249 targets K2P2.1 (TREK-1) and K2P10.1 (TREK-2) potassium channels. It acts as a selective activator of the TREK subfamily of K2P channels, showing approximately 10-fold greater activity against K2P2.1 and K2P10.1 compared to K2P4.1 (TRAAK). The compound interacts with the negatively charged activator site on K2P channels and modulates channel opening. It also inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme.
ln Vitro
In human bladder myocytes that have been cultured, BL-1249 causes a concentration-dependent membrane hyperpolarization. This can be measured using direct electrophysiological measurement (EC50 = 1.49 μM) or the voltage-sensitive dye bis(1,2-dibutylbarbituric acid)trimethanine oxocyanine (EC50 of 1.26 μM). With an EC50 of 21.0 μM, BL-1249 causes concentration-dependent hyperpolarization in human aortic smooth muscle cells [1]. When evaluated at the maximum dose (10 μM), BL-1249 did not cause concentration-dependent relaxation of 30 mM KCl-induced contractions in rat bladder strips, but it did in rat aorta strips. These results were obtained from in vitro organ bath tests. Impact. ). Ba2+ at concentrations of 1 and 10 mM partially inhibits the bladder relaxation that BL-1249 produces. A selective agonist belonging to the TREK subfamily is BL-1249. Its effect on K2P2.1 (TREK-1) and K2P10.1 (TREK-2) when applied extracellularly is preferential over K2P4.1 (TRAAK), and its mechanism of action is found to be dependent on the gating of the selective filter C-type gate [2].
In vitro, BL-1249 demonstrates concentration-dependent membrane depolarization in cultured human bladder myocytes as assessed by voltage-sensitive dye fluorescence reduction (EC50 = 1.26 ± 0.6 μM) or direct electrophysiological measurement (EC50 = 1.49 ± 0.08 μM). Patch-clamp experiments show that BL-1249 stimulates the selectivity filter 'C-type' gate that controls K2P function. Studies on mutants and K2P2.1/K2P4.1 chimeras highlight the critical role of the C-terminal tail in BL-1249 action and identify the M2/M3 transmembrane helix interface as a key site for selectivity.
ln Vivo
In vivo, isovolumetric bladder contractions are inhibited by BL-1249 (1 mg/kg). The brief half-life of BL-1249's effect on bladder contraction (30 minutes) could potentially be attributed to the compound's quick clearance following intravenous treatment (0.69 hours) [1]. The study found that BL-1249 (1 mg/kg) had minimal impact on mean arterial pressure. This finding aligns with the in vitro bladder's selectivity for vasorelaxants [1].
In vivo, BL-1249 (1 mg/kg intravenous) reduces the number of isovolumic contractions in anesthetized rat models without significantly affecting blood pressure. This demonstrates that BL-1249 exhibits bladder versus vascular selectivity as a potassium channel activator in both in vitro and in vivo settings. The compound has also been used as an activator of mechano-gated K2P channels in contracted mouse ileum and colon tissues.
Enzyme Assay
Not specifically documented for BL-1249. For potassium channel activators, typical cell-free binding assays involve radioligand displacement or fluorescence-based membrane potential measurements using isolated membrane preparations. BL-1249's activity is primarily characterized through electrophysiological techniques rather than direct binding assays. The compound is known to interact with the negatively charged activator site on K2P channels.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for BL-1249 include voltage-sensitive dye fluorescence assays and patch-clamp electrophysiology in cultured human bladder myocytes to assess channel activation. Cell viability and proliferation assays may also be conducted. The compound has been used as a TREK2 modulator in U-2 OS osteosarcoma cell lines. Concentration ranges typically span from low micromolar to higher concentrations depending on the assay format.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies with BL-1249 have been conducted in rat models. Anesthetized rats received BL-1249 at 1 mg/kg via intravenous injection to assess effects on isovolumic contractions and blood pressure. The compound has also been used as a TREK1 and TREK2 activator in mice. Additional studies may involve mouse ileum and colon tissue contraction models. Dosing routes and regimens vary by experimental design.
