Product Description
Calcitonin (8-32), salmon is a selective amylin receptor blocker (antagonist).
Calcitonin (8-32), salmon (CAS 155069-90-2) is an N-terminally truncated peptide fragment of full-length salmon calcitonin (sCT 1-32) that acts as a highly selective amylin receptor antagonist. It is a 24-amino acid peptide with the sequence VLGKLSQELHKLQTYPRTNTSGTP-NH2 and a molecular weight of 2725.06. Unlike the full-length hormone involved in calcium and phosphorus metabolism, this fragment lacks the N-terminal region required for calcitonin receptor agonism and instead functions as a competitive antagonist at amylin receptors. It is widely used as a research tool to dissect amylin-specific physiological effects, particularly in studies of insulin regulation, glucose metabolism, and pancreatic hormone secretion.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Amylin Receptor (AMY1, AMY2, AMY3 subtypes). Calcitonin (8-32), salmon acts as a competitive antagonist at amylin receptors, which are heterodimers of the calcitonin receptor and receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs). It equipotently blocks CT(a), AMY1(a), and AMY3(a) receptors with a pKB of approximately 8. Unlike irreversible agonists, it is a rapidly reversible antagonist, allowing complete washout between treatments-a feature essential for repeated drug addition protocols in CT/AMY-expressing cells. The compound does not activate calcitonin receptors due to the absence of the N-terminal residues 1-7 required for receptor activation.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Calcitonin (8-32), salmon functions as a competitive antagonist at amylin and calcitonin-family receptors. It exhibits potent inhibition of amylin-induced signaling in receptor-expressing cell lines, effectively blocking amylin-mediated cAMP accumulation and downstream effects. The compound demonstrates high selectivity for amylin receptors over other calcitonin-family receptors, making it a valuable tool for distinguishing amylin-specific responses from those mediated by calcitonin or CGRP receptors. Its reversible binding kinetics allow for precise pharmacological characterization in receptor binding and functional assays.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Calcitonin (8-32), salmon has been studied in rat models for its effects on pancreatic hormone secretion. In the perfused rat pancreas, this amylin antagonist was shown to reverse amylin-induced inhibition of insulin secretion, achieving approximately 80% reversal. The compound has also been used to investigate the role of amylin in glucose homeostasis, calcium metabolism, and bone remodeling. Its in vivo antagonism of amylin receptors helps delineate the physiological functions of endogenous amylin, particularly in metabolic regulation and pancreatic endocrine function.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding (cell-free) assays for Calcitonin (8-32), salmon typically involve radioligand binding competition studies using membrane preparations from cells expressing recombinant amylin or calcitonin receptors. The compound is incubated with varying concentrations of radiolabeled amylin or calcitonin in binding buffer containing appropriate protease inhibitors. Non-specific binding is determined in the presence of excess unlabeled ligand. After incubation at room temperature for 1-2 hours, bound and free radioligands are separated by rapid filtration through glass fiber filters, followed by washing and scintillation counting. IC50 or Ki values are calculated from competition curves using nonlinear regression analysis.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Calcitonin (8-32), salmon typically use cell lines stably expressing recombinant amylin receptors (e.g., AMY1, AMY2, AMY3) or calcitonin receptors. Cells are seeded in 96-well plates and pre-incubated with varying concentrations of the peptide antagonist for 30-60 minutes, followed by stimulation with a fixed concentration of amylin or calcitonin agonist. Functional readouts include cAMP accumulation measured by ELISA or HTRF, or intracellular calcium mobilization detected by fluorescent calcium indicators. Antagonist potency is expressed as IC50 or pKB values. The reversible nature of the antagonist allows for washout experiments to confirm competitive binding kinetics.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies with Calcitonin (8-32), salmon are commonly conducted in rat models. A typical protocol involves intravenous or intraperitoneal administration of the peptide at doses ranging from 10-100 microg/kg, followed by assessment of metabolic or endocrine parameters. In the perfused rat pancreas model, the compound is infused through the pancreatic artery, and insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin release are measured in the perfusate. Blood glucose, calcium, and hormone levels are monitored at various time points post-administration. Studies may also involve co-administration with amylin to evaluate antagonist effects on amylin-induced physiological responses.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Calcitonin (8-32), salmon are characteristic of peptide therapeutics. As a 24-amino acid peptide with a molecular weight of 2725.06 Da, it is susceptible to proteolytic degradation in the gastrointestinal tract and has poor oral bioavailability. When administered parenterally (intravenous or subcutaneous), the peptide has a relatively short plasma half-life due to rapid clearance via renal filtration and enzymatic degradation. It is typically formulated in aqueous solution and stored at -20degC or -80degC for long-term stability. The compound is soluble in water at concentrations up to 100 mg/mL. In vivo pharmacokinetic studies require appropriate formulation and route of administration for optimal exposure.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Calcitonin (8-32), salmon are primarily derived from preclinical studies in animal models. As a research-use peptide antagonist, comprehensive toxicity profiles are not as extensively documented as for therapeutic agents. The compound is generally well-tolerated at pharmacological doses in rodent studies, with no significant acute toxicity reported. Standard safety precautions for peptide handling apply, including avoidance of repeated freeze-thaw cycles and protection from light and moisture. It is intended for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications. Long-term toxicity and carcinogenicity studies have not been systematically conducted for this research compound.
