| Targets |
Target: Cortistatin-14 targets all five cloned somatostatin receptors (sst1-sst5) and the ghrelin receptor. It exhibits binding affinity with IC50 values for somatostatin receptor binding: sst2 0.09 nM, sst4 0.2 nM, sst3 0.3 nM, sst5 0.3 nM, sst1 5 nM. The compound prevents somatostatin-14 binding at these receptors. It also binds to the ghrelin receptor to exert its biological activities.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In Vitro Activity: Cortistatin-14 displays potency at all five somatostatin receptors with IC50 values ranging from 0.09 to 5 nM. It binds to the ghrelin receptor to exert its biological activities. The neuropeptide demonstrates neuronal depressant activity. CST-14 and BDNF mRNA are decreased in hippocampus and cortex once mice are exposed to stress. Detailed in vitro activity data are available from the primary literature.
|
| ln Vivo |
In Vivo Activity: Centrally administered Cortistatin-14 induces antidepressant-like effects in mice via mediating ghrelin and GABAA receptor signaling pathways. Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) or intranasal administration of CST-14 produces rapid antidepressant effects. NIR fluorescence imaging detected brain uptake and distribution after intranasal CST-14. Antidepressant effects of CST-14 are related to ghrelin and GABAA system. Co-injection of CST-14 and NPS produces antidepressant effects without impairing memory. In depression models, CST-14 produced antidepressant-like effects without altering locomotor activity levels.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In Vitro Enzyme/Receptor Binding Protocol: Somatostatin receptor binding assays typically use membrane preparations from cells expressing specific SSTR subtypes. Radioligand binding with [125I]somatostatin-14 or similar ligands is performed with varying concentrations of Cortistatin-14 to determine IC50 values. Ghrelin receptor binding assays may also be performed using appropriate radioligands.
|
| Cell Assay |
In Vitro Cell-Based Assay Protocol: Cells expressing somatostatin receptors or ghrelin receptors are treated with Cortistatin-14 at various concentrations. Receptor activation and downstream signaling are measured using standard assays such as cAMP accumulation or calcium mobilization. Neuronal activity may be assessed using electrophysiological techniques. Gene expression changes including BDNF mRNA can be measured by qPCR.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In Vivo Animal Assay Protocol: Mouse models of depression are used to evaluate antidepressant-like effects. Cortistatin-14 is administered centrally (i.c.v.) or intranasally. Behavioral tests such as forced swim test, tail suspension test, or open field test are performed. NIR fluorescence imaging is used to detect brain uptake and distribution after intranasal administration. Stress-induced depression models may also be employed.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetics: Cortistatin-14 has molecular formula C81H113N19O19S2 and molecular weight 1721.01. As a cyclic peptide, it is expected to have limited oral bioavailability and is typically administered parenterally (i.c.v. or intranasal). NIR fluorescence imaging has been used to detect brain uptake and distribution after intranasal administration.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity: No detailed toxicity data are publicly available for Cortistatin-14. As an endogenous neuropeptide, it is expected to have a favorable safety profile. In animal studies, CST-14 produced antidepressant-like effects without altering locomotor activity levels. Standard toxicological evaluation would be required for therapeutic development. The compound is for research use only.

| Additional Infomation |
Additional Information: Cortistatin-14 has CAS number 193829-96-8. It is also known as CST-14, CST14, and CST 14. The neuropeptide is mainly expressed in the cortex and hippocampus and coexists with GABA. It has structural and functional similarities to somatostatin-14. CST-14 has potential applications in depression, sleep disorders, and neurological conditions. The peptide sequence is Pro-Cys-Lys-Asn-Phe-Phe-Trp-Lys-Thr-Phe-Ser-Ser-Cys-Lys.
