| Targets |
GPI-1485 targets immunophilins, specifically FKBP52 (FK506-binding protein 52), a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase. Unlike FK506, which has immunosuppressive effects through FKBP12 and calcineurin inhibition, GPI-1485 selectively binds to FKBP52 and retains neuroprotective activity without immunosuppressive side effects. The compound promotes neurofunctional improvement and neural regeneration through neurotrophic factor-like activity. The molecular targets and pathways involved include the peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase FKBP1A, which plays a role in neuroprotection.

| ln Vitro |
Normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) undergo cellular reprogramming and neural activation upon exposure to GPI-1485 (GM1485; 100 μM) [1].
In vitro studies show that GPI-1485 (100 μM) induces cell reprogramming and neural cell induction in normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF). The compound promotes neurofunctional improvement and neural regeneration through neurotrophic activity. As a non-immunosuppressive immunophilin ligand, GPI-1485 retains neuroprotective activity without immunosuppressive effects. The compound's neurotrophic activity leads to the repair and regeneration of damaged nerves. In cellular assays, GPI-1485 promotes neuronal survival and neurite outgrowth. |
| ln Vivo |
In intraperitoneal injection given daily for six weeks, GPI-1485 (GM1485; 5 mg/kg) enhances rats' long-term neurological recovery [1].
In vivo studies demonstrate that GPI-1485 promotes neurofunctional improvement and neural regeneration following stroke. GPI-1485 (5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once daily for 6 weeks) significantly promoted long-term neural recovery in rats. The compound has been investigated for use in Parkinson's disease and erectile dysfunction. GPI-1485 is commonly used in research on neurofunctional impairment and regeneration in neurodegenerative diseases. The compound's ability to promote neural regeneration without immunosuppression makes it attractive for neurological research. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro receptor binding assay for GPI-1485 involves measuring FKBP52 binding affinity. Recombinant FKBP52 is incubated with varying concentrations of GPI-1485 (1 nM-100 μM) and a fixed concentration of radiolabeled FK506 or other FKBP ligand. Non-specific binding is determined using excess unlabeled FK506. IC50 values are calculated from competition binding curves. Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity of FKBP52 is measured using a chymotrypsin-coupled protease assay with a peptide substrate. The compound's effect on isomerase activity is assessed. Selectivity for FKBP52 over FKBP12 is confirmed by comparing binding affinities.

Neurological function is assessed using behavioral tests (e.g., modified neurological severity scores, rotarod test). Lesion volume is measured by histology or MRI. Neural regeneration is assessed by immunohistochemistry for neural markers (NeuN, GFAP). For Parkinson's disease models, MPTP-treated mice are used. Behavioral tests and dopaminergic neuron survival are assessed. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of GPI-1485 indicate the compound is suitable for systemic administration. The compound has a molecular weight of 269.34 and molecular formula of C12H19NO5?. It is soluble in DMSO and other organic solvents. The compound should be stored at -20°C for long-term preservation. After intraperitoneal or oral administration, the compound reaches systemic circulation and distributes to tissues including the brain. The duration of neuroprotective activity is consistent with the compound's half-life. Further studies on plasma half-life, clearance, and protein binding are needed.

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for GPI-1485 indicates a favorable safety profile compared to immunosuppressive immunophilins. The compound retains neuroprotective activity without immunosuppressive side effects, suggesting reduced toxicity. The compound is for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling. For detailed toxicity information, specialized toxicological studies would need to be performed.

| Additional Infomation |
GPI 1485 is a candidate product belonging to a class of small molecule compounds called neuroimmunavidin ligands. Preclinical studies have shown that neuroimmunavidin ligands can repair and regenerate damaged nerves without affecting normal healthy nerves. GPI 1485 is currently in a Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and erectile dysfunction after prostatectomy, and is also undergoing preclinical development for HIV-related dementia and neuropathy.
Drug Indications It is being investigated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction and Parkinson's disease. Mechanism of Action GPI 1485 belongs to a class of small molecule compounds called neuroimmunavidin ligands, which are highly conserved binding proteins that mediate the effects of immunosuppressants. The FK-506-binding protein (FKBP) subclass of immunoavidins can bind to FK-506 and rapamycin and has attracted attention due to its potent neurotrophic activity. GPI-1485 (GM1485) is a research-grade compound with CAS number 186268-78-0. It is a non-immunosuppressive neuroimmunophilin ligand derived from FK506. The compound selectively binds to FKBP52 and retains neuroprotective activity. It promotes neurofunctional improvement and neural regeneration following stroke. The compound has been investigated for Parkinson's disease and erectile dysfunction. Its mechanism involves neurotrophic factor-like activity and neural regeneration. It has not been FDA-approved and is strictly for research purposes only. |
