| Targets |
GRGDSPK targets integrins, a family of cell surface receptors that mediate cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. By containing the RGD sequence, it competitively binds to integrins, blocking integrin-fibronectin binding and inhibiting integrin-mediated cell adhesion, migration, and signaling.

| ln Vitro |
GRGDSPK (EMD 56574; RGD; 0.1-50 μM; for 4 days) inhibits mineralization in parietal bones separated from pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats on day 18 in a dose-dependent manner as determined by calcium content and 70 bone tissue area. 1]. For four days, GRGDSPK (10, 50 μM) can drastically alter the shape of bones and kill osteoblasts and mineralized matrix tissue [1]. When added to the culture medium, GRGDSPK (RGD; 250 μM) greatly increases the average size of wild-type cell aggregates and effectively prevents integrin-fibronectin binding [2]. Wild-type mesendodermal progenitors show significantly decreased adhesion and work upon the addition of GRGDSPK (250 μM), suggesting that the observed detachment parameters are specific for fibronectin and involve integrins expressed in mesendodermal progenitors [2]. Reduced cleavage, which is a dose-dependent effect of GRGDSPK (containing RGD, 1.5 mM, 1.0 mM, and 0.5 mM) and RGD-modified peptides, prevents sperm from fertilizing bovine oocytes [3].
In vitro, GRGDSPK (250 uM) effectively blocks integrin-fibronectin binding and significantly increases the average size of wild-type cell aggregates. At 10-50 uM for 4 days, it dramatically alters bone morphology, disrupting osteoblast and mineralized matrix organization. It dose-dependently inhibits mineralization in rat parietal bone organ cultures. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, GRGDSPK is used to study the role of integrins in bone formation and resorption. As a competitive integrin inhibitor, it modulates cell-matrix interactions in vivo. Specific in vivo efficacy data are limited, as the compound is primarily used as a research tool in ex vivo and in vitro assays.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro integrin binding assays for GRGDSPK are performed using purified integrin proteins or cell surface integrins. The compound is incubated with integrin-coated plates or integrin-expressing cells in the presence of labeled fibronectin or other RGD-containing ligands. Binding inhibition is measured by ELISA or fluorescence-based methods. IC50 values are determined from competition curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for GRGDSPK are conducted using various cell types that express integrins, such as fibroblasts, osteoblasts, or mesendodermal progenitors. Cells are treated with GRGDSPK (10-250 uM) for 1-4 days. Cell adhesion is assessed by measuring attached cells after washing. Cell migration is evaluated by scratch or Transwell assays. Integrin signaling is assessed by Western blot for FAK or other downstream effectors.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for GRGDSPK are conducted in rat models to study bone formation and resorption. Parietal bones from 18-day-old rat embryos are isolated and cultured with GRGDSPK (10-50 uM) for 4 days. Mineralization is assessed by calcium content measurement and histomorphometric analysis of bone area.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of GRGDSPK are not extensively characterized, as it is a research peptide used primarily in in vitro assays. The compound has a molecular weight of 715.76 and formula C28H49N11O11. It is a solid stored at -20degC. As a peptide, it is susceptible to proteolytic degradation and has limited oral bioavailability.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for GRGDSPK are limited. As a peptide that inhibits integrin-mediated adhesion, it is generally considered non-toxic at concentrations used in research (10-250 uM). Standard laboratory safety precautions apply. The compound is for research use only.
