| Targets |
GSK726701A targets the prostaglandin E2 receptor 4 (EP4), a G protein-coupled receptor involved in inflammation and pain signaling. As a partial agonist, it binds to and activates the EP4 receptor with submaximal efficacy. Its high selectivity for EP4 over EP1-3 receptors makes it a valuable tool for studying EP4-mediated signaling.

| ln Vitro |
GSK726701A exhibits no discernible activity against a wider variety of targets and is extremely selective (>100-fold) against a panel of additional prostaglandin receptors (EP1-3, DP1, FP, IP, TP). In a human whole blood (HWB) experiment, it showed EP4 agonist action with equal potency and intrinsic activity (pEC50=8.2), blocking LPS-mediated TNFα production [1].
In vitro, GSK726701A acts as a partial agonist of the EP4 receptor with a pEC₅₀ of 7.4. It shows high selectivity (>100-fold) against a set of other prostaglandin receptors (EP1-3). The compound's activity is assessed using receptor binding and functional assays to measure its potency and efficacy at the EP4 receptor. |
| ln Vivo |
There is strong pharmacokinetic evidence for GSK726701A in rats, dogs, and monkeys. Animal models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain are highly responsive to GSK726701A. At a dose of 3 mg/kg, which is comparable to the clinical gold standard of 30 mg/kg gabapentin, GSK726701A totally reverses mechanical allodynia caused by CCI. In the FCA acute inflammatory pain rat model, GSK726701A has an ED50 of 0.2 mg/kg[1].
In vivo, GSK726701A exhibits robust efficacy in various animal models for both inflammatory and neuropathic pain. It demonstrates time-dependent mechanical allodynia at a dosage of 3 mg/kg, matching the efficacy of gabapentin administered at 30 mg/kg. These results suggest potent analgesic activity in preclinical pain models. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for GSK726701A are performed using membrane preparations expressing human EP4 and other prostaglandin receptors. Radioligand competition binding assays are used to measure the compound's affinity and selectivity for EP4. Functional assays measure EP4-mediated cAMP accumulation to determine the compound's partial agonist activity and pEC₅₀.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for GSK726701A are performed using cells expressing human EP4 receptors. Cells are treated with the compound, and cAMP accumulation is measured using ELISA or HTRF assays. The pEC₅₀ value (7.4) is calculated from concentration-response curves. Selectivity is assessed by testing the compound against other prostaglandin receptors (EP1-3).
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for GSK726701A are conducted in rodent models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. A typical protocol involves administration of the compound (e.g., 3 mg/kg) to rats or mice, followed by assessment of mechanical allodynia using von Frey filaments. Efficacy is compared to reference compounds such as gabapentin (30 mg/kg).

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.90 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
