Product Description

IPSU is a novel, potent, selective, orally bioavailable and brain penetrant orexin receptor (OX2R) antagonist with potential to be used for insomnia. It inhibits OX2R with a pKi of 7.85. IPSU binds quickly and reaches equilibrium in assays for binding and/or functionality very quickly. In general, IPSU has a slow rate of equilibrium convergence and a tendency to be relatively unselective in non-equilibrium situations. Every ligand exhibits a selectivity profile when equilibrium is reached, which differs from the non-equilibrium state. The 'dual' antagonists tested have slow kinetics, which implies that the duration of in vitro receptor occupancy might be longer than anticipated. This raises concerns about the accuracy of pharmacokinetic studies measuring these antagonists' brain or plasma levels as indicators of receptor occupancy in vivo.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
OX2R ( pKi = 7.85 ); OX1R ( pKi = 6.29 )
ln Vitro
The development of medications to treat insomnia is attracted to orexin receptor antagonists as potential targets. IPSU exhibits rapid binding and rapid equilibrium in binding and/or functional assays [2].
ln Vivo
IPSU exhibits high maximal blood exposure, low blood clearance, and high AUC following oral dosage. It displays favorable brain penetration and an acceptable absolute oral bioavailability as well as a brain/blood concentration ratio. When administered to mice during their active phase (with their lights off), IPSU results in increased sleep.This is mainly because it increases NREM sleep. IPSU exhibits a rapid onset of action, with a discernible rise in the overall amount of time spent sleeping in the hour following dosage. After the effect wears off, which is about 4-5 hours, each hour of sleep is the same as it is on a vehicle day [1].
Enzyme Assay
One concentration of radioligand and six concentrations of competitors (unlabeled ligands such as BBAC, almorexant, SB-649868, suvorexant, filorexant, or IPSU) are used in competition experiments. Membranes (150 μL/well) are filled to capacity with 4.6 nM [3H]-BBAC and different concentrations of unlabeled ligand (0.1 nM–10 μM) in 50 μL/well of assay buffer, for a total volume of 250 μL/well. At room temperature, the amount of [3H]-BBAC bound to receptors is measured at various time intervals (from 15 min to 4 h), and the process is concluded by liquid scintillation counting and fast vacuum filtration[2].
Animal Protocol
Mice: C57Bl/6 mice that are allowed to roam freely and have permanent electrode implantations are accustomed to the experiment boxes and have unlimited access to food and drink. Just before lights out and recording begins, the test compounds (IPSU) or vehicle are given one at a time as a suspension in 0.5% methylcellulose. Infrared sensors installed in the box's roof record movement. To categorize 10 s epochs into wake, NREM sleep, and REM sleep, EEG/EMG signals and motility data are utilized. By applying and recording the vehicle the day before compound (IPSU) dosing, each animal acted as its own control[1].

*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.
