Product Description
Litorin, an amphibian bombesin analogue, is a bombesin receptor agonist (activator). Litorin stimulates smooth muscle contraction, stimulates gastrin, gastric acid, and pancreatic secretion, and inhibits nutrients in in vivo experiments.
Litorin is an amphibian bombesin peptide derivative and a bombesin receptor agonist. It stimulates contraction of smooth muscle, stimulates gastrin, gastric acid, and pancreatic secretion, and suppresses nutrient intake in vivo. Litorin is a peptide research tool for studying bombesin receptor function.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Bombesin receptor. Litorin is a bombesin receptor agonist. The compound activates bombesin receptors to stimulate smooth muscle contraction, gastrin release, gastric acid secretion, and pancreatic secretion.
ln Vitro
99mTc-Litorin was created to image tumors overexpressing the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRP-R) without requiring surgery [1]. [D-Phe1,Leu8,9]With a Ki of 5.1 nM, lexirin prevents 125I-[Tyr4]BN from attaching to mouse Swiss 3T3 cells[2]. With an EC50 of 2.3 nM, ligand promotes the incorporation of 3H-thymidine in mouse Swiss 3T3 cells [2].
Litorin is a bombesin receptor agonist. It stimulates smooth muscle contraction, gastrin secretion, gastric acid secretion, and pancreatic secretion. The peptide shows potent agonistic activity at bombesin receptors.
ln Vivo
In in vivo tests, Litorin promotes smooth muscle contraction, stimulates gastrin, gastric acid, and pancreatic secretion, and inhibits nutrition [2].
Litorin suppresses nutrient intake in vivo. It stimulates smooth muscle contraction, gastrin, gastric acid, and pancreatic secretion in animal models. The peptide has been used to study bombesin receptor physiology and gastrointestinal function. Detailed in vivo efficacy has been reported in gastrointestinal and metabolic studies.
Enzyme Assay
Bombesin receptor binding assay: Membranes from cells expressing bombesin receptors are incubated with varying concentrations of Litorin and a radiolabeled bombesin receptor ligand in binding buffer at room temperature for 60–90 min. Nonspecific binding is determined with excess unlabeled ligand. Bound radioactivity is measured by filtration. Binding affinity (Ki or Kd) is calculated.
Cell Assay
Functional receptor activation assay: Cells expressing bombesin receptors are treated with Litorin at varying concentrations. Receptor-mediated signaling (e.g., intracellular calcium mobilization or inositol phosphate accumulation) is measured. EC50 values for receptor activation are calculated from dose-response curves.
Animal Protocol
Smooth muscle contraction assay: Isolated smooth muscle preparations (e.g., guinea pig ileum or rat stomach strips) are mounted in organ baths and treated with Litorin at varying concentrations. Muscle contraction is measured isotonically or isometrically. The potency of Litorin-induced contraction is calculated.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Litorin has a CAS number of 55749-97-8. It is an amphibian bombesin peptide derivative. The peptide is a bombesin receptor agonist. Comprehensive PK parameters for the peptide remain to be characterized.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No detailed toxicity data has been published. Litorin is for research use only. Standard laboratory safety practices should be followed when handling this peptide. As a bombesin receptor agonist, potential effects on gastrointestinal and metabolic function should be considered.

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
