Product Description
LY2608204, an investigational drug, is a novel and potent activator of glucokinase (GK) with EC50 of 42 nM. It activates glucokinase (GK) and has shown the novel and potent stimulant of glucokinase (GK) with the EC50 value of 42nM at lower glucose concentrations. In addition, LY2608204 has been reported to activate glucose metabolism with the EC50 value of 579nM in rat insulinoma INS1-E cell lines. Apart from these, LY2608204 has been revealed to lower plasma glucose in a dose-dependent fashion at the levels of fasted and postprandial. LY-2608204 entered clinical trials in 2010 for treat Patients With Type 2 Diabetes.
is an amide derivative of phenylacetic acid and glucokinase activator. It has been reported that short-term dosing of LY-2608204 reduces blood glucose in T2D patients, and it is still in clinical trial phase (clinicalTrials.gov NCT01247363). [1]

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Glucokinase activator. [1]
LY2608204 targets glucokinase (GK), a key enzyme in glucose metabolism that acts as a glucose sensor in pancreatic β-cells and hepatocytes. It activates glucokinase with an EC50 of 42 nM, enhancing the enzyme's affinity for glucose and increasing glucose phosphorylation. This activation leads to increased insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and enhanced glycogen synthesis in the liver. LY2608204 also stimulates glucose metabolism in rat insulinoma INS1-E cells with an EC50 of 579 nM. As a dual-acting glucokinase activator, LY2608204 represents a promising approach for type 2 diabetes therapy by targeting both pancreatic and hepatic glucokinase.
ln Vitro
LY2608204 activates glucokinase (GK) with EC50 of 42 nM at 10 mM glucose with a concentration dependent manner at lower glucose concentrations. LY2608204 also stimulates glucose metabolism in rat insulinoma INS1-E cells with EC50 of 579 NM.
In vitro studies have demonstrated that LY2608204 activates glucokinase with an EC50 of 42 nM at 10 mM glucose, with a concentration-dependent manner at lower glucose concentrations. It also stimulates glucose metabolism in rat insulinoma INS1-E cells with an EC50 of 579 nM. The compound's activity is glucose-dependent, meaning it is more potent at higher glucose concentrations, which is a desirable feature for an antidiabetic agent as it reduces the risk of hypoglycemia. LY2608204 has been shown to decrease plasma glucose in vitro models, confirming its efficacy as a glucokinase activator. These in vitro findings support the compound's potential as a therapeutic agent for type 2 diabetes.
ln Vivo
LY2608204 decreases plasma glucose in a dose-dependent manner at both fasted and postprandial glucose levels. A maximal lowering of glucose AUC versus the untreated control group is observed with the high dose (30 mg/kg) and represents a 42% decrease. Interpolation of the data show that a 20% glucose AUC decrease occurs at an average LY2608204 concentration of 99 ng/mL (179 nM) in plasma, corresponding to a 6.9 mg/kg LY2608204 dose. The in vivo blood brain barrier permeability of LY2608204 results in a mean brain/plasma ratio of 0.17 five minutes post-dose with a mean total brain level of 0.539 nmol/g.
In vivo studies have demonstrated that LY2608204 decreases plasma glucose in a dose-dependent manner at both fasted and postprandial glucose levels. The compound has shown efficacy in animal models of diabetes, with a 20% glucose AUC decrease occurring at a plasma concentration of 99 ng/mL (179 nM), corresponding to a 6.9 mg/kg dose. LY2608204 also exhibits blood-brain barrier permeability, with a mean brain/plasma ratio of 0.17 five minutes post-dose and a mean total brain level of 0.539 nmol/g. The compound has been evaluated in clinical trials for safety and tolerability in patients with type 2 diabetes. These in vivo findings support the potential of LY2608204 as an oral antidiabetic agent.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cellular enzyme assays for LY2608204 typically involve measuring glucokinase activity in the presence of the compound using purified recombinant glucokinase enzyme. The assay is performed in a buffer system containing glucose, ATP, and a coupling enzyme system to detect glucose-6-phosphate production. LY2608204 is tested at various concentrations to determine its EC50 value for glucokinase activation. The assay is typically conducted at a fixed glucose concentration (e.g., 10 mM) to evaluate the compound's potency. Dose-response curves are generated, and EC50 values are calculated using non-linear regression analysis. These assays may also be performed at varying glucose concentrations to assess the glucose-dependent nature of the activation. The specificity of LY2608204 for glucokinase over other hexokinases can be evaluated using similar assays with different enzyme isoforms.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for LY2608204 typically use rat insulinoma INS1-E cells or other pancreatic β-cell lines to assess glucose metabolism and insulin secretion. Cells are cultured in appropriate media and treated with LY2608204 at various concentrations for defined periods. Glucose metabolism is measured by assessing glucose uptake, glucose phosphorylation, or lactate production. Insulin secretion is measured using ELISA or similar immunoassays. The EC50 for stimulation of glucose metabolism in INS1-E cells is 579 nM. Cytotoxicity is assessed using MTT or similar assays to ensure that the observed effects are not due to cell death. LY2608204 is typically dissolved in DMSO and diluted in culture medium, with DMSO controls included to account for solvent effects.
Animal Protocol
Suspended in a 1:1 mixture of solutol/ethanol in a bath sonicator (10% of total volume). The obtained suspension is then diluted with 9 volumes of 10% aqueous solutol solution; 1, 3, 6, 10, 20 and 30 mg/kg; Orally, rats are given a 2 g/kg oral glucose bolus 2 hours after LY2608204 administration. Male Wistar rats at a weight of 225-250 g
In vivo animal studies for LY2608204 typically involve rodent models of diabetes, such as db/db mice or streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Animals are administered LY2608204 orally at various doses, and blood glucose levels are measured at multiple time points post-administration. Fasted and postprandial glucose levels are assessed to evaluate the compound's efficacy in both states. Dose-response studies are conducted to determine the minimum effective dose and the maximal efficacy. Pharmacokinetic parameters such as plasma concentration, half-life, and brain penetration are also evaluated. In some studies, glucose tolerance tests are performed to assess the compound's effect on glucose excursion after an oral glucose challenge. Body weight and food intake are monitored throughout the study to assess tolerability.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic studies of LY2608204 have shown that it is orally bioavailable and exhibits dose-dependent plasma exposure. A 20% glucose AUC decrease occurs at a plasma concentration of 99 ng/mL (179 nM), corresponding to a 6.9 mg/kg dose. LY2608204 exhibits blood-brain barrier permeability with a mean brain/plasma ratio of 0.17 five minutes post-dose and a mean total brain level of 0.539 nmol/g. The compound is soluble in DMSO and ethanol but insoluble in water. Its molecular weight is 559.8 g/mol. LY2608204 has been evaluated in clinical trials for safety and tolerability in patients with type 2 diabetes. Further detailed PK parameters such as half-life, volume of distribution, and clearance are available in the clinical study reports.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for LY2608204 are primarily derived from clinical trials in patients with type 2 diabetes, where safety and tolerability were evaluated. The compound has been shown to be generally well-tolerated in clinical studies, though specific toxicological findings are not detailed in publicly available sources. Preclinical toxicology studies likely included standard assessments of acute and chronic toxicity, genotoxicity, and reproductive toxicity as part of the drug development program. The compound's mechanism of action as a glucokinase activator carries a potential risk of hypoglycemia, which is a key safety concern for this class of drugs. However, the glucose-dependent nature of glucokinase activation by LY2608204 may mitigate this risk. Research-grade LY2608204 is intended for laboratory use only and is not for human consumption.
