| Targets |
The primary target of Ogerin is GPR68, a proton-sensing GPCR. It acts as a selective positive allosteric modulator of GPR68 with a pEC50 of 6.83. It also displays inverse agonist and antagonist activity at the A2A receptor (Ki = 220 nM) and weak antagonist activity at the 5-HT2B receptor (Ki = 736 nM). By modulating GPR68, it affects fibrotic and neurological processes.

| ln Vitro |
In PHLFs, agerin (50-150 μM; 72 h) partially reverses and alters the profibrotic fibroblast phenotype generated by TGF-β [1]. Ogerin (50-150 μM; 48 h) partially reverses and alters the profibrotic fibroblast phenotype that TGF-β induces in PHLFs [1]. PHLFs' enhanced TGF-β-induced collagen synthesis is impacted by agerin (50, 100 μM; 72 hours)[1]. In PHLFs, agerin (150 μM; 40 min) stimulates TGF-β-induced collagen synthesis [1]. Ogerin (50 μM; 10 min) causes HEK293 cells that are stably expressing HA-GPR68 to activate PKA and MAP [2].
In vitro, Ogerin is a selective GPR68 PAM with a pEC50 of 6.83. It displays inverse agonist and antagonist activity at the A2A receptor (Ki = 220 nM) and weak antagonist activity at the 5-HT2B receptor (Ki = 736 nM). Its activity at GPR68 is measured using calcium mobilization assays or other functional readouts. |
| ln Vivo |
It has been demonstrated that agerin (10 mg/kg; single dose) supports GPR68's involvement in hippocampal-related memory [2].
In vivo, Ogerin inhibits fear conditioning in mice. It inhibits TGF-β-induced myofibroblast differentiation of fibroblasts from multiple organ systems. These effects suggest potential for treating fibrotic diseases and neurological disorders. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for Ogerin involve radioligand binding studies using cell membranes expressing GPR68, A2A, or 5-HT2B receptors. Competitive binding assays are performed using selective radiolabeled ligands to determine the compound's affinity (Ki) for these receptors. Functional assays (e.g., calcium mobilization, cAMP accumulation) are used to assess its PAM or antagonist activity.

Animal/Disease Models: GPR68 knockout and WT mice [2].
Doses: 10 mg/kg Route of Administration: Single (30 minutes before training) Experimental Results: Recall of fear conditioning was inhibited in wild-type mice, but not in GPR68 knockout mice. In vivo animal studies for Ogerin are conducted in mouse models of fear conditioning to assess its effects on memory and learning. Its effects on fibrotic diseases are studied in models of pulmonary or hepatic fibrosis. Animals are administered the compound orally or intraperitoneally, and behavioral or histological endpoints are measured. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of Ogerin indicate it has a molecular weight of 307.35 and a molecular formula of C17H17N5O. It is soluble in DMSO at 25 mg/mL. The compound is typically stored as a powder at -20°C for up to 3 years. Its bioavailability and other PK parameters would be determined in preclinical studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological information for Ogerin is limited to its use as a research chemical. As a GPCR modulator, it may have effects on various physiological processes. Comprehensive toxicology studies would be required for its use in vivo, including assessments of its effects on cardiovascular, neurological, and fibrotic pathways.
