Product Description
Peptide YY (PYY) (3-36), porcine is a gastrointestinal hormone peptide that works as a Y2 receptor agonist (activator) and can reduce appetite.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Y2 receptor (selective agonist) [1]
ln Vitro
Peptide YY (PYY) (3-36), a porcine Y2 receptor agonist generated by dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) cleavage of the first two amino acids at the N-terminus of PYY1-36, might lower food intake Quantity[1].
PYY(3-36) (2 nmol) was incubated with 200 ng of recombinant human neprilysin (NEP) for 60 minutes, resulting in 7 ± 1% degradation. [1]
PYY(3-36) (2 nmol) was incubated with 200 ng of recombinant human meprin β-subunit for 30 minutes, resulting in 53 ± 5% degradation. [1]
Incubation of PYY(3-36) (2 nmol) with 1.25 mg/ml rat kidney brush border (KBB) membranes for 30 minutes resulted in approximately 82% degradation. The degradation was dose- and time-dependent. [1]
Mass spectrometry analysis showed that meprin β cleaved PYY(3-36) at multiple sites: Glu10-Asp11, Asp11-Ala12, and Ala12-Ser13, generating fragments PYY(11-36), PYY(12-36), and PYY(13-36). [1]
KBB membranes cleaved PYY(3-36) at sites including Glu10-Asp11 and Pro14-Glu15, generating fragments PYY(11-36) and PYY(15-36). [1]
The NEP inhibitor phosphoramidon (10 nmol) attenuated NEP-induced degradation of PYY(3-36) by 95%. Phosphoramidon (100 nmol) attenuated KBB-induced degradation by 36%. [1]
The meprin inhibitor actinonin (10 nmol) attenuated meprin β-induced degradation of PYY(3-36) by 96%. Actinonin (100 nmol) completely prevented KBB-induced degradation of PYY(3-36). [1]
ln Vivo
Actinomycin considerably increased the duration of PYY3-36's anorexic effects in mice (50 nmol/kg) and preserved greater PYY3-36 plasma levels in comparison to PYY3-36 therapy alone [1].
In overnight-fasted male C57/BL6 mice, a single subcutaneous (sc) injection of PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg) significantly reduced food intake at 0-1 and 1-2 hours post-injection compared to saline control. [1]
When co-administered subcutaneously with the meprin inhibitor actinonin (20 mg/kg, intraperitoneal pretreatment), PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg) significantly reduced food intake not only at 0-1 and 1-2 hours, but also at 2-3 and 2-4 hours post-injection, prolonging its anorectic effect. [1]
Cumulative food intake over 0-6 hours was significantly reduced by PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg) alone. The reduction was significantly greater when PYY(3-36) was co-administered with actinonin (40 mg/kg). [1]
In ad libitum fed mice during the dark phase, a lower dose of PYY(3-36) (5 nmol/kg, sc) co-administered with actinonin (40 mg/kg, ip) significantly reduced food intake at 0-1 hour post-injection. [1]
In the same dark phase fed model, PYY(3-36) (5 nmol/kg, sc) co-administered with the NEP inhibitor phosphoramidon (0.75 mg/kg, ip) significantly reduced cumulative food intake over 0-4 hours post-injection. [1]
Plasma levels of PYY-immunoreactivity (PYY-IR) were measured after sc injection of PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg) in fasted mice. Co-administration with actinonin (20 mg/kg, ip) resulted in significantly higher circulating PYY-IR levels at 20 and 60 minutes post-injection compared to PYY(3-36) alone. [1]
Enzyme Assay
Degradation assay with recombinant enzymes: PYY(3-36) (2 nmol) was incubated with or without 200 ng of recombinant human NEP or 200 ng of recombinant human meprin β-subunit in a digest buffer (50 mmol/L Tris-HCl, 50 mmol/L NaCl, pH 7.5) in a total volume of 120 µL at 37°C. For inhibitor studies, 10 nmol of phosphoramidon (NEP inhibitor) or actinonin (meprin inhibitor) was included in the reaction mixture. The reaction was terminated at specified time points by adding 10 µL of 10% trifluoroacetic acid. Samples were centrifuged, and the supernatant was analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC and MALDI-ToF mass spectrometry to quantify degradation and identify cleavage products. [1]
Degradation assay with kidney brush border membranes: Rat kidney brush border (KBB) membranes were prepared by homogenization and centrifugation. PYY(3-36) (2 nmol) was incubated with KBB membranes (1.25 mg/mL final concentration) in a digest buffer (300 mmol/L mannitol in 12 mmol/L HEPES, pH 7.4) at 37°C for 30 minutes. For inhibitor studies, 100 nmol of phosphoramidon or actinonin was included. After incubation, samples were centrifuged, and the supernatant was analyzed by HPLC and mass spectrometry. [1]
Animal Protocol
Effect of phosphoramidon on anorectic effect in fasted mice: Adult male C57/BL6 mice (20-25 g) were overnight fasted. They were divided into four groups receiving subcutaneous (sc) injections (max volume 100 µL): 1) Saline (n=10), 2) Phosphoramidon (10 mg/kg) (n=10), 3) PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg in saline) (n=10), 4) PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg) + Phosphoramidon (10 mg/kg). Body weight and food intake were measured at specified intervals up to 24 hours. [1]
Effect of actinonin on anorectic effect in fasted mice: Overnight-fasted mice were divided into six groups. They first received an intraperitoneal (ip) injection (max volume 100 µL) of vehicle (20% ethanol, 80% saline) or actinonin (20 or 40 mg/kg in vehicle). Fifteen minutes later, they received a sc injection (max volume 100 µL) of saline or PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg in saline). Groups: 1) Vehicle ip + Saline sc (n=11), 2) Actinonin (20 mg/kg) ip + Saline sc (n=10), 3) Actinonin (40 mg/kg) ip + Saline sc (n=9), 4) Vehicle ip + PYY(3-36) sc (n=9), 5) Actinonin (20 mg/kg) ip + PYY(3-36) sc (n=9), 6) Actinonin (40 mg/kg) ip + PYY(3-36) sc (n=8). Food intake and body weight were monitored. [1]
Effect of inhibitors in fed mice during dark phase: Mice with ad libitum access to food were studied during their dark (active) phase. They were divided into six groups receiving injections: 1) Vehicle ip + Saline sc (n=8), 2) Vehicle ip + PYY(3-36) (5 nmol/kg) sc (n=8), 3) Phosphoramidon (0.75 mg/kg in vehicle) ip + PYY(3-36) (5 nmol/kg) sc (n=8), 4) Phosphoramidon ip + Saline sc (n=8), 5) Actinonin (40 mg/kg in vehicle) ip + PYY(3-36) (5 nmol/kg) sc (n=8), 6) Actinonin ip + Saline sc (n=8). Food intake was measured. [1]
Pharmacokinetic study with actinonin: Overnight-fasted mice were divided into groups receiving: 1) Actinonin (20 mg/kg, ip) + Saline sc, 2) Vehicle ip + PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg, sc), 3) Actinonin (20 mg/kg, ip) + PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg, sc). Mice were culled at 20, 60, and 90 minutes after the sc injection. Blood was collected via cardiac puncture, plasma separated, and PYY-immunoreactivity levels measured by radioimmunoassay. [1]
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
PYY(3-36) can be rapidly degraded in vitro by the metalloendopeptidase meprin β, and then by enkephalinase (NEP). [1] In vivo, after subcutaneous injection of PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg) in mice, the plasma PYY immunoreactivity level first reached a peak and then decreased. Compared with injection of PYY(3-36) alone, simultaneous injection of the meprin inhibitor actinomycin (20 mg/kg) significantly increased the plasma PYY immunoreactivity level at 20 minutes and 60 minutes after injection, indicating that inhibiting degradation can prolong the circulating level. [1]
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The literature indicates that supraphysiological levels of PYY (3-36) can cause nausea in humans. [1]

Additional Infomation
Peptide YY(3-36) is a synthetic human peptide YY 3-36 that is currently being evaluated for its efficacy in treating obesity. It can reduce appetite and increase satiety in obese patients.
Drug indications
It has been studied for the treatment of metabolic diseases and obesity.
Mechanism of action
PYY 3-36 acts through the presynaptic Y2 receptor in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) of the hypothalamus. It reduces the release of neuropeptide Y (NPY) from the resting hypothalamic explant, thereby reducing food intake.
PYY(3-36) is an intestinal hormone composed of 36 amino acids that is released by L cells in the distal intestine after meals. It is generated by cleaving the first two N-terminal amino acids of PYY(1-36) by dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV). [1]
PYY is a selective Y2 receptor agonist that reduces food intake through central Y2 receptors. [1]
Obese individuals are sensitive to its anorexia, but the increase in postprandial PYY levels is relatively small. Bariatric surgery can increase circulating PYY levels. [1]
Due to its short circulating half-life, its application as an anti-obesity therapy is limited. [1]
This study suggests that inhibiting its degradation by meprin β (e.g., using inhibitors such as actinomycin) or designing analogs resistant to meprin cleavage may be effective strategies for developing anti-obesity therapies. [1]
