Product Description
PKRA83 (PKRA7) is a potent prokinetic (PK2) antagonist that competes for the binding of PK2 to its receptors PKR1 and PKR2. PKRA83 effectively inhibits the PK2 receptor, with IC50s of 5.0 nM and 8.2 nM for PKR1 and PKR2, respectively. PKRA83 has anticancer, antiarthritic, and antiangiogenic activities. PKRA83 can penetrate the BBB (blood-brain barrier).
PKRA-83 (also known as PKRA7) is a potent, small-molecule antagonist of prokineticin 2 (PK2) receptors, specifically PKR1 and PKR2. It is a valuable research tool for studying the prokineticin system, which is involved in angiogenesis, inflammation, neuroprotection, and cancer progression.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
PKRA-83 potently targets prokineticin receptors PKR1 and PKR2, antagonizing the binding of prokineticin 2 (PK2). It shows high affinity for both receptors, with IC50 values of 5.0 nM for PKR1 and 8.2 nM for PKR2. It can also penetrate the blood-brain barrier.
ln Vitro
In vitro, microvascular endothelial cells' PK2-induced branching is efficiently inhibited by PKRA83 (1 µg/mL) [1]. The neuroprotective effect of rPK2 in dopaminergic N27 cells is blocked by PKRA83 (2 μM, 24 hours) [3]. RPK2 shields N27 cell channels from MPP+-induced dopaminergic neuronal cell death.
PKRA-83 effectively antagonizes PK2 receptors. At 1 ug/mL, it reduces PK2-induced microvascular endothelial cell branching. At 2 uM (24 h), it blocks the neuroprotective action of recombinant PK2 in dopaminergic N27 cells. It exhibits anticancer, anti-angiogenic, and anti-arthritis activities in vitro and in vivo.
ln Vivo
In xenograft tumor models of astroblastoma, PKRA83 (20 mg/kg; i.p.) exhibits anti-activity [1]. 15 mg/kg of PKRA83 administered intraperitoneally once daily for two weeks inhibits
PKRA-83 demonstrates robust in vivo activity. At 20 mg/kg (IP), it shows anti-tumor activity in glioblastoma xenograft models. At 15 mg/kg (IP, daily for 2 weeks), it inhibits arthritis in a mouse model of collagen-induced arthritis. It can also effectively reduce PK2-induced microvascular branching in vivo.
Enzyme Assay
The antagonist activity of PKRA-83 is measured using a competitive binding assay. Radiolabeled PK2 is incubated with recombinant PKR1 or PKR2 in the presence of varying concentrations of PKRA-83. The amount of bound label is measured after washing. The IC50 values (5.0 nM and 8.2 nM) are calculated from the competition curves.
Cell Assay
Human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs) are cultured and treated with PK2 in the presence or absence of PKRA-83 (1 ug/mL). Endothelial cell branching and tube formation are assessed under a microscope. For neuroprotection studies, dopaminergic N27 cells are pre-treated with PKRA-83 (2 uM, 24 h) followed by MPP+ and rPK2. Cell viability is assessed by MTT assay.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: glioblastoma (D456MG glioma cells) nu/nu mouse xenograft tumor model [1]
Doses: 20 mg/kg
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection, daily
Experimental Results: diminished tumor growth rate and tumor weight. The relative blood vessel density diminished and the area of tumor necrosis increased.

Animal/Disease Models: collagen-induced arthritis in mice [2]
Doses: 15 mg/kg
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection, one time/day for 2 weeks
Experimental Results: demonstrated less infiltration of inflammatory cells in the joints and thickening of the synovium ( histological evaluation). Reduces IL-1β and 1 L-6 gene expression levels in joints.
For anti-tumor studies, glioblastoma cells are implanted subcutaneously into immunodeficient mice. PKRA-83 (20 mg/kg) is administered by intraperitoneal injection. Tumor volumes are measured regularly. For anti-arthritis studies, collagen-induced arthritis is induced in mice. PKRA-83 (15 mg/kg, IP, daily for 14 days) is administered, and clinical arthritis scores are assessed.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Detailed PK parameters for PKRA-83 are not extensively documented. The compound has a molecular weight of 505.02 g/mol and is soluble in DMSO (25 mg/mL). It can penetrate the blood-brain barrier, which is relevant for neuroprotection studies. Comprehensive ADME data are not publicly reported.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Detailed toxicological data for PKRA-83 are not extensively documented. As a research compound, comprehensive acute and sub-chronic toxicity studies have not been publicly reported. In animal efficacy studies, the compound appears well tolerated at the doses used (15-20 mg/kg IP).
