Product Description
BRP TFA is a 12-peptide derived from BRINP2 that can cross the blood-brain barrier. BRP TFA induces FOS activation in neuronal cells via the cAMP-PKA-CREB signaling pathway. BRP TFA has appetite-suppressing and anti-obesity effects without causing nausea or adverse reactions. The effects of BRP TFA are independent of the leptin, GLP-1 receptor, and melanocortin 4 receptor pathways. BRP TFA is suitable for obesity-related research.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
BRP (50-100 μg/mL; 0-24 h) TFA can induce potent, sustained and non-desensitized Fos expression in NS-1 rat neurons, with an EC50 value of 33.7 μM at 24 h and 37 μM at 1 h [1]. BRP (50-100 μg/mL; 0-24 h) TFA can induce potent, sustained and non-desensitized Fos expression in mouse Neuro2a neurons, with an EC50 value of 33 μM at 24 h and 27 μM at 1 h, and activate the CREB and ERK1/2 signaling pathways [1]. BRP (100 μg/mL; 0-40 min) TFA can increase the cAMP level in mouse Neuro2a neurons [1]. BRP (100 μg/mL; 15 min) TFA can induce phosphorylation of CREB at Ser133 site, ERK1/2 phosphorylation and PKA substrate phosphorylation in Neuro2a neurons[1].
ln Vivo
BRP (0.5-20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal, intranasal, intraventricular; single-dose) TFA can inhibit food intake in lean male and female C57BL/6J mice in a dose-dependent manner via intraperitoneal, intranasal, or intraventricular injection routes [1]. BRP (5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal; once daily; for 14 days) TFA can reverse diet-induced obesity in male C57BL/6J mice and improve glucose homeostasis by reducing food intake and fat intake [1]. BRP (2 mg/kg; intramuscular; single-dose) TFA can inhibit feeding behavior in male Yucatan miniature pigs without inducing anxiety-like behavior [1].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models:C57BL/6J (8-week-old males; 8-week-old females) [1]
Doses: 0.5-20 mg/kg (intraperitoneal injection, single dose); 10 mg/kg (intravenous injection, single dose); 0.5 mg/kg (intraventricular injection, single dose)
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (single dose); Intravenous injection (single dose); Intraventricular injection (single dose, injected into the lateral ventricle within approximately 30 seconds)
Experimental Results: Intraperitoneal injection of 5 mg/kg potently and rapidly suppressed food intake in lean male mice for up to 3 hours. Intraperitoneal injection of 20 mg/kg almost completely suppressed food intake in lean male mice for up to 3 hours. Intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 mg/kg did not reduce food intake in lean male mice. Intraperitoneal injection of 5 mg/kg suppressed food intake in lean female mice within 3 hours. Intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg/kg suppressed food intake in lean male mice within 3 hours. Intravenous injection of 10 mg/kg suppressed food intake in lean male mice within 3 hours. Intraventricular injection of 0.5 mg/kg suppressed food intake in lean male mice within 3 hours.
Animal/Disease Models:C57BL/6J (6-week diet-induced obese male mice) [1]
Doses: 1-5 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (once daily; 14 days)
Experimental Results: Reduced cumulative food intake and body weight. Improved glucose tolerance and insulin tolerance. Reduced the mass of inguinal white adipose tissue, brown adipose tissue and liver, reduced the volume of adipocytes in inguinal white adipose tissue, reduced ectopic hepatic lipid deposition, and reduced fat mass without affecting lean body mass.

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
g/mol

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
