Product Description
LNSMGQD is a cyclic peptide fragment derived from desmosome corein 1 (amino acids 81-86). It mimics transmembrane interactions and functions as part of the desmosome corein 2 tandem peptide-binding interface. LNSMGQD not only binds to desmosome corein 1 and 3 but also effectively inhibits their homologous transmembrane interactions, while reducing the probability of homologous or heterologous binding between desmosome corein 2 and Dsc2, N-cadherin, and E-cadherin. LNSMGQD can be applied to research on the disease mechanisms of Crohn's disease and pemphigus vulgaris.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
tandem peptide containing LNSMGQD (20 μM; 30 min) selectively enhanced isotype binding of Dsg2 under cell-free conditions and reversed the inhibitory effect of L-tryptophan without affecting E-cadherin binding [1]. A tandem peptide containing LNSMGQD (20 μM; 24 h) prevented TNF-α-induced loss of intercellular adhesion and increased cell permeability in CaCo2 and HCT116 intestinal epithelial cells [1]. A tandem peptide containing LNSMGQD (20 μM; 24 h) blocked the upregulation of pore-forming tight junction protein claudin-2 in CaCo2 intestinal epithelial cells induced by TNF-α and maintained the junctional localization of Dsg2 and claudin-1 [1]. LNSMGQD (200 μM; 24 h) disrupted intercellular adhesion of human keratinocytes HaCaT in a dissociation assay based on dispersants and induced keratin filament contraction [2]. LNSMGQD (200 μM; 30 min) induces phosphorylation of p38 MAPK in human keratinocytes HaCaT[2]. LNSMGQD (40 μM; 1 h) directly interferes with the binding sites involved in homo- and hetero-desmosome core protein 2 interactions, thereby reducing the binding probability without altering the unimolecular dissociation force[3].
ln Vivo
LNSMGQD (200 μmol/L; intradermal injection; single dose) increased phosphorylation of p38 MAPK in the dorsal skin of newborn Balb/c mice [2].
Cell Assay
Immunofluorescence [1]
Cell Types: CaCO2
Tested Concentrations: 20 μM
Incubation Duration: 24 hours
Experimental Results: It prevented the reduction and breakage of Dsg2 and claudin-1 staining at intercellular junctions induced by TNF-α. It maintained their linear and regular positioning along the cell boundary.
Western Blot analysis [2]
Cell Types: HaCaT human keratinocytes
Tested Concentrations: 200 μM
Incubation Duration: 30 minutes
Experimental Results: p38 MAPK phosphorylation level increased to 1.9 ± 0.4 times that of untreated control cells.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models:Balb/c mouse pemphigus vulgaris (newborn, 1.4–1.8 g) [2]
Doses: 200 μmol/L
Route of Administration: Intradermal injection; single dose
Experimental Results: Phosphorylated p38 MAPK levels in the dorsal skin of mice increased to 2.0 ± 0.3 times that of control IgG-injected mice. DSG3 immunostaining fragmentation was detected; no intradermal vesicle formation was observed.

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
