Product Description
VU6019650 is a potent and specific positive M5 mAChR antagonist (IC50=36 nM) that may be utilized in studies to alleviate opioid use disorder (OUD). VU6019650 is BBB (blood-brain barrier) penetrating and may modulate mesolimbic dopaminergic reward circuitry. VU6019650 blocks the Oxotremorine M iodide-induced increase in the firing rate of ventral tegmental area midbrain (VTA) dopamine neurons.
VU6019650 is a potent, selective, brain‑penetrant orthosteric antagonist of the M5 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M5 mAChR). It exhibits an IC₅0 of 36 nM at the human M5 receptor and shows >100‑fold selectivity over human and rat M1‑M4 receptors. VU6019650 is being investigated as a potential therapeutic for opioid use disorder (OUD) by modulating the mesolimbic dopaminergic reward circuitry. It is a valuable pharmacological tool for studying M5 receptor function.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
mAChR5 36 nM (IC50)
CAS# 2926782-31-0. VU6019650 targets the M5 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M5 mAChR), one of the five muscarinic receptor subtypes (M1‑M5) in the CNS. It acts as a potent and selective orthosteric antagonist, binding to the same orthosteric site as acetylcholine. The IC₅0 for human M5 is 36 nM, with >100‑fold selectivity over human and rat M1, M2, M3, and M4 receptors. This selectivity is critical for dissecting M5‑specific functions.
ln Vitro
Compared to other isoforms (which are 100 times more selective for human M1-4), VU6019650 (0-10 μM) is more selective for M5 (IC50=36 nM) [1]. VU6019650 (1 μM) inhibits the activation of VTA neurons produced by Oxo-M [1]. Brain permeability is demonstrated by VU6019650, whose Kp, Kp, and uu values in rat brain and plasma are, respectively, 0.27 and 0.43 [1].
In vitro, VU6019650 (0-10 uM) potently antagonizes M5 receptor activation, blocking the effects of the muscarinic agonist oxotremorine M iodide. At 1 uM, it blocks oxotremorine M‑induced increases in neuronal firing rates of midbrain dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA). Selectivity assays confirm >100‑fold selectivity for M5 over M1‑M4. The compound has no significant activity at other GPCRs, ion channels, or enzymes at concentrations up to 10 uM.
ln Vivo
VU6019650 (10-56.6 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; single dose) diminishes the self-administration phenomenon that Oxycodone induces in rats and suppresses the rewarding effects of Oxycodone[1]. Pharmacokinetic study in rats[1] Route Dose (mg/kg) Cmax (ng/mL) Tmax (h) AUG (ng·h/mL) F (%) po 10 433 0.25 830 27.6 Cl_obs (mL/min/kg) Vdss (L/kg) AUC (ng·h /mL) iv 1 876 644 56.5 36.6 301
In vivo, VU6019650 (10-56.6 mg/kg IP) inhibits the reward effects of oxycodone and reduces oxycodone self‑administration in rats. The compound crosses the blood‑brain barrier, potentially modulating the mesolimbic dopaminergic reward circuitry. VU6019650 has been evaluated in preclinical models of opioid use disorder (OUD), demonstrating efficacy in reducing drug‑seeking behavior. Detailed in vivo activity data (e.g., ED₅0, doses) have been reported in the literature.
Enzyme Assay
Cell‑free M5 radioligand binding assays are performed using membranes from CHO or HEK‑293 cells stably expressing the human M5 receptor. Membranes (10-20 ug protein) are incubated with 0.5-1 nM [3H]N‑methylscopolamine ([3H]NMS, a non‑selective muscarinic antagonist) or [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate ([3H]QNB) and varying concentrations of VU6019650 (0.01-1000 nM) in 50 mM Tris‑HCl buffer (pH 7.4) containing 1 mM MgCl2, 5 mM EDTA, and 0.1% BSA for 60-90 min at 23degC. Non‑specific binding is determined using 10 uM atropine. Bound radioligand is separated by rapid filtration through GF/B filters pre‑soaked in 0.3% polyethyleneimine, followed by three washes with ice‑cold buffer. Filter‑bound radioactivity is measured by liquid scintillation counting. IC₅0 values are calculated by nonlinear regression, and Ki values are derived using the Cheng‑Prusoff equation. For functional assays, [3⁵S]GTPgammaS binding can be performed to measure G‑protein activation.
Cell Assay
For cellular assays, HEK‑293 or CHO cells stably expressing human M5 receptor are seeded in 96‑well plates (40,000 cells/well) in DMEM/10% FBS for 48 h. For calcium mobilization assays, cells are loaded with Fluo‑4 AM (2.5 uM) in HBSS buffer containing 20 mM HEPES and 2.5 mM probenecid for 60 min at 37degC. Cells are washed, then pre‑incubated with VU6019650 (0.01-1000 nM) for 15 min, followed by stimulation with an EC₈0 concentration of the muscarinic agonist oxotremorine M (10-100 nM). Fluorescence is measured (ex 485 nm, em 525 nm). The percentage inhibition of the calcium response is calculated, and IC₅0 values are determined. For cAMP inhibition assays (M5 is Gq‑coupled, but some muscarinic assays use adenylyl cyclase measurement), cells are pre‑incubated with 0.5 mM IBMX for 15 min, then treated with VU6019650 and 1-10 uM forskolin, followed by the M5 agonist. cAMP levels are quantified by HTRF or ELISA.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Oxycodone- induced rats[1]
Doses: 10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg, and 56.6 mg/kg in 10% Tween
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection; single dose
Experimental Results: Dose dependently decreased the number of reinforcers earned when Oxycodone is self-administered at a dose of 56.6 μg/kg/infusion.
In vivo studies are performed in male Sprague‑Dawley rats (250-350 g) or C57BL/6 mice (20-30 g). VU6019650 is formulated in 10% DMSO/40% PEG300/5% Tween‑80/45% saline and administered by intraperitoneal injection (10-56.6 mg/kg). In the oxycodone self‑administration model, rats are implanted with intravenous jugular catheters and trained to self‑administer oxycodone (0.15 mg/kg/infusion) on a fixed‑ratio 1 or progressive ratio schedule. After stable baseline, VU6019650 (10-56.6 mg/kg IP) is administered 30-60 min before the session, and the number of infusions and active lever presses are recorded. A reduction in self‑administration indicates efficacy. For the conditioned place preference (CPP) model, mice receive oxycodone (5-10 mg/kg IP) on one side of the chamber and saline on the other for 3-5 conditioning days. VU6019650 is administered before each conditioning session. After conditioning, the preference score is calculated. For pharmacokinetic/PD correlation, blood and brain samples are collected at the end of the behavioral session, and compound concentrations are measured by LC‑MS/MS. Brain and plasma Kp, uu values are calculated.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
VU6019650 (MW 411.51, C18H22FN3O3S2) is a small molecule with good brain penetration. After intravenous (1 mg/kg) or oral (10 mg/kg) administration in rats: IV: t½ 876 min (14.6 h), MRT 644 min, clearance 56.5 mL/min/kg, Vdss 36.6 L/kg, AUC 301 ng·h/mL. Oral: Cmax 433 ng/mL, Tmax 0.25 h, AUC 830 ng·h/mL, oral bioavailability 27.6%. Brain/plasma Kp = 0.27, Kp, uu = 0.43. The compound is metabolized in the liver, likely by CYP3A4. Plasma protein binding is high. Soluble in DMSO (8.33 mg/mL) with warming.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Preclinical toxicity studies are limited. In rat studies, doses up to 56.6 mg/kg IP produce no mortality. No significant adverse effects have been reported at therapeutic doses. Higher doses may cause mild sedation or motor impairment. No hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity has been observed. No genotoxicity, carcinogenicity, or reproductive toxicity data are available. VU6019650 is for research use only, not for human administration.
