Product Description
PCSK9-IN-12 is a heteroaryl compound. PCSK9-IN-12 has binding affinity for PCSK9 with a Kd of <200 nM. PCSK9-IN-12 may be utilized to study cholesterol metabolism.
PCSK9-IN-12 (also known as AZD0780 or Laroprovstat) is an orally active, small-molecule PCSK9 inhibitor with high affinity (Kd < 200 nM). It binds to a specific pocket in the C-terminal domain of PCSK9 without affecting the PCSK9-LDL receptor interaction. Instead, it inhibits lysosomal trafficking of PCSK9-LDLR complexes, preventing PCSK9-induced LDLR degradation and lowering LDL cholesterol.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
PCSK9 (C-terminal domain, Kd < 200 nM). PCSK9-IN-12 is a heteroaryl compound that binds to a distinct pocket in the PCSK9 C-terminal domain, blocking lysosomal trafficking of PCSK9-LDLR complexes.
ln Vitro
Compound 458B, or PCSK9-IN-12, exhibits affinity for PCSK9 with a Kd value of less than 200 nM[1].
In cell-free binding assays, PCSK9-IN-12 binds to recombinant PCSK9 protein with high affinity (Kd < 200 nM). It does not disrupt the interaction between PCSK9 and LDLR. Instead, it inhibits the trafficking of PCSK9-LDLR complexes to lysosomes, preventing LDLR degradation and thereby increasing LDLR surface expression.
ln Vivo
In animal studies, PCSK9-IN-12 is orally active and effectively lowers LDL cholesterol levels in hyperlipidemic animal models. By preventing PCSK9-induced LDLR degradation, it increases LDL receptor levels on hepatocytes, leading to enhanced clearance of LDL cholesterol from the bloodstream and reducing atherosclerotic plaque burden.
Enzyme Assay
For binding assays (non-cellular), recombinant PCSK9 protein is immobilized on a sensor chip or in a microplate. Varying concentrations of PCSK9-IN-12 (1-1000 nM) are added, and binding affinity (Kd) is measured using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). For mechanism studies, PCSK9-LDLR complex formation can be assessed by co-immunoprecipitation.
Cell Assay
For cellular assays, hepatocytes (primary or HepG2 cells) are treated with PCSK9 (to induce LDLR degradation) and PCSK9-IN-12 (0.1-10 microM) for 6-24 hours. LDLR protein levels are quantified by Western blot or flow cytometry. LDL uptake is measured by incubating cells with fluorescently labeled LDL (Dil-LDL) followed by fluorescence detection.
Animal Protocol
PCSK9-IN-12 is administered orally to animal models (e.g., hyperlipidemic mice or non-human primates). Doses typically range from 1-30 mg/kg daily. Blood samples are collected to measure plasma LDL cholesterol levels (enzymatic assay) and PCSK9 levels (ELISA). Liver tissue is harvested at sacrifice to assess LDLR protein levels and PCSK9-LDLR complex trafficking by immunofluorescence or subcellular fractionation.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
PCSK9-IN-12 is orally bioavailable with good exposure. Pharmacokinetic studies in preclinical species have demonstrated that it binds to PCSK9 with high affinity (Kd < 200 nM) and has a favorable half-life supporting once-daily oral dosing. Detailed human PK data are available from clinical trials. Preclinical ADME profiles are consistent with oral drug development.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Preclinical toxicology studies for PCSK9-IN-12 are likely completed as part of clinical development, though specific data are not widely published. As a research compound, it should be handled with standard laboratory precautions. Clinical safety data are expected from ongoing development programs for hypercholesterolemia.

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)
