pEC50: 5.53 (GPR109a)[1]
GPR109 receptor agonist-2 specifically targets GPR109a, a G protein-coupled receptor that is activated by nicotinic acid (niacin) and is a key player in lipid metabolism. GPR109a mediates the anti-lipolytic effects of niacin in adipose tissue and has been implicated in anti-inflammatory pathways. By acting as a selective agonist, this compound is used to study the receptor's physiological and pathophysiological roles. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, GPR109 receptor agonist-2 acts as a selective agonist of GPR109a. Its activity is characterized by its potency, with a pEC50 value of 5.53, which corresponds to an EC50 of approximately 3 μM. This confirms its ability to activate the receptor and its utility as a pharmacological tool for studying GPR109a-mediated signaling pathways.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity data for GPR109 receptor agonist-2 are not extensively detailed in the search results. As a selective GPR109a agonist, it is a valuable tool for studying the role of this receptor in various metabolic and inflammatory conditions. It could be used in animal models to investigate the effects of GPR109a activation on lipid metabolism, inflammation, and other related pathways.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For non-cellular in vitro receptor binding assays, GPR109 receptor agonist-2 is characterized using radioligand binding techniques with membrane preparations from cells expressing the GPR109a receptor. These assays confirm its binding affinity and selectivity for the receptor. Its pEC50 value is a key measure of its potency and is determined in such assays.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, the activity of GPR109 receptor agonist-2 is evaluated in cells expressing GPR109a. A typical functional assay measures the inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation, as GPR109a is a Gi-coupled receptor. The compound's ability to inhibit cAMP production confirms its agonistic activity and is used to calculate its pEC50.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies with GPR109 receptor agonist-2 would typically be conducted in mouse or rat models to study the effects of GPR109a activation. For example, it could be used to investigate the receptor's role in atherosclerosis, inflammation, or metabolic syndrome. The compound can be administered via various routes, including oral or intraperitoneal injection, depending on the study design.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for GPR109 receptor agonist-2 are not extensively documented. As a small-molecule agonist with a molecular weight of 154.17, it is expected to have favorable oral bioavailability. It is soluble in DMSO at 200 mg/mL (1297.27 mM), which facilitates formulation for both in vitro and in vivo studies. Specific parameters such as half-life and clearance are not available.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for GPR109 receptor agonist-2 are limited. As a research compound, it is intended for laboratory use only and not for human therapeutic applications. Its safety profile has not been established for clinical use. At the concentrations used in research, it is generally considered to have low toxicity, but standard laboratory safety practices should always be followed.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 5 mg/mL (32.43 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), Clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD saline and mix well. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 5 mg/mL (32.43 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), Clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL of corn oil and mix well. (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
