Glycoprotein GPⅡb/Ⅲa
Batifiban TFA targets the platelet glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa (integrin alphaIIbbeta3), the primary receptor for fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor on activated platelets. It also blocks the binding of circulating vitronectin to integrin alphaνbeta3, thereby inhibiting platelet aggregation and thrombus formation. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In cell‑free assays, Batifiban TFA selectively binds to purified GPIIb/IIIa with high affinity, blocking the interaction with fibrinogen and vitronectin. The peptide has good water solubility due to its TFA salt form, facilitating its use in a variety of assay systems.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Batifiban TFA inhibits platelet aggregation and reduces thrombus formation in animal models of arterial thrombosis. By blocking the GPIIb/IIIa receptor on activated platelets, it prevents cross‑linking of platelets via fibrinogen, thereby reducing the risk of occlusive thrombus formation.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A standard in vitro receptor binding protocol: Purified human GPIIb/IIIa (integrin alphaIIbbeta3) is immobilised on a 96‑well plate. Batifiban TFA is added at 0.1 nM‑10 uM, followed by biotinylated fibrinogen (1 ug/mL). After washing, bound fibrinogen is detected with streptavidin‑HRP and substrate. IC50 values are calculated from inhibition curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
A general in vitro platelet aggregation assay: Human platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared by centrifugation. Batifiban TFA (0.1‑100 uM) is added to PRP and incubated for 5 min at 37degC. Aggregation is induced by adding ADP (10 uM) or collagen (2 ug/mL) and monitored using a light transmission aggregometer for 5‑10 min. Results are expressed as percentage inhibition of maximal aggregation.
|
| Animal Protocol |
A general in vivo thrombosis model: Male Sprague‑Dawley rats (n=6/group) are administered Batifiban TFA via intravenous bolus (0.1‑3 mg/kg) 10 min before arterial injury. The carotid artery is injured with FeCl3 (15% for 3 min), and blood flow is monitored with a Doppler flow probe for 60 min. Inhibition of thrombosis is determined by the time to occlusion or vessel patency score.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As a cyclic peptide with a disulfide bridge, Batifiban TFA is resistant to proteolytic degradation, offering improved pharmacokinetic properties compared to linear RGD peptides. It is suitable for intravenous administration and has a moderate plasma half‑life. The TFA counterion enhances aqueous solubility for formulation.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Batifiban TFA is a research compound with no approved clinical indications. Toxicology studies are limited; however, GPIIb/IIIa antagonists as a class may increase bleeding risk. Peptide‑based inhibitors generally have favourable safety profiles, but full toxicological characterisation is not available for this analogue.

| Additional Infomation |
Batifiban is a cyclic heptapeptide with the sequence {Mpa}‑Arg‑Gly‑Asp‑Trp‑Pro‑Cys‑NH2, where a disulfide bridge connects Mpa1 and Cys7. It belongs to the class of RGD‑mimetic integrin antagonists and is used in cardiovascular research, particularly for evaluating anti‑thrombotic therapies and integrin‑related signalling in vascular biology.
