| Targets |
Selepressin selectively targets the vasopressin V1A receptor. As a full agonist, it activates the V1A receptor, leading to vasoconstriction and an increase in blood pressure. Its selectivity for the V1A receptor over other vasopressin receptor subtypes contributes to its specific pharmacological profile.

| ln Vitro |
HLMVEC barrier failure brought on by thrombin or VEGF is ameliorated by SELPRESTIN (100 nM, 48 or 72 hours) [3]. In HLMVEC, selepressin (1-1000 nM, 72 hours) inhibits the loss of cortical actin and VE-cadherin caused by LPS [3]. In HLMVEC, selepressin (100 nM, 48 h) stimulates the production of p53 that protects the barrier [3].
In vitro, Selepressin acts as a selective agonist at the vasopressin V1A receptor. Its binding affinity and functional activity at the V1A receptor have been characterized, demonstrating its potency and selectivity. Detailed in vitro potency data (e.g., EC50) are not provided in the available sources. |
| ln Vivo |
Inhibin (1 μg/kg/min) injected into the left jugular vein for 12 minutes caused a 38.5% increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) in an LPS-induced fluid-resuscitated rabbit endotoxemia model [2]. In sheep suffering from severe sepsis, vascular leakage is prevented by administering selective vasopressin (7 pmol/kg/min, 10 μL/min) intravenously [4].
In vivo, Selepressin is a potent vasopressor, increasing blood pressure through V1A receptor-mediated vasoconstriction. It is being studied for its potential to treat vasodilatory hypotension in septic shock, a condition where vasopressin levels are often insufficient. Its short half-life allows for rapid titration of its effects. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for Selepressin involve measuring its affinity for the vasopressin V1A receptor. Radioligand binding studies using membranes from cells expressing the receptor and a labeled V1A ligand are performed to determine the compound's binding affinity (Ki). Functional activity is assessed by measuring receptor-mediated signaling, such as calcium mobilization or cAMP modulation, in cells expressing the V1A receptor.

| Cell Assay |
Western Blot Analysis[2]
Cell Types: HLMVEC Tested Concentrations: 1, 10, 100, 1000 nM Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours), 48 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Induced p53 expression levels, but only after 48 hrs (hours) of 100 nM treatment. In vitro cellular assays for Selepressin are performed using cell lines expressing the vasopressin V1A receptor. Cells are treated with the compound, and downstream signaling pathways, such as calcium influx or MAPK activation, are measured to quantify the compound's agonistic activity and potency. These assays help confirm its full agonist profile at the V1A receptor. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: LPS-induced fluid resuscitation rabbit endotoxemia model [2].
Doses: 1 μg/kg/min Route of Administration: Left jugular vein infusion over 12 minutes Experimental Results: Mesenteric blood flow (MBF) diminished and mesenteric vascular resistance increased in non-endotoxemic and endotoxemic rabbits. In vivo animal studies for Selepressin are conducted in animal models of septic shock or vasodilatory hypotension. The compound is administered intravenously, and its effects on blood pressure, heart rate, and systemic vascular resistance are measured. Its short half-life and efficacy in restoring hemodynamic stability are evaluated in these models. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Selepressin is a peptide with a short half-life, which is a key feature for its potential use in the intensive care setting where rapid titration of vasopressor effects is required. It is administered intravenously. Its PK profile would include rapid onset and offset of action, allowing for precise hemodynamic control.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for Selepressin are not detailed in publicly available sources. As a peptide, its toxicity profile would be expected to be related to its pharmacological effects (vasoconstriction) and potential off-target effects. Standard preclinical safety assessments would have been conducted as part of its development.
