Product Description
Tecalcet (KRN-568; NPS-R-568; R-568) is a novel, potent, orally bioactive calcimimetic compound/calcium channel agonist that can be potentially used for the treatment of hyperparathyroidism, postmenopausal symptom. It stimulates the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) allosterically and favorably. In rats with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism, NPS R-568 prevents parathyroid hyperplasia. In rats suffering from mild to severe secondary hyperparathyroidism due to diet or renal disease, NPS R-568 reduces plasma PTH. In uremic rats, osteitis fibrosa is stopped or reversed by NPS R-568.
Tecalcet HCl (KRN568; NPS-R568; R568) (CAS#: 177172-49-5) is a potent and selective calcimimetic agent that acts as an agonist of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). It has a molecular formula of C21H22ClF3N2O2·HCl and a molecular weight of 475.3 g/mol. Tecalcet HCl was developed for the treatment of hyperparathyroidism and other disorders of calcium metabolism.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Tecalcet HCl's primary target is the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). As a calcimimetic, it acts as an agonist of the CaSR, mimicking the effect of extracellular calcium. By activating the CaSR, it inhibits the secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH), which leads to a reduction in serum calcium levels. This makes it a potential therapeutic agent for hyperparathyroidism.
ln Vitro
Tecalcet (NPS 568, 0.1–100 μM) increases [Ca2+]i in a stereoselective and concentration-dependent way[3]. Tecalcet (NPS 568, 0.1-100 nM) lowers the EC50 value for extracellular Ca21 to 0.61±0.04 mM by moving the concentration-response curve for extracellular Ca2+ to the left without affecting the maximal response[3].
In vitro, Tecalcet HCl acts as a potent agonist of the calcium-sensing receptor. Its activity is assessed in cell-based assays using cells expressing the CaSR. It has been shown to inhibit PTH secretion in parathyroid cells.
ln Vivo
Tecalcet (1.5 and 15 mg/kg, orally, twice daily for 4 days) inhibits the proliferation of PT cells in rats with renal insufficiency[1].
In vivo, Tecalcet HCl has been studied for its effects on PTH and calcium levels. By activating the CaSR, it reduces PTH secretion, leading to a decrease in serum calcium levels. It has been investigated for the treatment of primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro activity of Tecalcet HCl is assessed using cell-based assays. Cells expressing the calcium-sensing receptor (e.g., HEK293 cells stably transfected with CaSR) are treated with various concentrations of Tecalcet HCl. The activation of the CaSR is assessed by measuring the increase in intracellular calcium using fluorescent dyes such as Fluo-4 or by measuring the activation of downstream signaling pathways (e.g., MAPK). The inhibition of PTH secretion is assessed in parathyroid cells or in cell lines that secrete PTH.
Cell Assay
For cellular assays, HEK293 cells expressing CaSR or parathyroid cells are cultured in appropriate media. Cells are treated with various concentrations of Tecalcet HCl (typically ranging from 0.1 nM to 10 µM) for different time periods. Intracellular calcium levels are measured using a fluorescence plate reader. PTH secretion is measured by ELISA.
Animal Protocol
10-wk-old Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 310-350 g
1.5 and 15 mg/kg
Orally twice daily for 4 days
In vivo, Tecalcet HCl is typically administered orally to animal models. In studies of hyperparathyroidism, the compound is administered to rats or mice, and blood samples are collected to measure PTH and calcium levels. The efficacy is assessed by the reduction in PTH and serum calcium levels.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Tecalcet HCl is orally bioavailable. Its pharmacokinetic profile has been studied in preclinical models. It is expected to be absorbed after oral administration and to have a reasonable half-life. Its metabolism and excretion would require further investigation.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Tecalcet HCl has been studied in clinical trials for the treatment of hyperparathyroidism. As a calcimimetic, it may have side effects related to its mechanism of action, such as hypocalcemia and gastrointestinal effects. Comprehensive toxicological studies are required to establish its full safety profile.
