GLP-1R ( EC50 = 11.3 μM )
VU0453379 targets the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R), a class B G protein-coupled receptor that plays a key role in glucose homeostasis and has emerging importance in the central nervous system. As a PAM, it binds to an allosteric site distinct from the orthosteric site, enhancing the receptor's response to its endogenous agonist, GLP-1. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, VU0453379 acts as a positive allosteric modulator of GLP-1R with an EC50 of 1.3 μM. Its activity is confirmed in cell-based assays where it potentiates the effects of GLP-1. The compound is highly selective for GLP-1R.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, VU0453379 is a CNS-penetrant compound, meaning it can cross the blood-brain barrier. This property makes it a valuable tool for studying the role of GLP-1R signaling in the brain, which is implicated in neuroprotection, feeding behavior, and cognitive function.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for VU0453379 are performed using membrane preparations expressing the GLP-1 receptor. These assays typically involve radioligand binding techniques to confirm its allosteric binding site and selectivity. Its PAM activity is confirmed through functional assays that measure its ability to potentiate GLP-1-induced responses.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays are performed using cell lines expressing the GLP-1 receptor. Cells are treated with the compound in the presence of a sub-maximal concentration of GLP-1, and receptor activation is measured by quantifying downstream signaling, such as cAMP accumulation. The EC50 of 1.3 μM is calculated from these concentration-response curves.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for VU0453379 are conducted to evaluate its effects in the central nervous system. Due to its CNS-penetrant nature, it can be administered systemically to study its impact on GLP-1R-mediated behaviors, such as food intake, anxiety, or cognition in rodent models.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties include its ability to penetrate the central nervous system. It has a LogP of 3.6 and is soluble in DMSO.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |

| Solubility (In Vitro) |
DMSO: ~100 mg/mL (~230.11 mM)

|---|---|
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.75 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 45% 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 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 + to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.  (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.
