In Vivo

Telcagepant (MK-0974) (i.v. bolus, 1 mg/kg) demonstrates that the efficacy of this antagonist is time-dependent and correlated with plasma levels[1]. The pharmacokinetics of Telcagepant (MK-0974) remains linear across 0.5-10 mg/kg intravenous dose in monkeys, but the oral area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) increase (5-30 mg/kg) is 15-fold over dose-proportional[3].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 3 mg/mL (5.30 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 3 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (30.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 3 mg/mL (5.30 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 3 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (30.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Cell Assay
[1]

HEK293 cells stably transfected with CLR/RAMP1 are plated in complete growth medium at 85,000 cells/well in 96-well poly-D-lysine-coated plates and cultured for 19 h before assay. Cells are washed with PBS and then incubated with inhibitor in the presence or absence of 50% human serum for 30 min at 37°C and 95% humidity in Cellgro Complete Serum-Free/Low-Protein medium with L-glutamine and 1 g/L bovine serum albumin. Isobutylmethylxanthine is added to the cells at a concentration of 300 μM and incubated for 30 min at 37°C. Human α-CGRP is added to the cells at a concentration of 0.3 nM and allowed to incubate at 37°C for 5 min. After α-CGRP stimulation, the cells are washed with PBS and processed for cAMP determination using the two-stage assay procedure according to the manufacturer's recommended protocol. Dose-response curves are plotted, and IC50 values are determined.

Animal Administration
[1]

Monkeys: Rhesus monkeys (male and female) weighing between 4 and 10 kg are used. The right saphenous vein is cannulated for intravenous drug delivery, and blood samples are obtained from the left saphenous artery. Four rubber O-rings (8 mm inner diameter) are placed on the ventral side of the forearm without directly being positioned over a visible vessel.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
