BL-1249 is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) and a potassium channel activator. BL-1249 potently activates K2P2.1 (TREK-1) and K2P10.1 (TREK-2) with EC50 values of 5.5 μM and 8.0 μM, respectively. BL-1249 extracellular application activates all TREK subfamily members but has no effect on other K2P subfamilies. BL-1249 exhibits more selective for the bladder (EC50 of 1.26 μM) than vascular tissue (EC50 of 21.0 μM).

Description

BL-1249 is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) and a potassium channel activator. BL-1249 potently activates K2P2.1 (TREK-1) and K2P10.1 (TREK-2) with EC50 values of 5.5 μM and 8.0 μM, respectively. BL-1249 extracellular application activates all TREK subfamily members but has no effect on other K2P subfamilies. BL-1249 exhibits more selective for the bladder (EC50 of 1.26 μM) than vascular tissue (EC50 of 21.0 μM)[1][2].

IC50 & Target

EC50: 5.5 μM (TREK-1) and 8.0 μM (TREK-2)[1]

In Vitro

BL-1249 produces a concentration-dependent membrane hyperpolarization of cultured human bladder myocytes, assessed as either a reduction in fluorescence of the voltage-sensitive dye bis-(1,2-dibutylbarbituric acid)trimethine oxonol (EC50 of 1.26 μM) or by direct electrophysiological measurement EC50 of 1.49 μM). BL-1249 produced a concentration-dependent hyperpolarization with an EC50 of 21.0 μM in human aortic smooth muscle cells[1].
In in vitro organ bath experiments, BL-1249 produces a concentration-dependent relaxation of 30 mM KCl-induced contractions in rat bladder strips (EC50 of 1.12 μM), yet has no effect on aortic strips up to the highest concentration tested (10 μM). The bladder relaxation produced by BL-1249 is partially blocked by Ba2+ (1 and 10 mM)[1].
BL-1249 is a selective agonist of the TREK subfamily when applied extracellularly, having preferential action on K2P2.1(TREK-1) and K2P10.1(TREK-2) over K2P4.1(TRAAK) and establish that its mechanism of action relies on gating at the selectivity filter C-type gate[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

BL-1249 (1 mg/kg) inhibits isovolumic bladder contractions in vivo. The short duration of the effect of BL-1249 on bladder contraction ( 30 min) is likely due to a fast elimination half-life of the compound after i.v. administration (0.69 h)[1].
BL-1249 (1 mg/kg) has little effect on mean arterial blood pressure, an observation again consistent with the in vitro bladder to vascular relaxant selectivity[1].

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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.58 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.58 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

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.
