CALP3, a Ca2+-like peptide, is a potent Ca2+ channel blocker that activates EF hand motifs of Ca2+-binding proteins. CALP3 can functionally mimic increased [Ca2+]i by modulating the activity of Calmodulin (CaM), Ca2+ channels and pumps. CALP3 has the potential in controlling apoptosis in diseases such as AIDS or neuronal loss due to ischemia.

Description

CALP3, a Ca2+-like peptide, is a potent Ca2+ channel blocker that activates EF hand motifs of Ca2+-binding proteins. CALP3 can functionally mimic increased [Ca2+]i by modulating the activity of Calmodulin (CaM), Ca2+ channels and pumps. CALP3 has the potential in controlling apoptosis in diseases such as AIDS or neuronal loss due to ischemia[1][2].

In Vitro

CALP3 (50, 100, 150, 200 μM) inhibits glutamate caused a large sustained increase in [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner (IC50=37.25 μM) in Fura-2-loaded neuronal cultures[1].
CALP3 (50, 100, 150, 200 μM) inhibits glutamate-induced cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner (IC50=50.97 μM) in cultured rat neocortical neurons. CALP3 causes dose-dependent inhibition of apoptosis (IC50=33.41 μM)[1].
CALP3 (100 μM) inhibits apoptosis induced by HIV gp120 and SAg in Human T cells[1].
CALP3 (100?μM; 15?min pretreatment) reduces gossypol-induced necrosis and increases the fraction of live cells[2].
Cyclic-CALP3 is synthesized starting from Fmoc-Asp(PEG-PS)-OAl. Cyclic CALP3 is unable to inhibit Ca21 influx, and this peptide served as a negative control. Cyclic CALP3 does not inhibit the effect of glutamate[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: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (1.42 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 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: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (1.42 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 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.

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.
