Volanesorsen (ISIS 304801) is an antisense oligonucleotide inhibitor of apolipoprotein CIII (apo-CIII) mRNA that reduces triglyceride levels and improves insulin resistance. Volanesorsen is being studied in the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia, familial chylosiderosis syndrome, and type 2 diabetes.

Description

Volanesorsen (ISIS 304801) is an antisense oligonucleotide inhibitor of apolipoprotein CIII (apo-CIII) mRNA that reduces triglyceride levels and improves insulin resistance. Volanesorsen is being studied in the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia, familial chylosiderosis syndrome, and type 2 diabetes[1][2][3][4][5].

IC50 & Target

apoC3

 

In Vivo

Volanesorsen (1.5-50 mg/kg; i.p.; once a week for 2 weeks) dose-dependently reduces human apolipoprotein CIII (apo-CIII) mRNA, plasma apo-CIII protein and triglyceride (TG) levels in human apo-CIII transgenic mice[1].
Volanesorsen (4-40 mg/kg; s.c.; once a week for 13 weeks) dose-responsively reduces apoC-III mRNA levels in the liver of cynomolgus monkeys[1].
Volanesorsen (10 mg/kg; s.c.; once weekly for 10 weeks) reduces plasma triglyceride levels in hypertriglyceridemic rhesus monkeys[1].

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

Animal Model: Chow-Fed Cynomolgus[1]
Dosage: 4, 8, 12 and 40 mg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous injection (s.c.) Once a week for 13 weeks
Result: Reduced apoC-III mRNA by 47%, 51%, 80%, and 89% in a dose-responsive manner.
Animal Model: Rhesus monkeys with hypertriglyceridemia after taking high fructose supplements[1]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous injection (s.c.) Once a week for 10 weeks
Result: Reduced plasma triglycerides, very low–density lipoprotein (VLDL)+chylomicron triglyceride, and decreased postprandial triglyceride excursion, while increasing high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) in hypertriglyceridemic rhesus monkeys.

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.
