Bioactivity | GRA Ex-25 is an inhibitor of glucagon receptor, with IC50 of 56 and 55 nM for rat and human glucagon receptors, respectively. | ||||||||||||
Target | IC50: 56 nM (rat glucagon receptor), 55 nM (human glucagon receptor) | ||||||||||||
Invitro | GRA Ex-25 binds a human glucagon receptor (h-GlucRbind) with Ki of 63 nM and a moderate glucagon induced adenylate cyclase inhibition (h-GlucRcyclase) with Ki of 254 nM under our assay conditions[1]. GRA Ex-25 has similar affinity to the rat and human glucagon receptors (IC50=56 and 55 nM, respectively)[2]. | ||||||||||||
In Vivo | GRA Ex-25 (3 mg/kg, i.v.) significantly reduces blood glucose caused by exogenous administration of glucagon in rat model. GRA Ex-25 is able to inhibit the rise in blood glucose levels elicited by exogenous administered glucagon, most likely because of the direct inhibition of glucagon stimulated hepatic glucose output[2]. | ||||||||||||
