Beinaglutide is a novel recombinant human GLP-1 (rhGLP-1) with high homology (~100%) with human GLP-1 (7–36). It has the potential for the treatment of overweight/obesity and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Beinaglutide exhibits does-dependent effects in glycemic control, acting by inhibiting food intake and gastric empty and promoting weight loss.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | In adipocytes induced by increased insulin, benaglutide (100 nM; 48 hours) increases the expression of Akt phosphorylation [2]. |
| ln Vivo | In mice, beenaglutide (0.6, 1.2, 2.4 mg/kg; sc; three times daily for seven days) has been demonstrated to lower body weight, suppress food intake, and regulate blood sugar [1]. Adipocytes are more sensitive to insulin when benaglutide (150 μg/kg; sc; once daily for 6 weeks) is administered [2]. |
| Cell Assay |
Western Blot Analysis[2] Cell Types: 3T3L-1 cells Tested Concentrations: 100 nM Incubation Duration: 48 h Experimental Results: Increased the phosphorylation of Akt in the adipocytes that were potentiated insulin-stimulated. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Wild-type male C57BL/6 mice and Male Lepob/Lepob (ob/ob) mice (ob/ob-NASH mouse model was induced by GAN diet)[1] Doses: 0.6, 1.2, 2.4 mg/kg Route of Administration: Sc; three times per day for 7 days Experimental Results: Dramatically decreased blood glucose with dosedependence in C57BL/6 and ob/ob mice, dose dependently inhibits food intake and gastric Emptying, and Dramatically decreased body weight, food intake with dose-dependence . Animal/Disease Models: Eightweeks old male C57BL/6 mice[2] Doses: 150 µg/kg Route of Administration: Sc; daily for 6 weeks Experimental Results: demonstrated improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, diminished adipose tissue weight and adipocyte size and potentiated insulin sensitivity of adipocytes. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.

Oral Formulation 3: Dissolved in PEG400 Oral Formulation 4: Suspend in 0.2% Carboxymethyl cellulose Oral Formulation 5: Dissolve in 0.25% Tween 80 and 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Oral Formulation 6: Mixing with food powders Note: Please be aware that the above formulations are for reference only. InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
