The Activity Data of This Peptide
Peptide Activity Information 1 [1]
IC50 0.14 ± 0.02 nM
Binding Affinity Assay
Antiproliferative and cytotoxic effects, respectively, of the compounds were detected by using a fluorometric resazurin-based cell viability assay (in vitro toxicology assay kit; Sigma-Aldrich, Taufkirchen, Germany). Colon (HT-29 and Colo320), prostate (PC-3), breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231), the chemically transformed but normal mammary gland epithelium cell line 184B5, as well as the S10 Ewing`s sarcoma family cell line SK-N-MC were seeded with low densities into 96- well plates (4,000 - 20,000 cells per well; seeding confluency &tide; 10 - 20%), and were allowed to adhere for 24 h. Subsequently, the compounds and peptide-toxin conjugate 8 - diluted to appropriate concentrations in the respective culture medium - were added to the cells. HT-29, Colo320 and PC-3 cells were treated for 72 h with tubulysin A, 2, 8 and 9. SK-N-MC, MDA-MB-468, MDA-MB-231 and 184B5 cells were initially incubated with the peptide-toxin conjugate 8 for 6 h. After that initial incubation, the incubation solution was discarded, the cells were rinsed once with cell culture medium, and subsequently were allowed to proliferate in compound-free medium until 72 h were reached. Alternatively, SK-N-MC, MDA-MB-468, MDA-MB231 and 184B5 cells were incubated for the whole experimental period of 72 h with the test items. Finally, resazurin solution in DMEM was added to yield a final resazurin concentration of 50 μM, and cells were incubated under standard growth conditions for 2 h. The conversion of resazurin to resorufin by viable, metabolically active cells was measured using a Synergy 2 multiwell plate reader (BioTek, Bad Friedrichshall, Germany) with 540 nm excitation and 590 nm emission filter setting. Non-linear regression analyses of these data was done by using GraphPad Prism software to calculate IC50 values.

Binding Affinity Assay
The receptor activation, selectivity, and internalization were investigated to ensure that the attachment of the cleavable linker and tesa did not alter the behavior of NPY1R-preferring carrier peptide [F7, P34]-NPY. The activation of the human Y-receptors was tested using Ca2+-flux assays in COS-7 cells stably expressing one specific Y-receptor subtype (NPY1/2/4/5R) and chimeric G protein (6Gaqi4-myr), opening the Ca2+ channels upon receptor activation

Experiment 1 Reporting the Activity Data of This PDC [2]
Indication Type 2 diabetes
Efficacy Data Triglycerides level
0.65
Administration Time Every day; over 8 days
Administration Dosage 2.5 µM
MOA of PDC
In vitro studies revealed that the tesaglitazar-[F7, P34]-NPY conjugate selectively activates PPARγ in NPY1R-expressing cells and enhances adipocyte differentiation and adiponectin expression in adipocyte precursor cells.Additionally, tesa-NPY induces adipocyte differentiation in vivo.
Description
The influence of tesa, tesa-NPY (3), and [F7, P34]-NPY (2) on the plasma lipids was also analyzed (Figure 9). The vehicle/untreated db/db mice showed elevated levels of triglycerides and free fatty acids (FFA) compared to the lean C57BL/6N mice. Treatment with tesa and tesa-NPY (3) led to a normalization of the triglycerides, FFA, whereas [F7, P34]-NPY (2) and vehicle/untreated had no influence on the lipid metabolism (Figure 9A/B). The cholesterol levels were unchanged by any treatment as these levels were also comparable in the untreated db/db mice compared to the lean mice (Figure 9C).

In vitro studies revealed that the tesaglitazar-[F7, P34]-NPY conjugate selectively activates PPARγ in NPY1R-expressing cells and enhances adipocyte differentiation and adiponectin expression in adipocyte precursor cells.Additionally, tesa-NPY induces adipocyte differentiation in vivo.
Description
Whereas in the vehicle/untreated mice, the HbA1C values increased by approximately 2%, a graduated reduced increase was seen for [F7, P34]-NPY (2), peptide conjugate (3), and tesa (Figure 8A). Body temperature, which decreased to 35 C in the vehicle/untreated db/db controls, was normalized to 36 C in all of the treated mice including the mice treated with [F7, P34]-NPY (2) (Figure 8B). Treatment with tesa and tesa-NPY (3) led to normalization of the plasma concentration of ketone bodies and adiponectin, whereas [F7, P34]-NPY (2) and vehicle/untreated showed no effect (Figure 8C/E). Treatment had no major influence on the insulin and Mcp-1 levels (Figure 8D/G). The serum leptin concentration was reduced in the mice treated with tesa, whereas no reduction was detectable in all of the other treated mice (Figure 8F).

Experiment 1 Reporting the Activity Data of This PDC [1]
Indication Tumor
Efficacy Data Half Maximal Inhibitory Concentration (IC50)
205 ± 49 nM
Description
As shown in Table 1, the cytotoxic potency of the tubugi-1-SH was - in case of HT-29 and PC-3 - by factors 5 to 8 higher compared to the entire peptide-toxin conjugate 8. The only slight increase of cytotoxic activity of compound 9 compared to the complete conjugate 8 in Colo320 cells is most likely caused by a generally weak responsiveness of Colo320 cells towards tubugi-1-SH and the entire conjugate tubugi-1-SS-NPY. When compared with HT-29 and PC-3 cells, the IC50 value of tubugi-1-SH is by factor 10 higher in Colo320. Since the membrane passage of tubugi-1-SH is not depending on a NPY receptor, there have to be other explanations for the reduced cytotoxic impact of tubugi-1 and corresponding derivatives in Colo320, rather than the NPY Y1 receptor expression level.

Administration Time 72 h
Administration Dosage 10 µM
Description
The 72 h treatment is more effective than the 6 h pulse treatment. Notably, in vitro antitumor activities of 8 were found to correlate very good with the hY1R expression levels, as detected by gene expression analyses using RT-qPCR. Both the cytotoxic activity and the hY1R expression level rank in the order SK-N-MC > MDA-MB-468 > MDA-MB-231 > 184B5, what proofs the hY1R-specific and -selective nature of the mode of antitumor action of the designed PDC 8. Importantly, the activity of 8 against the selected normal breast cell line 184B5 is in the same order of magnitude as for the hY1R-deficient tumor cell line (MDA-MB-231), both tested at even higher concentration of the PDC than for the Y1 cell lines.
