10.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, take 10 mg of this product, add it to 1 ml of 0.5% methylcellulose clear solution, and mix evenly to form a uniform suspension. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Dalcetrapib (JTT-705) is a rhCETP inhibitor with IC50 of 0.2 μM that increases the plasma HDL cholesterol. Phase 3.
Targets
rhCETP [1]
0.2 μM
In vitro Dalcetrapib modulates CETP activity. Dalcetrapib induces a conformational change in CETP, when added to human plasma. CETP-induced pre-β-HDL formation in human plasma is unchanged by Dalcetrapib ≤3 µM and increased at 10 µM. Dalcetrapib statistically and significantly increases pre-β-HDL formation. [1] Dalcetrapib achieves 50% inhibition of CETP activity in human plasma at a concentration of 9 μM. [2] Dalcetrapib inhibits the CETP activity of media in HepG2 in a dose-dependent manner. [3]
In vivo Treatment with Dalcetrapib leads to significant increases in HDL-C levels. In hamsters injected with [3H]cholesterol-labeled autologous macrophages Dalcetrapib significantly increases fecal elimination of both [3H]neutral sterols and [3H]bile acids. Dalcetrapib increases plasma HDL-[3H]cholesterol. [1] Dalcetrapib has 95% inhibition of CETP activity in male Japanese white rabbits at an oral dose of 30 mg/kg. Dalcetrapib increases the plasma HDL cholesterol level by 27% and 54%, respectively, when given at oral doses of 30 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg once a day for 3 days to male Japanese white rabbits. [2] Treatment with Dalcetrapib markedly increases serum levels of HDL-C. The ratio of HDL2-C to HDL3-C is significantly higher in Dalcetrapib–treated rabbits than in control rabbits at 5 and 7 months, indicating that the inhibition of CETP activity by Dalcetrapib changes the distribution of HDL subfractions and preferentially increases HDL2-C levels. Dalcetrapib treatment increases serum paraoxonase activity and HDL-associated platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase activity, but decreases the plasma lysophosphatidylcholine concentration. [4]

Protocol (from reference)

Kinase Assay:[1]
  • Inhibition of rhCETP and C13S CETP-mediated transfer of CE from HDL to LDL

    The inhibitory potency (IC50) of Dalcetrapib to decrease CE transfer from HDL to LDL by rhCETP and C13S CETP is measured using a scintillation proximity assay kit. Briefly, [3H]CE-labeled HDL donor particles are incubated in the presence of purified CETP proteins (final concentration 0.5 µg/mL) and biotinylated LDL acceptor particles for 3 hours at 37 °C. Subsequently, streptavidin-coupled polyvinyltoluene beads containing liquid scintillation cocktail binding selectively to biotinylated LDL are added, and the amount of [3H]CE molecules transferred to LDL is measured by β counting.
Cell Assay:[3]
  • Cell lines

    HepG2 cells

  • Concentrations

    0-30 μM

  • Incubation Time

    24 hours

  • Method

    The HepG2 cells are seeded in 6-well plates and cultured to 70–80% confluence. After being washed with PBS, the cells are incubated with growth medium and a different concentration (0 μM–30 μM) of chemical inhibitor Dalcetrapib and dissolved in 2% DMSO for 24 hours. Total RNA is used for RT-PCR.
Animal Study:[1]
  • Animal Models

    Syrian hamsters

  • Dosages

    100 mg/kg

  • Administration

    Oral gavage
