Description: MK-8245 (MK8245; MK 8245) is a novel and potent liver-targeted inhibitor of stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) with anti-diabetic and anti-dyslipidemic activities. It inhibits stearoyl-CoA desaturase with an IC50 of 1 nM for human SCD1 and 3 nM for both rat SCD1 and mouse SCD1. It exhibits high anti-diabetic and anti-dyslipidemic efficacy in vivo and a significantly improved therapeutic window.

ProtocolIn VitroMK-8245 exhibits a significant SCD inhibition in the rat hepatocyte assay which contains functional, actives organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) with IC50 of 68 nM, while being only weakly active OATPs in the HepG2 cell assay which is devoid of active with IC50 of ~1 μM. MK-8245 displays similar potencies against human, rat and mouse SCD1, with IC50 values of 1 nM for human SCD1 and 3 nM for both rat SCD1 and mouse SCD. MK-8245 is a potent and liver-specific SCD inhibit.
In VivoMK-8245 improves glucose clearance in a dose-dependent manner in eDIO mice administrated before the glucose challenge. MK-8245 (10mg/kg; p.o.) exhibits a tissue distribution profile concentrated in the liver, with low exposure in tissues associated with potential adverse events in rats, dogs, and rhesus monkeys.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in µL DMSO(Master liquid concentration mg/mL) ,Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take µL DMSO master liquid, next add µL PEG300, mix and clarify, next add µL Tween 80,mix and clarify, next add µL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
Note:
  • (1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
  • (2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
