Description: Taranabant (aslo known as MK-0364) is a novel, highly potent and selective cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor inverse agonist being investigated as a potential treatment for obesity due to its anorectic effects.

ProtocolIn VitroTaranabant (MK-0364) binds to human or rat CB1R with an IC50 of 0.3 and 0.4 nM, respectively, corresponding to a Ki value of 0.13 and 0.27 nM, respectively. Taranabant binds to the human or rat CB2R with an IC50 value of 290 and 470 nM, respectively, corresponding to a Ki value of 170 and 310 nM, respectively. The selectivity ratio of CB1R over CB2R is approximately 1000-fold
In VivoTaranabant (MK-0364) dose-dependently inhibits 2 h and overnight food intake as well as overnight gains in body weight in C57BL/6N mice. At the 1- and 3-mg/kg doses (p.o.), Taranabant significantly inhibits 2-h food intake (36 and 69% reductions, respectively; P<0.05 and P<0.00001, respectively) and overnight food intake (13 and 40% reductions, respectively; P<0.05 and P<0.00001, respectively) as well as overnight gains in body weight (48 and 165% reductions, respectively; P<0.01 and P<0.00001, respectively). Taranabant dose-dependently inhibits food intake and weight gain, with an acute minimum effective dose of 1 mg/kg in diet-induced obese (DIO) rats

Calculation Results:
Working concentration: mg/ml;
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.
