Embodiment 1
[0119] Example 1: β-Arrestin Assay
[0120] The PathHunter β-Arrestin GPCR Assay is a whole-cell functional assay that directly measures the ability of a ligand to activate a GPCR by detecting the interaction of β-arrestin with an activated GPCR. Since β-arrestin recruitment is independent of G protein signaling, these assays provide a powerful and versatile screening and analysis platform for virtually any Gi-, Gs or Gq-coupled receptor.
[0121] In this system, GPCR and small enzyme fragment ProLink TM were fused in frame and co-expressed in cells stably expressing a β-arrestin fusion protein and a larger N-terminal deletion mutant of β-gal, termed enzyme receptor or EA. Activation of the GPCR stimulates the binding of β-arrestin to the ProLink-tagged GPCR and forces complementarity of the two enzyme fragments, resulting in the formation of active β-gal enzyme. This interaction results in an increase in enzyme activity, which can be detected using chemiluminescence Det...
Embodiment 2
[0125] Example 2: Comparative effects of KBP-047 to KBP-063 on food intake in healthy Sprague Dawley rats.
[0126] Rats were single caged four days prior to individual testing. They were randomly divided into 7 groups by weight (vehicle (0.9% NaCl), KBP (dose: 2.5 μg / kg). They were fasted overnight and then treated with a single dose of peptide or vehicle subcutaneously in the morning. Following Food intake was monitored at serial intervals (0-4 hours and 4-24 hours).
[0127] Such as Figure 4 As shown in A, both KBP-047 and KBP-053 resulted in a reduction in food intake within a 4-hour interval, and the effect was maintained at 24 hours, with KBP-047 having the greatest reduction, followed by KBP-053.
[0128] Such as Figure 4 As shown in B, KBP-058, KBP-062 and KBP-063 all lead to a reduction in food intake within a 4-hour interval, and the effect is maintained at 24 hours, with KBP-062 having the largest reduction, followed by KBP-058 and KBP-063 In this order. An...
