Exendin-3 is a biologically active peptides isolated from venoms of the Gila monster lizards, Heloderma horridurn.
IC50 Target
VIP receptor, putative exendin receptor[1]
体外研究 (In Vitro)
Exendin-3 interacts with at least two receptors on guinea pig pancreatic acini; at high concentrations (>100 nM) the peptide interacts with VIP receptors, thereby causing a large increase in cAMP and stimulating amylase release; at lower concentrations (0.1-3 nM) the peptide interacts with a putative exendin receptor, thereby causing a smaller increase in cAMP of undetermined function[1].
MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Negative (lt;0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2.;;If water fails, add NH4OH (lt;50 μL). 3.;;If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide.
Positive (gt;0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2.;;If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution. 3.;;If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO.
Zero (=0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first. 2.;;For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration.

Kinase Assay [1]
Effect of increasing concentrations of two VIP receptor antagonists on the increase in amylase release are observed with VIP, secretin, or exendin-3. Male Hartley guinea pigs Acini were incubated with VIP (1 nM), secretin (1 μM), or Exendin-3 (1 μM) for 30 min at 37°C, alone or in combination with indicated concentrations of [AcTyr, D-Phe]GRF 1-29 amide (solid symbols) or [4-Cl-D-Phe,Leu] VIP (open symbols)[1].
