Vapreotide is a neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonist, with an IC50 of 330 nM.
IC50 & Target
330 nM (NK1R)[1].
体外研究 (In Vitro)
Vapreotide attenuates the effect of SP on calcium release in a concentration-dependent manner. The concentration required for Vapreotide to completely inhibit the effect of SP is about 100 times higher than that required for the NK1R antagonist aprepitant. The effect of Vapreotide on cell proliferation is mediated primarily by SSTR2. In order to further establish the NK1R antagonist effect of Vapreotide, U373MG cells are pretreated with SSTR2 selective antagonist CYN followed by incubation with Vapreotide and SP stimulation. The results show that pretreatment with CYN does not reverse the inhibitory effect of Vapreotide on SP-stimulated IL-8 mRNA expression. Vapreotide reduces HIV-1 replication in MDM as indicated by limited HIV gag mRNA expression compared to control MDM. In addition, SP treatment (10 μM) reverses Vapreotide inhibition of HIV-1 replication in MDM. This observation indicates that the inhibition of HIV-1 replication by Vapreotide is most likely due to its interaction with NK1R[1].

Cell Assay [1]
The HEK293-NK1R cells and U373MG cells are incubated with or without Vapreotide (0, 5, 10, 20 μM) for 10 minutes and then incubated with or without SP for 3 hours. In some experiments, cells are first incubated with CYN for 10 minutes, and then Vapreotide is added and incubated for an additional 10 minutes, followed by stimulation with SP for 3 hours. Mock treated cells are used as controls[1].

体外研究 (In Vitro)
Vapreotide attenuates the Substance P (SP)-triggered intracellular calcium increases and NF-κB activation in a dose-dependent manner. Vapreotide also inhibits SP-induced IL-8 and MCP-1 production in HEK293-NK1R and U373MG cell lines. Vapreotide inhibits HIV-1 infection of human MDM in vitro, an effect that is reversible by SP pretreatment[1]. Vapreotide significantly inhibits GH-, PRL, and/or alpha-subunit release by human GH-secreting pituitary adenoma cells in concentrations as low as 10-12-10-14 M. Vapreotide inhibits GH release with an IC50 of 0.1 pM[2]. Vapreotide exhibits moderate-to-high affinities for SSTR2, -3, and -5 (IC50=0.17, 0.1 and 21 nM, respectively) and low affinity for SSTR1 and -4 (IC50=200 and 620 nM, respectively). RC-160 inhibits serum-induced proliferation of CHO cells expressing SSTR2 and SSTR5 (EC50=53 and 150 pM, respectively)[3].

体内研究 (In Vivo)
In cirrhosis, bleeding by rupture of oesophagogastric varices is a severe complication of portal hypertension. The acute administration of vapreotide to rats decreases collateral circulation blood flow while chronic administration attenuated its development[4]. Tumor volumes and weights are reduced by about 40% by RC-160 by s.c. injections at doses of 100 μg/day/animal. Vapreotide can inhibit the growth of androgen-independent prostate cancer when the therapy is started at an early stage of tumor development[5].

Cell Assay [3]
CHO cells are cultured in aMEM containing 10% FCS. After overnight attachment, the medium is changed to a MEM containing either 10% FCS or insulin with and without vapreotide. Cell growth is measured after 24 h by counting cells with a Coulter counter model ZM[3].

Animal Administration [4][5]
Rats: Acute effects are evaluated at baseline and 30 min after placebo or vapreotide (8 μg/kg/hr) infusions in DMNA rats. Chronic hemodynamic effects are evaluated using subcutaneous implants for five weeks in anesthetized DMNA rats and in sham rats. Hemodynamic measurements include splenorenal shunt blood flow by the transit time ultrasound method and cardiac output by the combined dilution–TTU method[4].
Mice: Nude mice bearing xenografts of the androgen-independent human prostate-cancer cell line PC-3 are treated for 4 weeks with somatostatin analog vapreotide (20 μg/day/animal), bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) antagonist, or the combination of both peptides. Tumor volumes and weights are measured[5].
