Product Description

Vildagliptin (formerly also known as NVP LAF237; DSP-7238; LAF-237; trade name: Zomelis) is an potent and orally bioavailable anti-diabetic medication with an IC50 of 2.3 nM that functions as a DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase 4) inhibitor. Vildagliptin prevents DPP-4 from inactivating GLP-1 and GIP, which enables GLP-1 and GIP to enhance insulin secretion in beta cells and inhibit glucagon release by alpha cells in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. It has been demonstrated that vildagliptin lowers hyperglycemia in people with type 2 diabetes. In February 2008, the European Union approved vildagliptin as an anti-hyperglycemic medication.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
DPP-IV (IC50 = 3.5 nM)
ln Vitro
Vildagliptin inhibits cell apoptosis, which increases beta cell survival. Additionally, vildagliptin stimulates cell division[2].
ln Vivo
Vildagliptin (35 mg/kg; once daily by oral gavage) raises the levels of plasma active GLP-1 in the islets of db/db mice[2].
Vildagliptin Vildagliptin (10 µmol/kg; oral) in obese male Zucker rats significantly reduces glucose excursions and increases insulin secretion[1]. in obese male Zucker rats significantly reduces glucose excursions and increases insulin secretion[1].
Enzyme Assay
Vildagliptin (LAF-237; NVP-LAF 237) has an IC50 of 2.3 nM, which inhibits DPP-4. Figure 2 represents vildagliptin, an N-substituted glycyl-2-cyanopyrrolidine. With an inhibitory concentration (IC50) of approximately 2–3 nmol/L, it is a strong, reversible, and competitive inhibitor of DPP-4 in both humans and rodents in vitro. Crucially, vildagliptin exhibits high specificity inhibition of DPP-4 in comparison to other analogous peptidases, wherein its IC50 surpasses 200 mol/L.
Animal Protocol
Male db/db mice (BKS) and wildtype mice[2]
35 mg/kg
Oral gavage; once daily; for 6 weeks

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
