Description of Begacestat

Begacestat (GSI-953) is a selective thiophene sulfonamide inhibitor of amyloid precursor protein gamma-secretase (IC50Aβ40=15 nM) for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease[1].

Begacestat (5 mg/kg, p.o. in mice) treatment for 4 h significantly reduces the Aβ40 and Aβ42 in brain (37% lowering of brain Aβ40 and 25% lowering of Aβ40 observed)[1].Begacestat (GSI-953: 0, 2.5, 5, or 10 mg/kg, oral gavage, 3 h) results in a dose-dependent reversal of contextual fear conditioning deficits when compound is orally administered 3 h before training. Significant deficits are observed after treatment with 2.5 mg/kg Begacestat, and there is some reversal of this at 5 mg/kg and full reversal at 10 mg/kg compared with vehicle-dosed Tg2576 mice[2].A dosage-related trend of slightly lower percentages of SP CD4+ cells in males at all dosages (SP CD4+ cells=~11% in controls compared with ~7% to ~9% in Begacestat-dosed animals) and females at 2000 mg/kg/day (SP CD4+ cells=~10% in controls compared with ~8% in Begacestat-dosed animals) is observed[2].

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 addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
