AMY-101 (Cp40) 是补体 C3 的肽类抑制剂 (KD = 0.5 nM),可抑制非人类灵长类动物自然发生的牙周炎。AMY-101 (Cp40) 在 COVID-19 重症肺炎合并全身超炎症模型中具有良好的抗炎活性。
生物活性 |
AMY-101 (Cp40), a peptidic inhibitor of the central complement component C3 (KD = 0.5 nM), inhibits naturally occurring periodontitis in non-human primates (NHPs). AMY-101 (Cp40) exhibits a favorable anti-inflammatory activity in models with COVID-19 severe pneumonia with systemic hyper inflammation[1][2].

体内研究 (In Vivo) |
AMY-101 can improve the periodontal condition of NHPs with natural chronic periodontitis[1]. AMY-101 can induce a long-lasting anti-inflammatory effect[1]. AMY-101 (4 mg/kg bodyweight, subcutaneous injection. once per 24 hr for a total of 28 days) causes a significant and long-lasting reduction in PPD, an index that measures tissue destruction[1]. AMY-101 (Cp40, 1 mg/kg, sc, injection every 12 h, daily, 7 or 14 days) attenuates fibrosis and infiltration of inflammatory cells in UUO-induced renal fibrosis[3].
MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Animal Model: |
Fifteen adult male cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) (7-15 years old; 5.0-7.6 kg body weight)[1]. |
Dosage: |
0.1 mg/site; 50 μL of 2 mg/mL solution. |
Administration: |
Injected locally. (Either three times per week or once a week for 6 weeks followed by a 6-week follow-up period without treatment.) |
Result: |
Does not cause irritation in healthy gingiva. |
Animal Model: |
UUO and sham-operated mice[3]. |
Dosage: |
1 mg/kg. |
Administration: |
Subcutaneous injection every 12 h, daily, 7 or 14 days. |
Result: |
1 mg/kg Cp40 had much less severe interstitial fibrosis than control peptide-injected mice. |

Details |
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. |
