Description:	Selexipag (NS-304) is an orally available and potent agonist for the Prostacyclin (PGI2) receptor (IP receptor).
Target:	IP Receptor
In Vivo:	The Cmax of MRE-269 after oral administration of NS-304 is 1.1 μg/mL in rats and 9.0 μg/mL in dogs. Selexipag (NS-304) at 1 or 3 mg/kg increases FSBF in anesthetized rats for more than 4 h after intraduodenal administration in a dose-dependent manner. In particular, Selexipag (NS-304) at 3 mg/kg causes a sustained increase in FSBF and exhibits a maximal increase of 93% in FSBF 1 h after administration[1].
In Vitro:	Selexipag (NS-304) is an orally available and long-acting IP receptor agonist prodrug, and its active form, MRE-269, is highly selective for the IP receptor. Selexipag (NS-304) inhibits the binding of [3H]Iloprost to the human and rat IP receptors in a concentration-dependent manner. The Ki is 260 nM for the human IP receptor and 2100 nM for the rat IP receptor. The intracellular cAMP levels in hIP-CHO cells are increased in a concentration-dependent manner by treatment with Selexipag (NS-304) with EC50 of 177nM. Selexipag (NS-304) also inhibits platelet aggregation in humans and monkeys with IC50 values of 5.5 and 3.4 μM, respectively, but it shows no inhibition in dogs (IC50 of >100 μM)[1].
Cell Assay:	CHO cells expressing the human IP receptor (hIP-CHO cells) are seeded at 1×105 cells/well in a 24-well plate and cultured for 48 h. The cells are washed with Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline without divalent cations, preincubated in the medium for 1 h at 37°C, and then incubated for 15 min at 37°C with medium containing each drug in the presence of 500 μM 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. The medium is removed, and perchloric acid solution is added to terminate the reaction. Intracellular cAMP levels are measured by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay[1].
Animal Administration:	Mice[1] Male Sprague-Dawley rats, cynomolgus monkeys, and male beagle dogs are used. Selexipag (NS-304) is orally administered to rats at 10 mg/kg and to dogs at 3 mg/kg, and blood samples are collected at various times and centrifuged to obtain plasma. The plasma concentrations of Selexipag (NS-304) and MRE-269 after oral administration of Selexipag (NS-304) to each animal are determined by high performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC/MS), and their pharmacokinetic parameters are calculated.Rats are orally administered Selexipag (NS-304) at 3 mg/kg twice daily for 1, 2, 3, or 4 weeks as a pretreatment. On the day after the final administration in the pretreatment, rats are anesthetized with urethane, and the FSBF is measured with a laser Doppler flowmeter after intraduodenal administration of Selexipag (NS-304) at 3 mg/kg[1].

Cat. No.	Product name	Field of application
DC82301	IC-8	IC8 is an ionizable cationic lipid. It has been used in combination with other lipids for the formation of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). Immunization with severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike glycoprotein mRNA in IC8- and manganese-containing LNPs induces IgG responses to SARS-CoV-2 Delta and Omicron variants in mice.1 Administration of mRNA encoding B7-H3 X CD3 bispecific T cell engaging (BiTE) antibodies in IC8-containing LNPs reduces tumor growth in MV4-11 and A375 mouse xenograft models.
DC75721	CL2A-SN38 (Govitecan)	CL2A-SN38 is a SN38 derivative with a peptide-linker which can easily react with antibody to form an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). CL2A-SN-38 is composed of a potent a DNA Topoisomerase I inhibitor SN-38 and a linker CL2A to make antibody drug conjugate (ADC). CL2A-SN-38 provides significant and specific antitumor effects against a range of human solid tumor types. CL2A is a noncleavable complicated PEG8- and triazole-containing PABC-peptide-mc linker. CL2A is cleavable through pH sensitivity, giving rise to bystander effect, and binds the antibody at a cysteine residue via a disulfide bond. .
