Description of Lesopitron dihydrochloride (E4424)

Lesopitron dihydrochloride is a full and selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist with IC50 of 125 nM in rat hippocampal membranes.

In vitro binding and autoradiographic studies with [3H]8-OH-DPAT and [3H]Lesopitron as radioligands confirm that Lesopitron binds to 5-HT1A receptors in the rat brain with a relatively high affinity (pKi=7.35). As expected of a full agonist at postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptors, Lesopitron (IC50=125 nM) inhibits forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in rat hippocampal membranes to the same extent as 5-HT. Lesopitron inhibits the firing of serotoninergic neurons both in vitro (in brainstem slices, IC50=120 nM)[1].

Lesopitron inhibits the firing of serotoninergic neurons both in vivo (in chloral hydrate-anaesthetized rats, ID50=35 μg/kg i.v.)[1]. Lesopitron administered at a dose which induces anxiolytic behaviour in rats (30 μg/kg, i.p.) markedly reduces 5-HT levels (to 45% of the basal value) in cortical perfusates[2].

Protocol of Lesopitron dihydrochloride (E4424)

Animal experiment:

Rats[2] Male Wistar rats weighing 270-300 g, are used. Lesopitron is administered either through the dialysis probe (dissolved in artificial CSF) or i.p. (dissolved in 0.9% saline, 2 mL/kg body weight).

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 ddH2O, 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.
