COA Handling Instructions

Basmisanil (RG1662) is a highly selective orally active α subunit-containing GABAA receptors (GABAAα5) negative allosteric modulator (NAMs). Basmisanil can inhibit GABAA-α5 with a Ki value of 5 nM and IC50 value of 8 nM, respectively. Basmisanil can be used for the research of multiple cognitive and psychiatric disorders.

Description

Basmisanil (RG1662) is a highly selective orally active α subunit-containing GABAA receptors (GABAAα5) negative allosteric modulator (NAMs). Basmisanil can inhibit GABAA-α5 with a Ki value of 5 nM and IC50 value of 8 nM, respectively. Basmisanil can be used for the research of multiple cognitive and psychiatric disorders[1].

IC50 & Target

IC50: 8 nM (GABAAα5)
Ki: 5 nM (GABAAα5); 1031 nM (GABAAα1); 458 nM (GABAAα2); 510 nM (GABAAα3)

In Vitro

Basmisanil (0.1 nM-100 μM) has high affinity for bounding to recombinant human GABAA-α5 receptors with a Ki value of 5 nM and more than 90-fold selectivity versus α1 (Ki = 1031 nM), α2 (Ki = 458 nM), and α3 (Ki = 510 nM) subunit-containing receptors[1].
Basmisanil (1 nM-1 μM) shows a highly selective inhibition of GABAA-α5 with a IC50 value of 8 nM[1].
Basmisanil (1 μM) inhibits GABA-induced currents at GABAA-α5 yet had little or no effect at the other receptor subtypes[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Basmisanil (3-100 mg/kg, p.o.) occupies GABAA-α receptor in dose-dependent in rat brain[1].
Basmisanil (3-600 mg/kg p.o.) improves cognition in rats and non.human primates and not show anxiogenic or proconvulsant effects[1].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.61 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.61 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
