Description

Isoguvacine hydrochloride is a GABA receptor agonist.

IC50 & Target

GABA[1]

In Vitro

Isoguvacine binds to a mouse forebrain synaptic membrane preparation. The specific binding is displaceable by GABA, muscimol and bicuculline but not by picrotoxin or diaminobutyric acid. Kinetic data suggest two binding affinities. Highest levels of binding are observed in the cerebellum, cortex and hippocampus[1]. Isoguvacine binds to membrane preparations of rat forebrain with pharmacological characteristics similar to the postsynaptic GABA recognition site: that it is transported into synaptosomal preparations by an uptake system similar to the high-affinity GABA uptake system; and that recently accumulated isoguvacine is released in a Ca2+-dependent manner and by heteroexchange with external GABA[2]. Isoguvacine at a concentration of 50 μM blocks the seizure like events in 2 out of 6 organotypic hippocampal slice cultures. Isoguvacine inhibits the low magnesium induced seizure like events dose dependently[3].

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (12.71 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (12.71 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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.

Kinase Assay
[1]

The assay for 3H-Isoguvacine binding is carried out as follows: membranes suspended in Tris-citrate buffer pH 7.1 are incubated at 4°C for 10 min with 8 nM 3H-Isoguvacine. Identical samples are incubated in the presence of cold 0.5 mM GABA or 10 μM cold isoguvacine. The assay is terminated by centrifugation for 10 min at 4°C in a micro-centrifuge. The supernatants are rapidly aspirated and the surface of the pellets washed (2x) with ice-cold buffer. The pellet is resuspended in I00 μL of 0.1% Triton and placed in a scintillation vial. The assay tube is washed with I00 μL of distilled water and the wash added to the vial along with 10 ml of PCS: xylene (2:1). Counting efficiency is determined to be 40-45% in a Beckman liquid scintillation counter. Specific binding is defined as those radioactive cpm of bound 3H-Isoguvacine that are displaced by excess cold isoguvacine or GABA[1].

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.
