Description

Tandospirone (SM-3997) is a potent and selective 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist, with a Ki of 27 nM. Tandospirone has anxiolytic and antidepressant activities. Tandospirone can be used for the research of the central nervous system disorders and the underlying mechanisms[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target[1]

5-HT1A Receptor

27 nM (Ki)

In Vitro

Tandospirone is approximately two to three orders of magnitude less potent at 5-HT2, 5-HT1C, α1-adrenergic, α2-adrenergic and dopamine D1 and D2 receptors (Ki values ranging from 1300 to 41000 nM) than 5-HT1A[1].
Tandospirone is essentially inactive at 5-HT1B receptors; 5-HT uptake sites; beta-adrenergic, muscarinic cholinergic, and benzodiazepine receptors[1].
Tandospirone activates postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptor coupled with G-protein (Gi/o), resulting in inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA)-mediated protein phosphorylation and neuronal activity[1].

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

In Vivo

Tandospirone (10-80 mg/kg; i.p.) inhibits freezing behavior in the conditioned fear stress-induced freezing behavior rat model[3].
Tandospirone exhibits the anxiolytic effect dependent on the plasma concentration of at 0.5 hours but not 4 hours[3].

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

Animal Model: Seven-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats (260-300 g), conditioned fear stress-induced freezing behavior rat model[3]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg, 80 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection
Result: Inhibited freezing behavior in a dose-dependent manner.

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 (6.52 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 (6.52 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.
