Description

AM404, an inhibitor of endocannabinoid reuptake, blocks anandamide transport with IC50 values in the low micromolar range[1]. AM404 is able to relax rat isolated hepatic arteries contracted with Phenylephrine, with a pEC50 value of 7.4 (corresponding to an EC50 of 0.04 μM). Neuroprotective Effect[2].

In Vitro

AM404 reduces C6 glioma cell proliferation with IC50 values of 4.9 μM. AM404 non-specifically inhibit C6 glioma cell proliferation at concentrations used to block the cellular accumulation of the endocannabinoid anandamide[2].

Cell Viability Assay[2]

Cell Line: Rat C6 glioma cells
Concentration: 1, 3, 10 and 30 µM
Incubation Time: 24, 48, 72 and 96 h
Result: Produced a concentration-dependent reduction in cell proliferation that was seen with 24 h of exposure to 10 and 30 µM concentrations and after 48 h at 3 µM. The lowest concentration of AM404 tested, 1 µM, produced a significant, albeit small, reduction in cell proliferation at 72 h.
In Vivo

AM404 (1-5 mg/kg, i.p.) exerts dose-dependent anxiolytic-like effects in the three models: elevated plus maze, defensive withdrawal and separation-induced ultrasonic vocalizations.

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

Animal Model: Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g)[2]
Dosage: 2.5-10 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal (i.p.)
Result: Caused a dose-dependent increase in anandamide levels in prefrontal cortex, hippocampus and thalamus.

Help & FAQs
  • How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

    1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss. 2. Taking 10 μg as an example, first add 20 μL of reconstituted solution provided by MCE and use a pipette to gently resuspend the lyophilized protein until it is fully dissolved.. (For most proteins, the reconstitution solution we provide is sterile water. If a diluent other than water is required, it will be indicated in the product's Certificate of Analysis (COA).). 3. Add an additional 80 μL of buffer/culture medium containing carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% trehalose), and then use a pipette to gently mix until uniform. The final concentration is should not be lower than 100 μg/mL. 4. Aliquot at least 20 μL per tube. 5. After aliquoting, store it frozen at a temperature ranging from -20ºC to -80ºC, and it can be preserved for 3 to 6 months.

  • How should solution-form recombinant proteins be stored?

    1. The product can be stored in its original form and diluted as needed upon use. 2. Alternatively, dilute with a buffer/culture medium containing a carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% alginate), mix well by pipetting, and ensure that

  • Why is it necessary to add carrier proteins?

    Carrier proteins are commonly added to enhance the stability of recombinant proteins, preventing them from adhering to the walls of the container during freezing or thawing processes. Plastic tubes have a certain adsorptive capacity for proteins, which may lead to difficulty in separating the protein from the tube walls, resulting in a decrease in the actual concentration of the protein in the solution and thus affecting its activity. To minimize such losses, it is recommended to add a commonly used carrier protein solution prior to the long-term storage of recombinant protein products.

  • Carrier protein types and options?

    In cases where the carrier protein is not expected to influence the experimental outcomes, an appropriate carrier protein, such as 0.1% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin), 5% HSA (Human Serum Albumin), 10% FBS (Fetal Bovine Serum), or 5% trehalose, can be incorpo
