Description

NV-5138, a leucine analog, is the first selective and orally active brain mTORC1 activator, binding to Sestrin2. NV-5138 is used for antidepressant studies[1][2].

IC50 & Target

mTORC1[1].

In Vivo

NV-5138 is found to be essentially 100% orally bioavailable with an elimination half-life in plasma of ~ 3 h determined following intravenous and oral dosing in rats[1].
NV-5138 (160 mg/kg, po, single dose) rapidly increases levels of phospho-mTOR as well as the downstream targets, phospho-p70S6K1, and phosphor-4EB-P1, in synaptosomal preparations of PFC[2].
NV-5138 (80 mg/kg, po, daily for a total of 7 days) also produces antidepressant effects[2].

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

Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 250-260 g[2].
Dosage: 40, 80, 160 mg/kg.
Administration: PO, single dose (160 mg/kg) or daily for a total of 7 days (40, 80 mg/kg).
Result: Produced antidepressant effects.
Animal Model: Male Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats weighed 250-400 g[1].
Dosage: 1 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg (Pharmacokinetic Design).
Administration: I.V at 1 mg/kg and PO at 5 mg/kg.
Result: Essentially 100% orally bioavailable with an elimination half-life in plasma of ~ 3 h.

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.
