Ro 25-6981 is a potent, selective and activity-dependent NR2B subunit specific NMDA receptor antagonist. Ro 25-6981 shows anticonvulsant and anti-parkinsonian activity. Ro 25-6981 has the potential for the research of parkinson's disease (PD).

The free form of the compound is prone to instability, it is advisable to consider the stable salt form (Ro 25-6981 Maleate) that retains the same biological activity.

In Vivo

Ro 25-6981 (0.39-12.5 mg/kg; i.p.) induces contraversive rotations in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-lesioned rats without stimulating locomotion in normal rats[1].
Ro 25-6981 (1,3 mg/kg; i.p.) exhibits age- and activation-dependent anticonvulsant action at early postnatal development in rats[2].
Ro 25-6981 (800 µg; intrathecal injection) shows significant analgesic effects on incision pain in rats and effectively attenuated postoperative hyperalgesia[3].

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

Animal Model: 6-OHDA-lesioned rats[1]
Dosage: 0.39-12.5 mg/kg
Administration: I.p.
Result: Dose-dependently induced contraversive tight nose-to-tail rotations, and induced a weak ipsiversive circling response indicating a mild unspecific stimulatory action of the compound.
Animal Model: Male albino rats of Wistar strain[2]
Dosage: 1, 3 mg/kg
Administration: I.p.
Result: Caused a significant decrease of N1–P2 amplitude at higher stimulation intensities AT 3 mg/kg, and exhibited age- and activation-dependent anticonvulsant action at early postnatal development.

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 (7.36 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 (7.36 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.
