In Vivo

U-69593 (0.16 mg/kg; s.c.) attenuates addictive agent-induced behavioral sensitization in the rat[2].
U-69593 (1, 10, 25 nmol/μL; Microinjection) reduces anxiety and enhances spontaneous alternation memory in mice[3].
U-69593 (0.32 mg/kg; s.c.) decreases acute amphetamine-evoked behaviors and calcium-dependent dialysate levels of dopamine and glutamate in the ventral striatum[4].

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

Animal Model: Rat[2]
Dosage: 0.16 mg/kg
Administration: S.c. (an acute injection of cocaine (20 mg/kg i.p.))
Result: Attenuated the acute and chronic effects of cocaine on locomotor activity and stereotypy.
Animal Model: CD-1 mice[3]
Dosage: 1, 10, 25 nmol/µL
Administration: Microinjection (in the infralimbic cortex (IL)), once every week, 2 weeks
Result: Dose-dependently prolonged transfer-latency (T-L) and produced a dose-dependent anxiolytic behavioural profile, and after 24 h, the mouse were observed small but detectable carry-over effects. In week 2, U-69593 dose-dependently prolonged T/L and produced an anxiolytic behavioural profile in the first EPM (elevated plus-maze) trial, but observed a robust anxiolytic behavioural profile.
Animal Model: 280-350 g, male Wistar rats[4]
Dosage: 0.32 mg/kg
Administration: S.c. (followed 15 min later by an injection of amphetamine (2.5 mg/kg i.p.))
Result: Significantly reduced the amphetamine-stimulated increase in dialysate dopamine levels and blocked the ability of amphetamine to evoke an increase in dialysate glutamate levels.

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.
