Description

UMB68 sodium is a selective GHB receptor ligand. UMB68 sodium displaces [3H]NCS-382 with an IC50 of 38 nM in rat cerebrocortical membranes. UMB68 sodium has no significant affinity at GABAB receptors, cannot be metabolized to GABA-active compounds[1].

IC50 & Target

GHB receptor[1]

In Vitro

UMB68 inhibits [3H]NCS382 (16 nM) binding to the rat cerebrocortical membranes, with an IC50 of 38 nM compared with 25 μM for GHB[1].
UMB68 shows no affinity (IC50 >100 μM) at GABA(A) or GABA(B) receptors[1].

In Vivo

UMB68 (320-1778 mg/kg; i.p.) decreases markedly lever pressing in rats[1].

Animal Model: Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g) are carried out discrimination training[1]
Dosage: 320, 660, 1000, 1778 mg/kg
Administration: I.p. injection
Result: Caused vehicle-lever responding up to a dose (1778 mg/kg) that decreased markedly or eliminated lever pressing.

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.
