ZZL-7 is a fast-onset antidepressant agent. ZZL-7 works by disrupting the interaction between the serotonin transporter (SERT) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN). ZZL-7 can cross the blood-brain barrier readily. ZZL-7 can be used for the research of major depressive disorder (MDD).

Description

ZZL-7 is a fast-onset antidepressant agent. ZZL-7 works by disrupting the interaction between the serotonin transporter (SERT) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN). ZZL-7 can cross the blood-brain barrier readily. ZZL-7 can be used for the research of major depressive disorder (MDD)[1].

In Vitro

ZZL-7 (1.0 μM; or 2 h) incubation of the cultured 293T cells transfected with nNOS and SERT, significantly decreases the SERT-nNOS complex level[1].

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

In Vivo

ZZL-7 (10 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) causes significantly increases firing frequency of serotonergic neurons 2 hours after treatment in vivo electrophysiology in SERT-Cre mice. In wild-type mice, ZZL-7 reduces immobility time[1].
Intragastric administration of ZZL-7 (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg; once) produces antidepressant-like behaviors dose dependently 2 hours after treatment[1].
ZZL-7 (10 mg/kg; intraperitoneal administration) reverses chronic unpredictable mild stress (CMS)-induced depressions behaviors 2 hours after treatment[1].

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.51 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.51 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
