Product Description

Encenicline (EVP-6124; MT-4666) is a novel partial agonist of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. EVP-6124 enhances dopamine, acetylcholine, and glutamate efflux in rat cortex and nucleus accumbens. EVP-6124 improves memory performance by potentiating the acetylcholine response of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Encenicline (EVP-6124) has been substituted for [3H]-MLA (methylaconitine) (Ki=9.98 nM, pIC50=7.65±0.06, n=3) and [125I]-α-bungarotoxin (Ki=4.33 nM, pIC50=8.07±0.04), n=3). By using a [3H]-MLA binding test, encenicline (EVP-6124) was found to be around 300 times more powerful than the natural agonist ACh (Ki=3 μM). At 10 nM, the lowest concentration tested, encenicline hydrochloride inhibits 5-HT3 receptors by 51%. An assessment of human 5-HT2B receptors produced in CHO cells revealed only antagonist action in the rat fundus assay, with an IC50 of 16 μM, and displacement of [3H]-mesoergot (Ki=14 nM). Encenicline (EVP-6124) did not inhibit or activate heteromeric α4β2 nAChR in binding or functional tests, however it did demonstrate selectivity for α7 nAChR[1].
ln Vivo
Ensenilin hydrochloride has an adequate exposure period and strong brain penetration. When rats treated with scopolamine (0.1 mg/kg, ip) were given encenicline hydrochloride (0.3 mg/kg, po), their memory function was greatly restored during the object recognition test (ORT). On this test, memory was not improved by donepezil (0.1 mg/kg) or ensenicline hydrochloride (0.03 mg/kg), however memory was entirely recovered when these sub-effective dosages were coadministered. The spontaneous forgetting test (ORT) demonstrated a 24-hour retention period. The administration of Encenicline hydrochloride (0.3 mg/kg) po resulted in an improvement in memory. Methylaconitine (0.3 mg/kg, ip or 10 μg, icv), a specific α7 nAChR antagonist, prevented this improvement. ..Rat plasma proteins exhibited a moderate binding of encenicline hydrochloride, with a mean fu of 0.11±0.01 (mean±SD), or 11%. Throughout the oral dosage range of 0.1–30 mg/kg, escenicline hydrochloride shows proportionate dose escalation. Tmax was 4 hours for plasma and 2 hours for the brain; however, the concentrations in the brain did not change between 2 and 8 hours. The B:P ratio is 1.7–5.1 during the first eight hours[1]. Encenicline hydrochloride (0.4 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection) reaches peak brain concentrations two hours after delivery and maintains effective concentrations for at least four hours, according to pharmacokinetic studies. Without producing extended wakefulness or increased locomotor activity, encenicline hydrochloride administered to WT mice at ZT0 (0.4 mg/kg ip single dose) significantly elevated the saturation index of NMDAR in slices retrieved 4 hours later [ 2].

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
