Product Description
1-BCP (Piperonylic acid piperidide) is a centrally active molecule that regulates the gated current of AMPA receptors. 1-BCP is a bioactive molecule that enhances memory.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
AMPA receptor (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor) [1][2]
ln Vitro
- 1-BCP is a centrally active modulator of AMPA receptor-gated currents. In voltage-clamped rat hippocampal neurons, 1-BCP (10, 30 μM) dose-dependently potentiated AMPA-induced inward currents, increasing the peak current amplitude by ~35% (10 μM) and ~60% (30 μM) compared with the control group (detected by patch-clamp technique) [1]
- 1-BCP (1, 10, 100 μM) selectively potentiated AMPA-induced [³H]-norepinephrine release in rat hippocampal slices. At 10 μM, it increased the release by ~40% without affecting kainate or NMDA-induced neurotransmitter release (detected by radioligand assay) [2]
- 1-BCP did not alter the affinity of AMPA for its receptor but prolonged the decay time of AMPA receptor-gated currents, indicating a modulatory effect on receptor desensitization or deactivation [1]
ln Vivo
- 1-BCP exhibited memory-enhancing activity in rats. Behavioral tests (passive avoidance task) showed that intraperitoneal injection of 1-BCP (5, 10 mg/kg) significantly prolonged retention latency compared with the control group, indicating improved memory consolidation [2]
Enzyme Assay
- AMPA receptor-gated current recording: Rat hippocampal neurons were cultured for 7-14 days and voltage-clamped at -60 mV using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. 1-BCP (10, 30 μM) was preincubated with neurons for 5 minutes, followed by application of AMPA (10 μM). Inward currents were recorded, and peak amplitude and decay time were analyzed [1]
- Neurotransmitter release assay: Rat hippocampal slices were prepared and preincubated with [³H]-norepinephrine for 60 minutes. Slices were then treated with 1-BCP (1-100 μM) and stimulated with AMPA (50 μM). The released [³H]-norepinephrine in the supernatant was quantified by liquid scintillation counting [2]
Cell Assay
- Hippocampal neuron culture and patch-clamp assay: Hippocampi were dissected from neonatal rats, dissociated into single neurons, and seeded on poly-L-lysine-coated coverslips. After 7-14 days of culture, neurons were used for patch-clamp recording. 1-BCP was applied to the bath solution, and AMPA-induced currents were measured to evaluate the modulatory effect [1]
- Hippocampal slice neurotransmitter release assay: Rat brains were rapidly removed, and hippocampal slices (400 μm) were prepared. Slices were incubated in oxygenated Krebs-Ringer buffer, loaded with [³H]-norepinephrine, and treated with 1-BCP and AMPA. Radioactivity in the supernatant was counted to determine neurotransmitter release level [2]
Animal Protocol
- Memory enhancement model: Adult rats were randomly divided into control and 1-BCP treatment groups (5, 10 mg/kg). 1-BCP was dissolved in sterile saline and administered via intraperitoneal injection 30 minutes before the training phase of the passive avoidance task. Twenty-four hours after training, the retention test was performed, and retention latency was recorded to assess memory function [2]

Additional Infomation
1,3-Benzadioxopenten-5-yl(1-piperidinyl)methyl ketone is an N-acylpiperidine compound. 1-BCP is a synthetic small molecule compound with central nervous system activity [1][2]. Its core mechanism involves selective regulation of AMPA receptors: enhancing AMPA receptor gating currents and increasing AMPA-induced neurotransmitter release in the hippocampus, thereby enhancing memory [1][2]. 1-BCP is selective for AMPA receptors without affecting other glutamate receptor subtypes (algae receptors, NMDA receptors), suggesting its potential as a tool for studying AMPA receptor function and as a candidate drug for treating memory-related neurological disorders [1][2].

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)
