Product Description
TCS 46b (Compound 46b) is a potent, selective, orally bioactive NMDA NR1A/2B receptor blocker (antagonist) with IC50 of 5.3 nM. TCS 46b is a reagent for click chemistry. It has Alkyne groups and could undergo CuAAc (copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction) with compounds bearing Azide groups.
TCS-46b (CAS#: 302799-86-6), also known as TCS 46b, is a potent, selective, and orally active NMDA NR1A/2B receptor antagonist. It has the molecular formula C22H23N3O and a molecular weight of 345.44. TCS-46b has an IC50 of 5.3 nM for NR1A/2B receptor subtypes, with IC50 values of 35,000 nM for NR1A/2A and >100,000 nM for NR1A/2C, demonstrating high selectivity for the NR2B subunit.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
TCS-46b targets the NMDA receptor, specifically the NR1A/2B subtype. It is a subtype-selective NR1A/2B NMDA receptor antagonist with an IC50 of 5.3 nM. It exhibits high selectivity for NR1A/2B over NR1A/2A (IC50 = 35,000 nM) and NR1A/2C (IC50 > 100,000 nM). By selectively blocking NR2B-containing NMDA receptors, TCS-46b modulates glutamatergic neurotransmission.
ln Vitro
In vitro, TCS-46b is a potent, selective NMDA NR1A/2B receptor antagonist with an IC50 of 5.3 nM. It exhibits high selectivity for NR1A/2B over other NMDA receptor subtypes. These in vitro properties make TCS-46b a valuable tool for studying NR2B-containing NMDA receptor function and its role in neurological and psychiatric disorders.
ln Vivo
TCS 46b (Compound 46b; 10 and 30 mg/kg; po or ip; once) potentiates the effects of levodopa in 6-OHDA lesions [1].
In vivo, TCS-46b is an orally active NMDA NR1A/2B receptor antagonist. Its selectivity for NR2B-containing NMDA receptors suggests potential for treating neurological and psychiatric disorders without the side effects associated with non-selective NMDA receptor antagonists. However, detailed in vivo efficacy data are limited in publicly available sources.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro receptor binding assay for TCS-46b involves measuring its binding affinity to NMDA receptor subtypes. The compound is incubated with membranes expressing NR1A/2B, NR1A/2A, or NR1A/2C receptors in the presence of a radiolabeled ligand (e.g., [3H]MK-801 or [3H]ifenprodil). Binding affinity (IC50 or Ki) is determined using competition binding assays. Functional antagonism can be assessed by measuring NMDA-induced calcium influx or electrophysiological responses in cells expressing the receptor subtypes.
Cell Assay
The in vitro cell-based assay for TCS-46b involves culturing cells expressing NMDA receptor subtypes (e.g., NR1A/2B, NR1A/2A, NR1A/2C) and treating them with the compound to assess effects on receptor function. Cells are treated with TCS-46b at various concentrations in the presence of NMDA and glycine. Receptor activity is measured by assessing calcium influx using fluorescent calcium indicators (e.g., Fluo-4) or by measuring downstream signaling. Selectivity for NR2B-containing receptors is confirmed by comparing IC50 values across subtypes. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Sprague−Dawley rat, 6-hydroxydopamine injury (6-OHDA) rat model [1]
Doses: 10 and 30 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Oral or intraperitoneal (ip) injection once
Experimental Results: L was shown in this model -The effect of DOPA is Dramatically enhanced.
In vivo animal studies for TCS-46b have not been extensively reported. If conducted, such studies might involve mouse or rat models of neurological or psychiatric disorders, such as pain, depression, or Parkinson's disease. TCS-46b would be administered orally at various doses, and behavioral, biochemical, and histological endpoints would be assessed. Standard protocols for these models would be employed. No specific data are available.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
TCS-46b is an orally active small molecule with favorable pharmacokinetic properties. It has a molecular weight of 345.44 and a molecular formula of C22H23N3O. The compound is soluble in DMSO and can be formulated for in vivo administration. Detailed PK parameters such as half-life, Cmax, and bioavailability are not available from publicly accessible sources but are expected to be characterized in preclinical studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of TCS-46b has not been systematically evaluated. As a selective NR2B-containing NMDA receptor antagonist, its primary safety concerns would relate to on-target effects on glutamatergic neurotransmission. Standard toxicology assessments would include acute and sub-chronic toxicity studies in rodents, with endpoints including clinical signs, body weight, clinical pathology, and histopathology. No specific toxicity data are available.
