Product Description

Dizocilpine Maleate [formerly (+)-MK-801)], the maleate salt of (+)dizocilpine, is a non-competitive antagonist of NMDA (N-Methyl-D-aspartate) receptors with a Kd of 37.2 nM in rat brain membranes. (+)-MK-801 acts as a potent anti-convulsant and likely has dissociative anesthetic properties, but it is not used clinically for this purpose due to the discovery of brain lesions, called Olney's lesions in test rats.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In rat cerebral cortical membranes, [3H]dizocilpine maleate binds with NMDA receptors at a Kd of 37.2±2.7 nM[1]. N-Me-D-Asp-induced current blockade is progressive and long-lasting when dizocilpine maleate is used[3]. The NMDA-induced current is gradually suppressed by dizocilpine maleate. Even when Dizocilpine (MK-801) is applied for an extended period of time in the presence of NMDA, Mg2+ (10 mM) inhibits Dizocilpine from blocking the N-Me-D-Asp-induced current. In outside-out patches, dizocilpine inhibits NMDA-activated single-channel activity[3]. Dizocilpine maleate (less than 500 μM) suppresses LPS-induced microglia activation, which is accompanied by elevated Cox-2 protein expression in BV-2 cells. In BV-2 cells, dococilpine (MK-801; <500 μM) decreases microglial TNF-α production with an EC50 of 400 μM[4].
ln Vivo
In animal modeling, dizocilpine maleate can be used to create models of schizophrenia.

*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.

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
