| Targets |
FGIN 1-27 targets the translocator protein (TSPO), also known as the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor (PBR). It binds to TSPO with high affinity (Ki = 5.0 nM). TSPO is a mitochondrial membrane protein involved in cholesterol transport and neurosteroid biosynthesis. By binding to TSPO, FGIN 1-27 stimulates the production of neurosteroids such as allopregnanolone, which have anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and neuroprotective effects. The compound does not bind to GABAA receptors.

| ln Vitro |
FGIN 1-27 is a high-affinity ligand for TSPO (Ki = 5.0 nM). It stimulates neurosteroid biosynthesis by facilitating cholesterol transport into mitochondria. The compound can cross the blood-brain barrier. FGIN 1-27 inhibits the onset of isoniazid-induced convulsions, demonstrating anticonvulsant activity. It also has anxiolytic properties. The compound has been shown to downregulate the expression of RORγt target genes. FGIN 1-27 does not bind to GABAA receptors.

| ln Vivo |
FGIN 1-27 inhibits the onset of isoniazid-induced convulsions in animal models, demonstrating anticonvulsant activity. The compound can cross the blood-brain barrier and stimulate neurosteroid biosynthesis in vivo. It has anxiolytic properties. The compound's ability to increase neurosteroid levels in the brain contributes to its anticonvulsant and anxiolytic effects. Specific dosing regimens and efficacy data would be determined from preclinical studies.

| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro receptor binding assay for FGIN 1-27 typically involves measuring its affinity for TSPO using radioligand binding. Membrane preparations from tissues or cells expressing TSPO are incubated with varying concentrations of FGIN 1-27 (typically 0.001-100 μM) and a radiolabeled ligand such as [3H]PK11195. The binding affinity (Ki) is determined by competition binding analysis. The compound is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in assay buffer. Functional assays involve measuring TSPO-mediated cholesterol transport or neurosteroid production in mitochondrial preparations.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for FGIN 1-27 typically involve treating TSPO-expressing cells (such as glial cells or steroidogenic cells) with the compound at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 10 μM. Neurosteroid production (such as pregnenolone and allopregnanolone) is measured by radioimmunoassay or mass spectrometry. Cellular viability and mitochondrial function are assessed using standard assays. The compound is dissolved in DMSO as a stock solution and diluted in cell culture medium, with DMSO-only treated cells serving as controls.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for FGIN 1-27 typically involve administration to rodents via intraperitoneal or intravenous injection at doses ranging from 0.1 to 10 mg/kg. Anticonvulsant activity is assessed using models such as isoniazid-induced seizures. Anxiolytic effects are evaluated using behavioral tests such as the elevated plus maze or light-dark box. Neurosteroid levels in brain tissue are measured by mass spectrometry. The compound's ability to cross the blood-brain barrier is assessed by measuring brain concentrations.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
FGIN 1-27 has a molecular weight of 436.62 g/mol and formula C28H37FN2O. The compound can cross the blood-brain barrier. It is typically stored at -20°C for powder and -80°C for solvent. The compound is soluble in DMSO and other organic solvents. Detailed PK parameters such as half-life, Cmax, AUC, and bioavailability would require experimental determination. The compound's ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier supports its use in neurological studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for FGIN 1-27 are not extensively reported. The compound is intended for research use only and is not approved for human therapeutic applications. Standard preclinical toxicity assessments would include acute toxicity studies in rodents, repeated-dose toxicity studies, and assessment of off-target effects. The compound's mechanism of action involves neurosteroid biosynthesis, which could have physiological effects at high doses. Appropriate safety precautions should be taken when handling.

*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.
