ML218 (CID-45115620; ML-218; CID45115620) is a novel, potent and selective T-Type Ca(2+) (Ca(v)3.1, Ca(v)3.2, Ca(v)3.3) inhibitor (Ca(v)3.2, IC(50) = 150 nM in Ca(2+) flux; Ca(v)3.2 IC(50) = 310 nM and Ca(v)3.3 IC(50) = 270 nM, respectively in patch clamp electrophysiology) with good DMPK properties, it displayed acceptable in vivo rat PK and excellent brain levels. Electrophysiology studies in subthalamic nucleus (STN) neurons demonstrated robust effects of ML218 on the inhibition of T-Type calcium current, inhibition of low threshold spike and rebound burst activity. Based on the basal ganglia circuitry in Parkinson's disease (PD), the effects of ML218 in STN neurons suggest a therapeutic role for T-type Ca(2+) channel inhibitors, and ML218 was found to be orally efficacious in haloperidol-induced catalepsy, a preclinical PD model, with comparable efficacy to an A(2A) antagonist, a clinically validated PD target. ML218 proves to be a powerful new probe to study T-Type Ca(2+) function in vitro and in vivo, and freely available.
| ln Vitro |
ML218 demonstrated good free fractions in both rats and humans in plasma protein binding experiments (equilibrium dialysis). ML218 is highly cleared in rats (CLint = 115 mL/min/kg) according to investigations on intrinsic clearance in liver microsomes, whereas it is only weakly to moderately cleared in human liver microsomes (CLint = 12.7 mL/min/kg)[1].

| ln Vivo |
Rats that have been exposed to a 0.75 mg/kg dosage of haloperidol exhibit cataleptic behavior that is reversed by ML218 (0.03-30 mg/kg; oral administration; once; male Sprague-Dawley rats)[1]. Over the whole dose range, the concentrations of ML218 in the free brain and plasma increase in a dose-proportional manner (3 mg/kg: [plasma] = 98 nM, [brain] = 1.66 μM; 10 mg/kg: [plasma] = 282 nM, [brain] = 5.03 μM; 30 mg/kg: 1.2 μM, [brain] = 17.7 μM)[1]. According to noncompartmental pharmacokinetic analysis, the mean residence time (MRT) of ML218 (1 mg/kg, IV) is almost 7 hours, which is in line with its terminal half-life (t1/2 = 7 hours)[1].

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 6.25 mg/mL (16.92 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 62.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL corn oil and mix evenly. (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

| 10 mM | 0.2708 mL | 1.3538 mL | 2.7076 mL |
*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.
Calculation results
Working concentration： mg/mL；
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution： mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation:：Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O，mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
