mAChR M5 (muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M5).
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
ML381 is a highly selective mAChR M5 orthosteric antagonist with an IC50 of 450 nM and a Ki of 340 nM. It has no inhibitory activity on mAChR M4 (IC50 > 30 µM). The compound is centrally nervous system penetrant. ML381 is unstable in rat plasma and can be mainly used as a molecular probe for in vitro and electrophysiological studies. It has overall acceptable DMPK properties in rat pharmacodynamic studies but poor metabolic stability.
|
| ln Vivo |
The ideal use for ML381 (0.2 mg/kg; iv; single) is as an external/electrophysiological probe is because it contributes to poor stability and potential wastewater disposal in the tray, while having an overall DMPK profile in pesticide pharmacodynamic research.
ML381 has overall acceptable DMPK properties in rat pharmacodynamic studies but poor metabolic stability and undergoes amide hydrolysis in plasma. The compound is best suited as a molecular probe for in vitro and electrophysiological studies. It is centrally nervous system penetrant. Further optimization would be needed to improve metabolic stability for in vivo studies. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro receptor binding assay for mAChR M5 antagonism uses membrane preparations from cells expressing recombinant human mAChR M5. ML381 is incubated with the receptor preparation and a radiolabeled mAChR ligand (e.g., [3H]NMS) at varying concentrations (typically 0.1 nM to 100 µM). After incubation, bound and free radioactivity are separated by filtration. The Ki is calculated from competition binding curves. Selectivity is assessed by profiling against other mAChR subtypes (M1-M4).
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays are performed using cells expressing recombinant mAChR M5 (e.g., CHO cells). Cells are treated with ML381 at concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM to 100 µM for 30-60 minutes. Receptor antagonism is assessed by measuring inhibition of agonist (e.g., acetylcholine or carbachol)-induced calcium mobilization or IP3 accumulation. The IC50 is calculated from dose-response curves. For electrophysiological studies, the effect of ML381 on M5-mediated currents is measured using patch-clamp techniques in oocytes or neuronal cells.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: SD (SD (Sprague-Dawley)) rat[1]. Acupuncture[1].
Doses: 0.2 mg/kg Route of Administration: intravenous; single. Experimental Results: 1.19 pharmacokinetic/PK/PK parameters of ML381 in SD (SD (Sprague-Dawley)) rats [1]. IV (0.2 mg/kg) Liver microsomes CLint (mL min-1 kg-1) 770 Predicted CLhep (mL min-1 kg-1) 64 fbrain 0.14 Cbrain/Cplasma (Kp*) 0.58 *Kp value determined at 0.25 hrs (hrs (hours)) After 0.2 mg/kg IV dose (n=2). In vivo animal model data for ML381 is limited due to its instability in rat plasma. The compound has overall acceptable DMPK properties in rat pharmacodynamic studies but poor metabolic stability and undergoes amide hydrolysis in plasma. It is best suited as a molecular probe for in vitro and electrophysiological studies. For in vivo studies, the compound would need to be administered via routes that avoid first-pass metabolism or with metabolic stabilization strategies. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
ML381 has a molecular weight of 379.42 g/mol and molecular formula C21H21N3O4. It is centrally nervous system penetrant. The compound is unstable in rat plasma and undergoes amide hydrolysis. It is soluble in DMSO and should be stored as a powder at -20°C. Pharmacokinetic parameters such as oral bioavailability, plasma half-life, and tissue distribution have been characterized but show poor metabolic stability. The compound is typically used in in vitro assays at concentrations ranging from nanomolar to low micromolar.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No detailed toxicity data is publicly available for ML381. As a research compound, it is not intended for human use and has not undergone formal toxicological evaluation. Standard preclinical safety assessments for mAChR antagonists would typically include selectivity profiling against a panel of mAChR subtypes and related GPCRs, hERG channel inhibition for cardiac safety, and CYP450 enzyme inhibition for drug-drug interaction potential. The compound is supplied as a solid and should be stored desiccated at -20°C.
