Product Description
ML401 is a potent chemical probe that selectively antagonizes EBI2 (known also as GPR183) with IC50 of 1.03 nM. ML401 showed activity in a chemotaxis assay (IC50=6.24 nM). ML401 displays good stability and is non-cytotoxic.
ML401 (CAS 1597489-14-9) is a potent, selective small-molecule antagonist of the Epstein-Barr virus-induced gene 2 (EBI2) receptor, also known as GPR183. It is a chemical probe used to explore the in vivo effects of EBI2 inhibition in immune cell trafficking and related biological processes.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
EBI2 ( IC50 = 1.03 nM )
ML401 selectively targets the EBI2 (GPR183) receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor involved in immune cell trafficking and B-cell migration. It acts as a functional antagonist with an IC₅₀ of 1.03 nM for receptor binding and displays activity in chemotaxis assays with an IC₅₀ of 6 nM.
ln Vitro
ML401 exhibits no toxicity (>50 μM), and it is non-cytotoxic in MTT in both LnCap and IMR-32 cells (>50 μM) in immortalized Fa2-N4 human hepatocytes[1].
In vitro, ML401 shows potent antagonism of the EBI2/GPR183 receptor with an IC₅₀ of 1.03 nM. It displays activity in chemotaxis assays with an IC₅₀ of 6.24 nM. The compound exhibits a clean profile in selectivity panels and shows no significant cytotoxicity at effective concentrations.
ln Vivo
ML401 exhibits extremely good stability in mouse and human plasma[1].
In vivo activity data for ML401 is limited in publicly available sources. The compound has been developed as a chemical probe to explore the in vivo effects of EBI2 inhibition. It exhibits excellent rodent pharmacokinetics, making it a valuable tool for in vivo studies of EBI2 function.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cellular receptor binding assays for ML401 involve radioligand displacement using membrane preparations expressing the human EBI2/GPR183 receptor. Membranes are incubated with a radiolabeled EBI2 ligand and varying concentrations of ML401. Bound radioactivity is measured by filtration, and IC₅₀ values are calculated from competition binding curves.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular experiments include chemotaxis assays to assess functional antagonism of EBI2. Cells expressing EBI2 are placed in transwell chambers with a chemoattractant and varying concentrations of ML401. Migrated cells are counted, and IC₅₀ values for inhibition of chemotaxis are calculated. Cytotoxicity is assessed using standard cell viability assays.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for ML401 involve administration to rodents to study the effects of EBI2 inhibition on immune cell trafficking and related biological processes. The compound exhibits excellent rodent pharmacokinetics and can be used to explore the in vivo role of EBI2 in various disease models.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
ML401 exhibits excellent rodent pharmacokinetics, making it suitable for in vivo studies. The compound has a molecular weight of 419.7 g/mol (C₂₀H₂₀BrClN₂O). It is soluble in DMSO (10 mM) and is typically formulated for in vivo administration. Storage at -20°C is recommended.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
ML401 shows no significant cytotoxicity at effective concentrations. As a selective EBI2/GPR183 antagonist, it is expected to have on-target effects related to immune function. The compound is for research use only and should be handled with appropriate safety precautions.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 10.4~42 mg/mL (24.8~100.1 mM)
Ethanol: ~4 mg/mL
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1.04 mg/mL (2.48 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (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 10.4 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 1.04 mg/mL (2.48 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 10.4 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*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.

  • 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
