| Targets |
N-Desmethyl Pimavanserin targets the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, acting as an inverse agonist/antagonist. Pimavanserin, the parent drug, is a selective inverse agonist of the 5-HT2A receptor with pIC50 and pKd of 8.73 and 9.3, respectively. This metabolite retains high affinity for the 5-HT2A receptor and is critical for the therapeutic effects in neurological and psychiatric disorders.

| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for N-Desmethyl Pimavanserin typically involve radioligand binding studies using membrane preparations expressing the 5-HT2A receptor. The receptor is incubated with increasing concentrations of the compound and a fixed concentration of a radiolabeled 5-HT2A ligand. Bound and free radioligand are separated by filtration, and radioactivity is measured by scintillation counting. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves, and Ki values are derived using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell-based assays, cells expressing the 5-HT2A receptor are cultured and treated with N-Desmethyl Pimavanserin at various concentrations. Receptor activation or inhibition is measured by quantifying intracellular calcium mobilization or other downstream signaling pathways. The compound's inverse agonist activity can be assessed by measuring its ability to reduce constitutive receptor activity. Cell viability is assessed by standard assays such as MTT.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.03 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
