Product Description
Nelonemdaz (Salfaprodil free base) is an NR2B-selective and noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor blocker (antagonist) and a free radical scavenger. Nelonemdaz has excellent neuro-protective (neuro-protection) effects against NMDA- and free radical-induced cell death.
Nelonemdaz (CAS#: 640290-67-1), also known as Neu2000 or Salfaprodil free base, is a synthetic derivative of aspirin and sulfasalazine that functions as a dual-action NR2B-selective NMDA receptor antagonist and potent reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger. It is an investigational neuroprotectant. Nelonemdaz has excellent neuroprotection against NMDA- and free radical-induced cell death.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Nelonemdaz targets N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, specifically the NR2B subunit, and acts as a free radical scavenger. It is an NR2B-selective and uncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist. By selectively blocking NR2B-containing NMDA receptors, Nelonemdaz reduces excitotoxicity, a key mechanism of neuronal injury. Additionally, its free radical scavenging activity reduces oxidative stress. This dual mechanism provides neuroprotection against both NMDA- and free radical-induced cell death.
ln Vitro
Nelonemdaz (10-300 μM) exhibits noteworthy neuroprotective properties at dosages as low as 30 μM against 300 μM N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) [1]. In a concentration-dependent manner, nelonemdazl (10-500 μM) suppresses the electrophysiological response of cultured cortical neurons to 300 μM NMDA [1]. Fe2+-induced neurotoxicity can be considerably mitigated by nelonemdaz (0.1–1 μM), even at dosages as low as 0.1–0.3 μM [1]. Nelonemdaz (0.1–1 μM) stops the degradation of neurons and glial cells in cortical cell cultures [1]. It has been observed that nelonemdaz (0-350 μM) efficiently scavenges nitric oxide (IC50=155.8±4.88 μM), hydroxyl radicals (IC50=58.45±1.74 μM), and superoxide radicals (IC50=63.07±1.44 μM) [3]. Nelonemdaz (0.78-12.5 μM) has an IC50 of 2.21±0.11 μM and decreases ROS/RNS production generated by antimycin A in a dose-dependent manner[3]. Malondialdehyde (MDA) production is inhibited by nelonemdaz (0.19-12.5 μM) with an IC50 of 2.72±0.26 μM[3]. Nelonemdaz (0-125 μM) efficiently lowers the lipid peroxidation caused by iron ascorbate (IC50=24.56±0.07 μM)[3].
In vitro, Nelonemdaz acts as an NR2B-selective NMDA receptor antagonist and a potent ROS scavenger. It shows excellent neuroprotection against NMDA- and free radical-induced cell death. The compound is a dual-action neuroprotective agent. Detailed in vitro data are available in the primary literature. Nelonemdaz is a valuable tool for neuroprotection research.
ln Vivo
Nelonemdaz (0.5–20 mg/kg; intravenously) decreases cerebral infarction in a dose-dependent manner within 24 hours following 60 minutes of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) occlusion [1]. Nelonemdaz (5 mg/kg; intravenously) guards against ischemic brain injury to gray tissue and white matter, including axons and myelin [1].
In vivo, Nelonemdaz has been evaluated as an investigational neuroprotectant. It shows neuroprotection against NMDA- and free radical-induced cell death. The compound is a dual-action NR2B-selective NMDA receptor antagonist and free radical scavenger. Further in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize its efficacy and safety profile. The compound is an investigational agent.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro NMDA receptor antagonism assays for Nelonemdaz typically use primary neuronal cultures or cells expressing NR2B-containing NMDA receptors. Cells are cultured in appropriate medium and treated with Nelonemdaz at various concentrations (0.1-100 μM) prior to NMDA exposure. Cell death is assessed by LDH release or MTT assay. Calcium influx is measured using calcium-sensitive dyes. Free radical scavenging activity is assessed by DPPH, ABTS, or ROS assays. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves. Controls include vehicle and known NMDA antagonists.
Cell Assay
For cell-based assays, primary neuronal cultures or neuronal cell lines are cultured in appropriate medium. Cells are seeded in multi-well plates and pre-treated with Nelonemdaz at various concentrations (0.1-100 μM) for 30-60 minutes. Cells are exposed to NMDA or oxidative stress inducers. Cell death is assessed by LDH release, MTT assay, or propidium iodide staining. ROS levels are measured by fluorescent probes. All treatments include vehicle controls and are performed in triplicate.
Animal Protocol
