Product Description
NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base (compound 8) is a potent inhibitor of the NMDAR/TRPM4 interaction interface. NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base has neuro-protective (neuro-protection) activity. NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base prevents NMDA-induced cell death and mitochondrial dysfunction in hippocampal neurons with IC50 of 2.1 μM. NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base protects mice from MCAO-induced brain injury and NMDA-induced retinal ganglion cell loss.
NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base (CAS 1353979-43-7), also known as Brophenexin free base (compound 8), is a potent inhibitor of the NMDAR/TRPM4 interaction interface. It has a molecular formula of C11H17BrN2 and a molecular weight of 257.17. The compound shows neuroprotective activity by preventing NMDA-induced cell death and mitochondrial dysfunction in hippocampal neurons, with an IC50 of 2.1 μM. It protects mice from MCAO-induced brain damage and NMDA-induced retinal ganglion cell loss.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Brophenexin free base targets the NMDAR/TRPM4 interaction interface. NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are ionotropic glutamate receptors involved in excitatory neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity. TRPM4 is a Ca2+-activated non-selective cation channel. The interaction between NMDAR and TRPM4 is involved in excitotoxicity, a process that contributes to neuronal death in stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. By inhibiting this interaction, the compound prevents NMDA-induced cell death and mitochondrial dysfunction.
ln Vitro
The interaction between GluN2A and GluN2B with TRPM4 is reduced in a dose-dependent manner by NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base (compound 8) (0-10 μM) [1]. NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base preserves NMDAR's transcription-promoting activity induced by synaptic activity while blocking the CREB shutdown pathway, ERK1/2 activation, and IEG induction [1].
In vitro, Brophenexin free base prevents NMDA-induced cell death and mitochondrial dysfunction in hippocampal neurons, with an IC50 of 2.1 μM. It shows neuroprotective activity in neuronal cell cultures. The compound inhibits the NMDAR/TRPM4 interaction, thereby reducing excitotoxic damage. It has been studied for its potential in treating brain injuries and neurodegenerative diseases. However, detailed IC50 values against other targets are not extensively reported.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Brophenexin free base protects mice from MCAO-induced brain damage and NMDA-induced retinal ganglion cell loss. These effects demonstrate the compound's neuroprotective activity in animal models of stroke and excitotoxic injury. The compound shows potential for treating conditions involving NMDA receptor-mediated excitotoxicity, such as ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative diseases. However, specific dosing regimens and detailed efficacy data are limited.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base are not extensively reported. The compound's activity is typically assessed in functional cellular assays rather than direct binding assays. For TRPM4 channel inhibition, patch-clamp electrophysiology can be used to measure TRPM4 currents in HEK293 cells expressing TRPM4. Cells are voltage-clamped, and currents are elicited by voltage ramps or steps in the presence of intracellular Ca2+. The compound (1-100 μM) is applied extracellularly, and current inhibition is measured.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base use primary hippocampal neurons or neuronal cell lines. Cells are cultured in Neurobasal medium with B27 supplement and treated with various concentrations of the compound (typically 0.1-100 μM) for 1-2 hours before NMDA exposure (100 μM, 10 minutes). Cell death is assessed by LDH release or propidium iodide staining 24 hours after NMDA exposure. Mitochondrial dysfunction is assessed by MTT assay or JC-1 staining for mitochondrial membrane potential.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies with NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base use mouse models of brain injury. In the MCAO (middle cerebral artery occlusion) model, mice undergo transient or permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. The compound is administered intraperitoneally at doses of 1-10 mg/kg immediately after reperfusion. Infarct volume is assessed by TTC staining 24 hours after MCAO. In the NMDA-induced retinal ganglion cell loss model, NMDA is injected intravitreally, and the compound is administered systemically. Retinal ganglion cell survival is assessed by immunohistochemistry.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base are not extensively reported. The compound has a molecular weight of 257.17 and is soluble in DMSO. Specific PK parameters such as oral bioavailability, half-life, and brain penetration are not detailed. As a small molecule, it is expected to have moderate lipophilicity and potential for central nervous system penetration. The compound is typically administered intraperitoneally in animal studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of NMDAR/TRPM4-IN-2 free base is not extensively reported. As a neuroprotective agent targeting excitotoxicity, it is expected to have a favorable safety profile. The compound is for research use only and not for human therapeutic use. Standard toxicity studies would include acute toxicity in rodents and cytotoxicity assays in neuronal and non-neuronal cell lines. No specific genotoxicity or cardiotoxicity data are reported.
