| Targets |
NSI-189 is a stimulator of neurogenesis of human hippocampus-derived neural stem cells. Its mechanism of action is not fully understood, but it is known to stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells, leading to the formation of new neurons. It is being investigated for a range of conditions, including major depressive disorder (MDD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Alzheimer's disease, and age-related cognitive problems.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, NSI-189 stimulates the neurogenesis of human hippocampus-derived neural stem cells. It promotes the proliferation and differentiation of these cells into neurons. This activity is believed to be the basis for its antidepressant and procognitive effects. It also exhibits neuroprotective effects.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, NSI-189 has shown efficacy in preclinical models of depression and cognitive impairment. It stimulates neurogenesis in the hippocampus, which is thought to be a key mechanism for its antidepressant effects. It exhibits neuroprotective effects in a streptozotocin-induced diabetic mouse model. It is also being investigated for its potential in treating PTSD and age-related cognitive decline.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro neurogenesis assays for NSI-189 are performed using human hippocampus-derived neural stem cells (hNSCs). Cells are cultured in neurobasal medium and treated with varying concentrations of the compound. The number of neurons formed is quantified by immunofluorescence staining for neuronal markers like β-III tubulin or NeuN, and the rate of proliferation is measured.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for NSI-189 are often performed using neural stem cells or neuronal cell lines. Cells are treated with the compound, and the effects on cell proliferation (e.g., by BrdU incorporation) and differentiation (e.g., by measuring the expression of neuronal markers) are assessed.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for NSI-189 have been conducted in rodent models of depression, such as the chronic mild stress model or the forced swim test. The compound is administered orally or intraperitoneally, and its effects on depressive-like behaviors are measured. Its effects on neurogenesis are confirmed by immunohistochemical staining for BrdU and neuronal markers in brain tissue.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).
