Product Description

PLX5622 is a novel and highly selective CNS-penetrant CSF1R inhibitor, that has the potential to be used for extended and specific microglial elimination, preceding and during pathology development. Myeloid cells express a large number of risk genes for the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) either exclusively or highly. The survival of microglia is reliant on the signalling mediated by the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R).

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
CSF-1R (IC50 = 0.016 μM); FLT3 (IC50 = 0.39 μM); KIT (IC50 = 0.86 μM); AURKC (IC50 = 1 μM); KDR (IC50 = 1.1 μM)
ln Vitro
PLX5622 (1–20 μM; 3 days) efficiently reduces microglia in cerebellar slices while having no effect on oligodendrocytes or astrocytes. After three days at 4 μM, NG2+ or PDGFRα+ cell counts are reduced by 30–40%, and at 20 μM, this number rises to 90–95%. Despite a robust (~95%) depletion of the microglial cells, slices exposed to 1 μM or 2 μM PLX5622 show no reduction of NG2+ or PDGFRα+ OPCs[3].
ln Vivo
PLX5622 (1200 ppm; chow; for 3 weeks or 3 days; adult C57/Bl6 wild type mice) causes approximately 80% and 99% of microglia to be lost after 3 days and 3 weeks of treatment, respectively. The microglia in the cortex, striatum, cerebellum, and hippocampus are reduced in PLX5622 (adult C57/Bl6 wild type mice, 3 months old; fed for 3 weeks)[4].
In a total of 14 days, PLX5622 (50 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once daily for neonatal rats, or twice daily for adult rats) reduces microglia by 80–90% in 3 days and by more than 90% in 7 days. Both adults and neonates experience a > 96% reduction in microglia after 14 days of PLX5622 treatment, while baseline astrocyte quantity is maintained. (Depleting microglia in neonates only requires a single daily injection of 0.65% PLX5622 suspended in 5% dimethyl sulfoxide and 20% Kolliphor RH40 in 0.01 M PBS; twice-daily injections are needed for adult depletion.)[5].
PLX5622 (formulated in AIN-76A standard chow at 1200 mg/kg; for 28 days) reduces microglia throughout the CNS in 14-month-old 5xfAD mice[6].

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • 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

Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
