Product Description
VU6008055 is a selective muscarinic acetylcholine receptor type 4 (mAChR4) activator that can cross the blood-brain barrier and is orally effective, with a human EC50 value of 73.4 nM. VU6008055 enhances mAChR4 receptor activity in the presence of acetylcholine, but has no activity against mAChR1, mAChR3, or mAChR5. VU6008055 can be used in research on schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
VU6008055 significantly enhanced acetylcholine-induced calcium mobilization in CHO cells expressing human M4, with an EC50 of 73.4 nM and a maximum response of 91% of the maximum response of acetylcholine[1]. VU6008055 also significantly enhanced acetylcholine-induced calcium mobilization in CHO cells expressing rat M4, with an EC50 of 19.5 nM and a maximum response of 81% of the maximum response of acetylcholine[1]. VU6008055 did not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 at concentrations up to 15 μM, and did not cause time-dependent CYP inhibition[1]. VU6008055 did not form active intermediates/metabolites in human liver microsomes[1]. VU6008055 (10 μM) had no significant inhibitory activity on cardiac ion channels[1]. VU6008055 (4 h) showed moderate metabolic turnover in human hepatocytes, and low to high metabolic turnover in other preclinical animal models, and formed two major metabolites (MT4 and MT5) in humans[1].
ln Vivo
VU6008055 (0.1–10 mg/kg; orally) dose-dependently blocked amphetamine-induced hyperactivity in male Sprague-Dawley rats, with the lowest effective dose being 0.3 mg/kg and up to 63% reversing hyperactivity at 10 mg/kg [1]. VU6008055 (0.3–3 mg/kg; orally) attenuated MK-801-induced hyperactivity in male Sprague-Dawley rats [1]. VU6008055 (3 mg/kg; orally; twice daily for 7 days) did not induce tolerance to antipsychotic-like activity in male Sprague-Dawley rats and reversed approximately 50.6% of amphetamine-induced hyperactivity [1]. VU6008055 (0.3–30 mg/kg; orally) had only a slight interfering effect on conditioned avoidance responses in male Wistar-Han rats at high doses (30 mg/kg) and no significant effect at low doses [1]. VU6008055 (1–10 mg/kg; orally) dose-dependently blocked amphetamine-induced brain activation in male Sprague-Dawley rats [1]. VU6008055 (0.1–10 mg/kg; orally) dose-dependently increased high-frequency gamma wave power in awake male Sprague-Dawley rats, which is a marker of EEG arousal [1].

Experimental Results: The dose-dependent increase in cerebral blood volume (CBV) induced by amphetamine in the putamen caudate, nucleus accumbens, prefrontal cortex, cingulate cortex, dorsal medial nucleus of the thalamus, and ventroposterolateral/ventroposteromedial nucleus of the thalamus was attenuated. No significant CBV response was observed when administered alone.

Note: Please be aware that the above formulations are for reference only. InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.6352 mL 13.1759 mL 26.3518 mL
5 mM 0.5270 mL 2.6352 mL 5.2704 mL
10 mM 0.2635 mL 1.3176 mL 2.6352 mL

*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
