Product Description
ZZL-7 is a fast-acting antidepressant. ZZL-7 acts by disrupting the interaction between the serotonin transporter (SERT) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN). ZZL-7 can easily cross the BBB (blood-brain barrier) and may be utilized in the study of major depressive disorder (MDD).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Serotonin transporter (SERT) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) interaction
ln Vitro
The quantity of SERT-nNOS complex is considerably reduced when grown 293T cells transfected with nNOS and SERT are incubated with ZZL-7 (1.0 μM) for two hours[1].
ln Vivo
Two hours after treatment, in vivo electrophysiology in SERT-Cre mice shows a substantial increase in the firing frequency of serotonergic neurons caused by ZZL-7 (10 mg/kg, intraperitoneally). ZZL-7 shortens the duration of immobility in wild-type mice[1]. Two hours after treatment, intragastric injection of ZZL-7 (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg; once) causes dose-dependent antidepressant-like behaviors[1]. Two hours after treatment, chronic unpredictable moderate stress (CMS)-induced depression behaviors are reversed by ZZL-7 (10 mg/kg; intraperitoneal administration)[1].
Enzyme Assay
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is one of the most common mental disorders. We designed a fast-onset antidepressant that works by disrupting the interaction between the serotonin transporter (SERT) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN). Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CMS) selectively increased the SERT-nNOS complex in the DRN in mice. Augmentation of SERT-nNOS interactions in the DRN caused a depression-like phenotype and accounted for the CMS-induced depressive behaviors. Disrupting the SERT-nNOS interaction produced a fast-onset antidepressant effect by enhancing serotonin signaling in forebrain circuits. We discovered a small-molecule compound, ZZL-7, that elicited an antidepressant effect 2 hours after treatment without undesirable side effects. This compound, or analogous reagents, may serve as a new, rapidly acting treatment for MDD [1].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: SERT-Cre mice[1]
Doses: 10 mg/kg
Route of Administration: ip; once
Experimental Results: Dramatically increased firing frequency of serotonergic neurons 2 hrs (hours) after treatment in vivo electrophysiology in SERT-Cre mice.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 250 mg/mL (1023.37 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.51 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.51 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*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.

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)
