| Targets |
The primary molecular target of (RS)-AMPA monohydrate is the AMPA subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors (AMPARs), which it activates as a potent agonist without interfering with binding sites for kainic acid or NMDA receptors.

| ln Vitro |
(RS)-AMPA monohydrate (10-3-10-4 M) causes the brainstem and spinal cord of cultivated rats to become depolarized. Although the effects of (RS)-AMPA monohydrate on depolarization differ greatly amongst neurons, it appears that the effects are dose-dependent. Applying (RS)-AMPA monohydrate at 10-5 M resulted in a very little depolarization (3–7 mV), however at 10–4 M, the depolarization's magnitude varied from 4–33 mV. The rate at which spontaneously firing neurons fire is also increased by (RS)-AMPA monohydrate, and quiet cells occasionally have short action potential bursts. Without impacting NMDA receptors, (RS)-AMPA monohydrate depolarizes the body by activating glutamate/quilamate receptors [1].
In cultured rat spinal and brainstem neurons, (RS)-AMPA monohydrate (10⁻⁵-10⁻⁴ M) induces dose-dependent depolarizations (3-7 mV at 10⁻⁵ M; 4-33 mV at 10⁻⁴ M), increases discharge rates of spontaneously firing neurons, and evokes short action potential bursts in silent cells by activating glutamate/quisqualate receptors without affecting NMDA receptors. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Binding assays for (RS)-AMPA monohydrate are typically performed using radiolabeled [³H]AMPA with rat brain membrane preparations or recombinant AMPA receptors; a standard saturation binding protocol involves incubating membranes with varying concentrations of [³H]AMPA (e.g., 5-100 nM) at 0-4°C for 60 minutes, with non-specific binding determined in the presence of excess unlabeled AMPA or L-glutamate.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for (RS)-AMPA monohydrate are conducted using primary neuronal cultures; a representative protocol involves dissociating embryonic rat brainstem cells (E14), culturing them for 7-10 days, then treating with (RS)-AMPA monohydrate at concentrations ranging from 10⁻⁵ to 10⁻⁴ M for 3 days at different developmental stages, followed by cell survival assessment via counting gamma-enolase-positive neurons.

*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.
