Product Description
TCN 213 is a selective, surmountable, glycine-dependent GluN1/GluN2A NMDAR antagonist (inhibitor) with IC50s of 0.55, 3.5, and 40 μM in the presence of 75, 750, and 7500 nM glycine, respectively. TCN 213 may be utilized to pharmacologically monitor the switching of NMDAR expression in developing cortical neurons.
TCN 213 is a selective, surmountable, and glycine-dependent antagonist of the NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartic acid) receptor, with selectivity for GluN1/GluN2A (formally NR1/NR2A) subunit-containing receptors over GluN1/GluN2B (formally NR1/NR2B)-containing receptors. The compound acts as an antagonist at the glycine modulatory site of the NMDA receptor, and its inhibitory activity is dependent on the concentration of glycine present. In the presence of 75, 750, and 7500 nM glycine, TCN 213 exhibits IC50 values of 0.55, 3.5, and 40 μM, respectively, demonstrating that its potency decreases as glycine concentration increases. This glycine-dependent antagonism is characteristic of compounds that bind to the glycine site of the NMDA receptor. The compound has a pIC50 of 5.4 for GluN1/GluN2A receptors. TCN 213 is used as a pharmacological tool to study the role of GluN2A-containing NMDA receptors in various physiological and pathological processes, including synaptic plasticity, learning, memory, and neurological disorders. It can be used to pharmacologically monitor the switch in NMDAR expression in developing cortical neurons. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use and is strictly for research purposes.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
GluN1/GluN2A NMDAR 0.55-40 μM (IC50)
GluN1/GluN2A (NR1/NR2A) NMDA receptor. TCN 213 is a selective antagonist at the glycine modulatory site of GluN2A-containing NMDA receptors.
ln Vitro
NMDA-evoked currents in neurons transfected with GluN2A subunits are inhibited by TCN 213 (30 µM)[1].
TCN 213 is a selective, surmountable, glycine-dependent GluN1/GluN2A NMDAR antagonist. It exhibits IC50 values of 0.55 μM, 3.5 μM, and 40 μM in the presence of 75, 750, and 7500 nM glycine, respectively. The compound shows selectivity for GluN1/GluN2A (pIC50 = 5.4) over GluN1/GluN2B-containing receptors. As a glycine-dependent antagonist, its potency decreases as glycine concentration increases, which is characteristic of glycine site antagonists.
ln Vivo
No detailed in vivo activity data are publicly available for TCN 213. As a selective GluN2A antagonist, its in vivo effects would be expected to be related to modulation of GluN2A-containing NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission. GluN2A-containing NMDA receptors are involved in various physiological processes, including synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory. The compound could be used in animal models to study the role of GluN2A in neurological disorders.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro receptor binding assays for TCN 213 are performed to evaluate its affinity for the NMDA receptor glycine site. Radioligand binding studies using membrane preparations from cells expressing GluN1/GluN2A or GluN1/GluN2B receptors are conducted. The compound's ability to displace a specific radiolabeled glycine site ligand is measured to calculate its binding affinity. The selectivity of TCN 213 for GluN2A over GluN2B is confirmed by comparing its activity at both receptor subtypes.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays are conducted using cells expressing recombinant GluN1/GluN2A or GluN1/GluN2B NMDA receptors. The cells are treated with TCN 213 in the presence of varying concentrations of glycine, and receptor activity is measured by assessing downstream signaling events such as calcium mobilization or electrophysiological responses. The glycine-dependent nature of the antagonism is characterized by determining the IC50 at different glycine concentrations.
Animal Protocol
In vivo studies would be conducted in animal models to evaluate the effects of TCN 213 on NMDA receptor-mediated processes. The compound could be administered via various routes, and its effects on synaptic plasticity, learning, memory, and neurological disorders could be assessed. However, no specific in vivo data are publicly available for this compound.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
No detailed pharmacokinetic data are publicly available for TCN 213. As a research compound, its ADME properties would be characterized in standard preclinical studies to guide in vivo experiments. The compound's ability to cross the blood-brain barrier is a key parameter for its use in CNS research.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No specific toxicity data are publicly available for TCN 213. As an NMDA receptor antagonist, its toxicity profile would be expected to be related to its mechanism of action. Excessive NMDA receptor inhibition can impair synaptic plasticity and cognitive function.
