Product Description
PHA 568487 is a selective agonist of the alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α-7 nAchR). PHA 568487 reduces neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. PHA-568487 rapidly crosses the BBB (blood-brain barrier).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
PHA 568487 reduces oxidative stress and phosphorylation of NF-κb p65 while increasing the expression of antioxidant genes. The effects of methyllycaconitine (MLA) are the opposite[2]. PHA raises the expression of NADPH oxidase and antioxidant genes, which are linked to a decrease in NF-kB p65 phosphorylation in macrophages and microglia[3].
ln Vivo
PHA 568487 reduces behavioral dysfunction and neuronal damage in mice that have both ischemic stroke and stroke with a fractured tibia[2]. When administered intraperitoneally (1.25 mg/kg; treated daily), PHA 568487 significantly reduces the volumes of brain infarcts and improves the neurologic outcome in ischemic rats[4].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: C57BL/6J male mice (10-12 weeks old)[2]
Doses: PHA 568487 (PHA; 0.4 and 0.8 mg/kg); Methyllycaconitine (MLA; 4 and 6 mg/kg)
Route of Administration: Injected intraperitoneally (ip) once on day 1, or twice on days 1 and 2, after pMCAO
Experimental Results: Injection of PHA (0.8 mg/kg) and MLA (6 mg/kg) on days 1 and 2 after pMCAO yielded the best effect on infarct volume and behavior tests.

Animal/Disease Models: Adult male SD (Sprague-Dawley) rats (297 6±8.3 g)[4]
Doses: 1.25 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Ip;0.1 mL; treated daily
Experimental Results: demonstrated a significant reduction of the cerebral infarct volumes and an improvement of the neurologic outcome.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 250 mg/mL (618.18 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.08 mg/mL (5.14 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
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 (5.14 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.

Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.14 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (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 corn oil and mix evenly.

5 mM 0.4945 mL 2.4727 mL 4.9455 mL
10 mM 0.2473 mL 1.2364 mL 2.4727 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
