An agonist of the gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor (GABA) is progabide. When Progabide was injected intraperitoneally at 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg, the corresponding increases in plasma corticosterone levels were 244, 365, and 476% (t=6.44 to 12.55, p<0.01). The dose of progabide (10 mg/kg) had no effect on plasma corticosterone levels (t=0.76, NS). Increases in plasma corticosterone levels at 30 minutes (t=2.625, p<0.05), 60 minutes (t=13.13, p<0.001), and 120 minutes (t=4.07, p<0.01) were significantly produced by 200 mg/kg Progabide. pharmacological injection, but 240 minutes later (t=0.86, NS), the values went back to control. Progabide is administered for 60 minutes to achieve the maximum corticosterone rise (in comparison to matched controls) [1].

| Additional Infomation |
Progabide is a diarylmethane compound. It is an analogue and prodrug of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It is commonly used to treat epilepsy. It has agonistic activity against both GABAA and GABAB receptors. In clinical trials, Progabide has been used to treat Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, clinical depression, and anxiety disorders; however, its efficacy in these diseases is not fully elucidated.
Drug Indications Indications for the treatment of epilepsy. Mechanism of Action Progabide binds to GABAA and GABAB receptors located at the terminals of primary afferent fibers. Binding to GABAA receptors leads to increased affinity of GABA receptors for amino acids, increased chloride ion flux across the terminal membrane, and enhanced presynaptic inhibition. Activation of GABAB receptors delays calcium ion inflow into the terminal, thereby reducing the release of excitatory amino acids and other neurotransmitters. Pharmacodynamics Propapamine is a fatty acid derivative, belonging to the GABA receptor agonist class, and is used to treat epilepsy symptoms. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80： Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 ：Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] Oral Formulations
Oral Formulation 1: Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na (carboxymethylcellulose sodium) Oral Formulation 2: Suspend in 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Example: Take the Oral Formulation 1 (Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na) as an example, if 100 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can first prepare 0.5% CMC Na solution by measuring 0.5 g CMC Na and dissolve it in 100 mL ddH2O to obtain a clear solution; then add 250 mg of the product to 100 mL 0.5% CMC Na solution, to make the suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
