Product Description
SCH 50911, an orally bioactive and selective gamma-aminobutyric acid B GABA(B) receptor blocker (antagonist), binds to GABA(B) receptors with IC50 of 1.1 μM. SCH 50911 antagonizes GABA(B) autoreceptors and increases 3H overflow from electrical stimulation, with IC50 of 3 μM.
SCH-50911 (CAS# 733717-87-8) is a potent and selective γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) B receptor antagonist. Its molecular formula is C₁₁H₂₀Cl₂N₂O₂ and its molecular weight is 283.19 g/mol. It exists as a racemic mixture, with the (S)-isomer being the active enantiomer. SCH-50911 is used in research to study GABA-B receptor function in the central nervous system, particularly its role in learning, memory, anxiety, and drug addiction. It has been shown to block baclofen-induced effects.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of SCH-50911 is the GABA-B receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor that mediates slow inhibitory neurotransmission. It acts as a competitive antagonist at the orthosteric binding site. By blocking GABA-B receptors, it prevents the inhibitory effects of GABA and baclofen, leading to increased neuronal excitability. Its selectivity for GABA-B over GABA-A is high, making it a valuable tool.
ln Vitro
In vitro, SCH-50911 demonstrates potent antagonism of GABA-B receptors. It has an IC₅₀ in the nanomolar range for inhibiting GABA-stimulated [³⁵S]GTPγS binding. It reverses the effects of the GABA-B agonist baclofen in electrophysiological recordings from hippocampal neurons. The compound's activity is characterized in radioligand binding and functional assays, confirming its role as a competitive antagonist.
ln Vivo
In vivo, SCH-50911 has been shown to produce pro-cognitive effects and to modulate anxiety-like behaviors. It can reverse baclofen-induced hypothermia and memory deficits in rodents. It is used to study the involvement of GABA-B receptors in learning and memory, as well as in addiction models where it can reduce the rewarding effects of drugs of abuse. Its effects are dose-dependent and route-dependent.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro receptor binding studies for SCH-50911 measure its affinity for the GABA-B receptor. Radioligand competition assays use [³H]CGP54626 or [¹²⁵I]CGP71872 as the labeled ligand. Membrane preparations from rat brain or cells expressing recombinant GABA-B receptors are used. The compound's Ki value is determined from competition curves. Selectivity over GABA-A is confirmed by lack of binding at high concentrations.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based functional assays for SCH-50911 evaluate its ability to block GABA-B receptor signaling. Cells expressing GABA-B receptors are stimulated with baclofen, and downstream signaling such as inhibition of cAMP accumulation is measured. The compound is added at various concentrations to determine the IC₅₀ for reversing the baclofen effect. These assays are performed in standard cell culture conditions.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for SCH-50911 typically involve rodents. The compound is administered intraperitoneally or orally. Behavioral tests include the Morris water maze for spatial memory, elevated plus maze for anxiety, and conditioned place preference for addiction. Physiological parameters like body temperature are also monitored. The compound's effects are compared to baclofen and other GABA-B modulators.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of SCH-50911 include good brain penetration and oral bioavailability. Its molecular weight is 283.19 g/mol. The compound is soluble in DMSO. Storage conditions are typically at -20°C, protected from moisture. Detailed PK parameters such as half-life and Cmax are available from published studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of SCH-50911 is not extensively reported, but as a research compound, it is intended for non-human use. At higher doses, it may cause convulsions or other excitatory effects due to GABA-B blockade. Standard safety precautions for handling neuroactive compounds should be followed.
