Description

Befiradol hydrochloride (NLX-112 hydrochloride) is a selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist.

IC50 & Target

5-HT1A Receptor

 

In Vivo

Befiradol (F13640; NLX-112) reduces the activity of dorsal raphe serotonergic neurons at 0.2-18.2 μg/kg, i.v. (cumulative doses; ED50=0.69 μg/kg, i.v.) and increases the discharge rate of 80% of mPFC pyramidal neurons in the same dose range (ED50=0.62 μg/kg, i.v.). Both effects are reversed by the subsequent administration of the 5-HT1A receptor antagonist (±)WAY100635. In microdialysis studies, Befiradol (F13640; NLX-112) (0.04-0.63 mg/kg, i.p.) dose-dependently decreases extracellular 5-HT in the hippocampus and mPFC. Likewise, Befiradol (F13640; NLX-112) (0.01-2.5 mg/kg, i.p.) dose-dependently increases extracellular DA in mPFC, an effect dependent on the activation of postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptors in mPFC. Local perfusion of Befiradol in mPFC (1-1,000 μM) also increases extracellular DA in a concentration-dependent manner. Both the systemic and local effects of Befiradol are prevented by prior (±)WAY100635 administration[1].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.83 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.83 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

 If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.

Animal Administration

Rats[1]
Male albino Wistar rats (230-300 g) are used throughout the study. Rats are anaesthetized with chloral hydrate (400-500 mg/kg, i.p.) or isoflurane. For the experiment with systemic administration of the compounds, saline or (±)WAY100635 are injected s.c., followed, 40 min later, by i.p. administration of saline or Befiradol. For the experiments with local perfusion, saline is injected s.c. and 40 min later, Befiradol (F13640; NLX-112) is added to the perfusion medium for the concentration-response experiment. For the antagonism, (±)WAY100635 (or aCSF) is delivered through the dialysis probe and 40 min later, Befiradol is added to the perfusion medium. Samples are collected for 140 min after administration or beginning of the perfusion of the agonist[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
