Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Cyclobenzaprine (MK130) hydrochloride is an orally active 5-HT2 receptor antagonist. Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride acts centrally, providing skeletal muscle relaxation, alleviating muscle spasms, and reducing pain. Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride also possesses antiparasitic activity. Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride holds promise for research in the fields of acute, painful skeletal muscle disorders and infectious diseases.

Biological Activity
|
5-HT2 Receptor |
Cyclobenzaprine (0-50 μM, 72 h) demonstrates a concentration-dependent activity in Leishmania infantum promastigotes growth, with an IC50 value of 14.5 μM[4]. Cyclobenzaprine (0-50 μM, 72 h) reduces the number of intracellular amastigotes in Leishmania infantum-infected macrophages, with an IC50 value of 12.6 μM[4]. Cyclobenzaprine (0-50 μM, 6 h) induces oxidative stress in Leishmania infantum in a concentration- and time-dependent manner[4].

Animal Model:Spinalized Male Wistar rats; Non-spinalized/Intact Male Wistar rats[5]
-
Dosage:0.3, 1.0, 3.0 mg/kg
-
Administration:Intravenous injection (i.v.), single dose
-
Result:Dose-dependently reduced the monosynaptic reflex amplitude in non-spinalized rats, whereas it did not change the monosynaptic reflex amplitude in spinalized rats. Significantly inhibited the effect of the 5-HT2 receptor agonist DOI at the dose of 1 mg/kg, which had significantly increased the monosynaptic reflex in spinalized rats at 5 minutes.

Animal Model:Leishmania infantum-infected BALB/c mice model[3]
-
Dosage:12.32, 24.64 and 49.28 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral gavage (p.o.), once daily for 5 days
-
Result:Was effective in reducing the parasite load by 40.4% and 66.7% in spleen at 24.64 and 49.28 mg/kg, respectively and by 85.6% and 89.3% in liver at 24.64 and 49.28 mg/kg.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.02 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.02 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.
For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:
It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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.
Add each solvent one by one: PBS
Solubility: 110 mg/mL (352.73 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic
