Biological Activity
α4β2 nAChR
Desformylflustrabromine hydrochloride is a selective agonist of α4β2 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) with a pEC50 of 6.48[1]. ACh-induced currents are potentiated and inhibited by Desformylflustrabromine hydrochloride in the high sensitivity (HS) and low sensitivity (LS) isoform preparations, although Desformylflustrabromine hydrochloride displays a higher potency on the LS isoform (pEC50=6.4±0.2) compare with the HS isoform (pEC50=5.6±0.2). Desformylflustrabromine hydrochloride potentiates ACh-induced responses of wild-type receptors expressed using the HS isoform preparation maximally by 350±20%, which is similar to receptors expressed via the LS isoform preparation (350±30%)[2].

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 (6.99 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 (6.99 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.

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.
Protocol
Receptors expressed via the high sensitivity (HS) isoform preparation are evaluated for Desformylflustrabromine hydrochloride modulation by coapplication of 10 μM ACh with increasing concentrations of Desformylflustrabromine hydrochloride (0.001 to 100 μM). To compare responses from different oocytes, individual responses to Desformylflustrabromine hydrochloride application are normalized to the control responses elicited using either 10 or 100 μM ACh for receptors expressed by the HS or LS isoform preparations, respectively, for both wild-type and mutated receptors. Data are collected from at least four replicate experiments using oocytes obtained from at least two different frogs[2].
