Administration of Zuclopenthixol (0.7 and 1.4 mg/kg) significantly elevate MDA level compared to respective controls. Nevertheless, there is no difference between the two dose levels with respect to their effect on rat brain MDA level. Post hoc pairwise comparisons between the means of groups (n=12) receiving different dose levels of Zuclopenthixol reveal that administration of 1.4 mg/kg of Zuclopenthixol significantly reduces GSH level compared to both vehicle-treated and Zuclopenthixol (0.7 mg/kg)-treated animals (P<0.001). Nevertheless, the lower dose of the drug does not affect rat brain GSH level. Animals receiving 0.7 or 1.4 mg/kg of Zuclopenthixol exhibits significantly higher GSH levels than SCO treated animals. Administration of 0.7 mg/kg of Zuclopenthixol significantly elevated GSHPx activity compared to vehicle treated animals[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: ≥ 5 mg/mL (12.47 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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: 2.86 mg/mL (7.13 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.86 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (28.6 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.

Protocol
Mice[1]
Zuclopenthixol (0.025-0.4 mg/kg) is administered acutely or subchronically for 10 days, on agonistic behavior elicited by isolation in male mice. Individually housed mice are exposed to anosmic "standard opponents" 30 min after the drug administration, and encounters are videotaped and evaluated using an ethologically based analysis[1].
Rats[2]
Male albino rats of Wistar strain weighing 200-250 g are used. They are kept in a temperature of 23-25°C with alternating 12-hour light and dark cycles and allowed free access to food and water. Animals are divided into six groups (n=6). Two groups receive two dose levels of Zuclopenthixol (0.7 and 1.4 mg/kg i.p.) 60 min and SCO (1.4 mg/kg i.p.) 30 min before decapitation. A third group of rats is injected with saline, with the same content of ethanol (20% v/v) and vegetable oil (2.8% v/v) in the test solution, 60 min and then SCO (1.4 mg/kg i.p.) 30 min before decapitation. The forth and fifth groups of rats receive two dose levels of Zuclopenthixol (0.7 and 1.4 mg/kg i.p.) 60 min and saline 30 min before decapitation. A control group of six animals is given saline, with the same content of ethanol (20% v/v) and vegetable oil (2.8% v/v) in the test solution, 60 min and then saline 30 min before decapitation and is run concurrently with drug-treated groups[2].
