Bicuculline ((+)-Bicuculline) is A competing neurotransmitter GABAA receptor antagonist (IC50=2 μM). Bicuculline also blocks Ca2+ activating potassium (SK) channels and subsequently blocks slow post-hyperpolarization (slow AHP). Bicuculline has anticonvulsant activity. Bicuculline can be used to induce seizures in mice.

    製品説明

    Bicuculline ((+)-Bicuculline) is A competing neurotransmitter GABAA receptor antagonist (IC50=2 μM). Bicuculline also blocks Ca2+ activating potassium (SK) channels and subsequently blocks slow post-hyperpolarization (slow AHP). Bicuculline has anticonvulsant activity. Bicuculline can be used to induce seizures in mice[1][2][3][4].

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 2 μM (GABAA)[3]
    体外実験

    Bicuculline (1 and 3 μM) attains the maximal response of GABA. Bicuculline appears to shift the dose-response curves of GABA in parallel to the right without decreasing GABA maximal response, suggesting that it is a competitive antagonist at α1β2γ2L GABAA receptors[3].

    体内実験

    Note:
    Please do not refer to only one article to determine the experimental conditions. It is recommended to determine the optimal experimental conditions (animal strain, age, dosage, frequency and cycle, detection time and indicators, etc.) through preliminary experiments before the formal experiment.

    Bicuculline can be used to induce seizure models. In Sprague-Dawley rats, the pharmacokinetic parameters of orally administered Bicuculline (15 mg/kg) include a half-life of 1.6 hours, an AUC(0 t) of 109.0 ng/mL·h, a Cmax of 40 ng/mL, and a clearance rate of 144.5 L/h/kg[6].

    Induction of seizures
    Background
    Systemic administration of Bicuculline induces generalized seizures by blockade of GABAmediated pre- and postsynaptic inhibition.
    Specific Modeling Methods
    Rat: BD IX rats • female • 140-170 g
    Administration: 1.2 mg/kg • i.v. • single dose
    Note
    (1) Generalized seizures were induced by rapid i.v. injection of the GABAA antagonist, Bicuculline, by a dose of 1.2 mg/kg and terminated after 15 min of continuous seizures by injection of 2.5 mg/kg Diazepam.
    Modeling Indicators
    Molecular changes: KROX-24 and c-FOS showed a concurrent rapid rise with peak levels at 2 h and a return to Baseline levels within 8 h after seizure termination. FOS B, c-JUN and JUN B levels increased more gradually with peak intensities in the dentate gyrus reached at 4 h.

    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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.81 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.
    • Protocol 2

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

      Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.81 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.

    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.
