AChE-IN-117
AChE-IN-117 is an AChE/nAChR inhibitor with larvicidal activity against Culex pipiens third-instar larvae. AChE-IN-117 forms stable catalytic site interactions to disrupt cholinergic signaling. AChE-IN-117 binds to its receptor via hydrogen bonding and π-cation interactions to interfere with cholinergic synaptic transmission. AChE-IN-117 induces neurotoxic symptoms including hyperactivity, erratic movement, tremors, paralysis, and larval mortality. AChE-IN-117 can be used for the research of mosquito-borne infectious diseases.

Description
IC50 & Target
[1]|
AChE |
In Vitro
AChE-IN-117 (compound 7) (11.25-90 µg/mL; 24 h) potently kills third-instar Culex pipiens larvae with an LC50 of 0.16 µg/mL[1].
AChE-IN-117 binds strongly to homology-modeled Culex pipiens AChE with a binding affinity of -6.70 kcal/mol, forming stable interactions with key active-site residues[1].
AChE-IN-117 binds to homology-modeled Culex pipiens nAChR with a binding affinity of -5.78 kcal/mol, forming key interactions with critical receptor residues[1].

Protocols
-
Neurotoxicity Study
This protocol assesses in vitro neurotoxicity by combining neuronal viability, mitochondrial/metabolic activity, neurite outgrowth, and optional neuronal network function readouts. Calcein-AM or resazurin/PrestoBlue readouts estimate viable or metabolically active cells; βIII-tubulin immunofluorescence detects neuronal morphology and neurite networks; TMRE detects mitochondrial membrane potential; and MEA recordings detect functional changes in neuronal network activity.

Synaptic current patch-clamp recording in brain slices
Whole-cell patch-clamp recording in acute brain slices measures membrane current from visually identified neurons while preserving part of the local synaptic circuit; in voltage clamp, postsynaptic currents are generated by synaptic receptor-channel activation and are recorded as inward or outward currents at a defined holding potential. Miniature synaptic currents are recorded during action-potential blockade with tetrodotoxin, whereas evoked synaptic currents are generated by pathway stimulation and isolated pharmacologically as EPSCs or IPSCs.
