CM398 exerts analgesic effects on visceral pain, inflammatory pain and neuropathic pain. CM398 can be used in research related to age-related macular degeneration, neuropathic pain and inflammatory pain[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target[1]

Sigma 2 Receptor

0.43 nM (Ki)

In Vitro

CM398 protects the retinal pigment epithelial cell line ARPE-19 against paraquat-induced cytotoxic damage[1].
CM398 exhibits highly selective sub-nanomolar binding affinity (Ki = 0.43 nM) for sigma-2 receptors in rat brain homogenates, shows over 1000-fold selectivity over sigma-1 receptors, and has extremely low affinity for most non-sigma neurotransmitter receptors and transporters[3].
CM398 undergoes rapid phase I metabolism in rat liver microsomes, with an elimination half-life of 0.10 h[3].
CM398 (1-10 μM; 30 min) binds highly to rat plasma proteins, with an average binding rate of 93.8%[3].

In Vivo

Pretreatment with CM398 (3 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; single dose) partially reverses light-induced photoreceptor loss and blocks the formation of retinal autofluorescent granules in a mouse model associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD)[1].
CM398 (3-45 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) produces dose-dependent analgesic effects in the mouse acetic acid writhing visceral pain model, with an i.p. ED50 of 14.7 mg/kg[2].
CM398 (0.01-30 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; single administration) exerts potent, dose-dependent analgesic effects in the mouse formalin inflammatory pain model, with an ED50 of 0.86 mg/kg[2].
CM398 (30 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) exerts no significant analgesic effect in the acute thermal pain model of mouse tail-flick test at 55°C[2].
CM398 (i.p.; single administration at doses of 10-45 mg/kg) produces time- and dose-dependent anti-allodynic effects in the mouse CCI neuropathic pain model. The efficacy of i.p. doses of 30 mg/kg and 45 mg/kg is comparable to that of gabapentin, and the duration of action is longer than that of CM-304[2].
CM398 (i.p.; single administration, dose range 0.23-23.2 μmol/kg) exerts significant dose-dependent analgesic effects in mouse models of inflammatory pain, with statistically significant reductions in paw-licking duration observed at doses of 2.32 μmol/kg and 23.2 μmol/kg[3].

Showed longer-lasting effects than CM-304, with significant differences from vehicle control still present at 80 minutes post-administration for 30 mg/kg (p < 0.03) and 45 mg/kg (p < 0.0001) doses.

In Vivo:

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 (6.32 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 (6.32 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.
