Description

Dopal is a metabolite and aldehyde neurotoxin of Dopamine (HY-B0451). Dopal exhibits cytotoxicity, induces α-synuclein oligomerization and aggregation, and is closely associated with the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. Dopal can be used in research related to Parkinson's disease[1][2].

IC50 & Target[1]

α-synuclein Aggregation

 

In Vitro

Dopal (1.5-1500 μM; 0-4 h) induces dose- and time-dependent aggregation of purified human recombinant α-synuclein in a cell-free system; aggregation initiates at concentrations as low as 1.5 μM, and large polymeric α-synuclein aggregates form at concentrations of 300 μM and above[1].
Dopal (3 μM-1 mM; 2-8 h) induces dose-dependent α-synuclein aggregation and cytotoxicity in SHSY-5Y cells overexpressing wild-type α-synuclein, with significant aggregation observed at concentrations ≥30 μM, oligomer formation initiated at 3 μM, and rapid cell death occurring at 1 mM[1].
Dopal (100-150 μM; 18-24 h) exhibits toxicity to SH-SY5Y cells and also induces cell apoptosis[2].
Dopal (100-200 μM; 16-24 h) induces the formation of α-synuclein-EGFP dimers in SH-SY5Y cells overexpressing α-synuclein-EGFP[2].

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay[2]

Cell Line: SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells
Concentration: 100 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Induced ~30% death in the SH-SY5Y cell population, significantly reducing cell viability compared to untreated controls.
In Vivo

Dopal (0.2-1.0 μg; stereotaxically injected into the substantia nigra; single dose) induces dose-dependent α-synuclein oligomer formation and causes loss of immunoreactivity for dopaminergic neuron markers in male Parkinson's disease rats[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Sprague-Dawley (male, 2-month-old, 300 g, unilateral stereotactic injection into substantia nigra)[1]
Dosage: 1.0 μg; 0.2 μg
Administration: stereotactic injection into substantia nigra; single dose
Result: Increased 50 to 170 kDa α-synuclein (AS) oligomers by 2.75-fold relative to vehicle control, with these oligomers accounting for 63% of total AS at 4 hours post-injection with 1.0 μg dose.
Induced a lesser increase in 50 to 170 kDa AS oligomers at 4 hours post-injection with 0.2 μg dose compared to 1.0 μg dose.
Caused loss of tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity in the substantia nigra at 24 and 48 hours post-injection with both 1.0 μg and 0.2 μg doses. Failed to detect large AS aggregates via immunohistochemistry at 4, 24, or 48 hours post-injection.

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.
