Leteprinim potassium
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Leteprinim potassium (AIT-082), a purine analog, is a neuroprotective agent and cognitive enhancer. Leteprinim potassium is a hypoxanthine derivative neurotrophic agent. Leteprinim potassium can induce brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA production following spinal cord lesions, and nerve growth factor (NGF) mRNA production in basal forebrain. Leteprinim potassium reduces glutamate toxicity in cultured hippocampal neurons. Leteprinim potassium increases heme-oxygenase 1 and 2 mRNA levels that play role in cellular defense against reactive oxygen species.

Biological Activity
Leteprinim (5-50 ng/mL, 24 and 48 h) potassium enhances neurotransmitter release, increases secretion of synaptophysin in PC12 cells[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Leteprinim (60 mg/kg, i.p.) potassium enhances working memory in young and aged mice[3].
Leteprinim (60 mg/kg; i.p.; single dosage) potassium significantly reduces the number of apoptotic neurons in hypoxic-ischemic brain injury rat pups[4].

Result:The number of preserved neurons was significantly high in CA1, CA3 regions of hippocampus and dentate gyrus in the left hemispheres when compared with the saline-treated group.
In the right hemisphere, neuronal densities of CA1, CA2, CA3 regions of hippocampus and dentate gyrus were significantly high in neotrofin treatment group when compared with the group given saline.
