MC-100093
MC-100093 is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable GLT-1 expression upregulator. MC-100093 upregulates the expression of GLT-1 and xCT in rats, and alleviates fentanyl-induced GLT-1 downregulation, IL-6 upregulation and motor hyperactivity. MC-100093 upregulates GLT-1 expression and enhances glutamate uptake in astrocyte-neuron co-culture systems. MC-100093 reduces ethanol consumption and preference, and exerts gender-specific antidepressant-like effects. MC-100093 can be used in studies related to fentanyl overdose, mood disorders and alcohol use disorders.

Biological Activity
MC-100093 (0.1 μM) enhances glutamate uptake in astrocyte-neuron co-cultures with an IC50 of 0.1 μM, producing a 23.5% increase in uptake[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
MC-100093 (50 mg/kg; i.p.; daily; days 5 to 9) reverses GLT-1 downregulation and IL-6 upregulation in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), attenuates excessive spontaneous activity, and normalizes in vivo levels of Glycine (HY-Y0966) and Arachidonic acid (HY-109590) in fentanyl-treated male BALB/c mice[2].
MC-100093 (25-100 mg/kg, i.p., once daily for 6 consecutive days) exerts gender-specific antidepressant-like effects in female mice[4].
MC-100093 (50 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily; for 6 consecutive days) reduces ethanol preference and increases water intake in female mice with high alcohol consumption, but exerts no effect on ethanol drinking behavior in male mice with high alcohol consumption[4].

Administration:i.p.; daily; days 5 to 9
-
Result:Attenuated fentanyl-induced hyperlocomotion, with treated mice traveling a mean total distance of 2366 cm.
Normalized fentanyl-induced reduction in glycine levels in the NAc, with no significant difference from control group glycine levels.
Prevented fentanyl-induced reduction in arachidonic acid levels in the NAc, with no significant difference from control group arachidonic acid levels.
Significantly upregulated GLT-1 protein expression in the NAc relative to fentanyl-only mice, reversing the fentanyl-induced downregulation of GLT-1.
Significantly reduced fentanyl-induced upregulation of IL-6 protein expression in the NAc, with levels not significantly different from the control group.
Did not significantly alter fentanyl-induced changes in D-glucose, D-turanose, or L-valine levels in the NAc, nor did it restore the overall fentanyl-altered NAc metabolomic profile.
