Blixeprodil
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Blixeprodil (GM-1020) is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-penetrant NMDA receptor inhibitor with a Ki of 3.25 µM in rat cortical tissues. Blixeprodil binds to the MK-801 ion channel site and blocks NMDA receptor-mediated currents in hyperpolarized states in a voltage-dependent manner. Blixeprodil modulates the power of cortical EEG frequency bands, alters spontaneous motor activity, and induces ataxia at high doses. Blixeprodil can be used in the research of depression.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Blixeprodil (GM-1020) binds to NMDA receptors in rat brain homogenates with a Ki value of 3.25 µM[1].
Blixeprodil inhibits the functional activities of both NR1/NR2A and NR1/NR2B NMDA receptors in Xenopus laevis oocytes with similar potency, with IC50 values of 3.70 µM and 4.16 µM, respectively[1].
Blixeprodil inhibits NR1/2A NMDA receptor-mediated currents in HEK293 cells with an IC50 of 1.192 µM, and blocks the receptor in a voltage-dependent manner;
Blixeprodil binds to the human μ-opioid receptor in transfected HEK cells, with a Ki value of 19 µM[1].
Blixeprodil exhibits selective binding to NMDA receptors across a broad panel of off-targets, with weak binding affinity for the serotonin transporter (Ki = 6.2 µM)[1].

In Vivo
Blixeprodil (0.75-9 mg/kg; i.p.; weekly; 5 weeks) reverses CMS-induced depressive-like phenotypes in rats at doses ≥1.5 mg/kg i.p., with effects durable for up to 15 days after the final weekly dose[1].
Blixeprodil (1.5-9 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose; 1-10 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) restores CMS-induced anhedonia in rats for up to 14 days post-dose[1].
Blixeprodil (1-32 mg/kg; s.c.; single dose) produces motor impairment in rats and mice only at doses ≥ 10 mg/kg s.c., with a 12-fold separation between efficacious plasma exposures for antidepressant-like effects and those causing ataxia in rats[1].
Blixeprodil (1-10 mg/kg; s.c.; single dose) produces dose-dependent changes in rat cortical EEG indicative of NMDA receptor target engagement[1].

Result:Increased spontaneous locomotor activity (sLMA) only at 32 mg/kg in rats.
Decreased rotarod latency at 10 and 32 mg/kg in rats, with an ED50 for ataxia of 17.4 mg/kg (interpolated plasma concentration = 1,876 ng/mL), ~12-fold higher than the plasma concentration at the CMS minimum efficacious dose (151 ng/mL).
Left sLMA unaffected at all doses in mice.
Decreased rotarod latency only at 10 and 32 mg/kg in mice, with an ED50 for ataxia of 37.4 mg/kg.
