    NBQX disodium purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Phytomedicine. 2025 Apr:139:156457.

    Representative images of FJB-positive neurons, marking degenerating neurons in the CA1, CA3, and DG regions post-TBI. The results showed that, compared with the TBI‑vehicle group, the NBQX (30 mg/kg) treatment group exhibited a significant reduction in neuronal death in the CA1, CA3, and DG regions of the rat hippocampus.

    Description

    NBQX disodium (FG9202 disodium) is a highly selective and competitive AMPA receptor antagonist. NBQX disodium has neuroprotective and anticonvulsant activity[1].

    IC50 & Target

    AMPA receptor[1]

    In Vitro

    NBQX disodium (FG9202 disodium) has a high affinity for AMPA and kainate binding sites with little or no affinity for the glutamate recognition site on the NMDA receptor complex[1].

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

    In Vivo

    NBQX disodium (FG9202; 20 mg/kg, i.p.; for 3 days) decreases seizures induced by PTZ[2].
    NBQX disodium is neuroprotective in a focal ischaemia model in the rat when given as an i.v. bolus dose of 30 mg/kg at the time of MCA occlusion and again at 1 h post occlusion[1].

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

    Animal Model: Male Wistar rats that weighed 220-240 g with pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)[2]
    Dosage: 20 mg/kg
    Administration: IP; for 3 days
    Result: Effectively reversed the behavioral abnormality of epileptic seizures of chronic PTZ administration (50mg/kg; i.p.; for 28 days) in rats.

    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: ≥ 1 mg/mL (2.63 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (10.0 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: ≥ 1 mg/mL (2.63 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (10.0 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.
