Samidorphan
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Samidorphan (ALKS-33) is an orally active opioid system modulator that has a high affinity for binding with μ‐opioid, κ‐opioid, and δ‐opioid receptors. Samidorphan acts as an antagonist at μ‐opioid receptors and acts as a partial agonist at k-opioid and δ‐opioid receptors. Samidorphan primarily acts as an opioid receptor antagonist in vivo. Samidorphan can improve the behavior of depressed animals.

Samidorphan (0-10 mg/kg, s.c., 3 h-1 week) can alter the behavior and extracellular neurotransmitter concentration of rats[5].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Animal Model:WKY rat[5]
-
Dosage:0, 0.3, 1, 3, 10 mg/kg
-
Administration:Subcutaneous injection (s.c.) for 3 h, 24 h, and 1 week
-
Result:Had no significant effect at any of the doses or time points tested.
Concurrant administration of BUP (HY-177072) (0.1 mg/kg) significantly reduced immobility at 3h (p<0.01) and this effect persisted up to 1 week.
Abolished this BUPinduced hyperlocomotion.
Significantly reduced the number of marbles buried compared with vehicle-treated rats.
Attenuated BUP-induced changes of extracellular levels of serotonin and dopamine in the medial prefrontal cortex and nucleus accumbens shell.
-
Animal Model:Swiss mice (180-250 g)[4]
-

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (13.50 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (13.50 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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.

Working solution concentration: 0.22 mg/mL
Method for preparing stock solution: mg drug dissolved in μL DMSO. Stock solution concentration: mg/mL.
1. Take μL DMSO stock solution;
2. Add μL .
μL , mix evenly;
3. Then add μL Tween 80, mix evenly;
4. Then add μL
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
