In Vivo

U-69593 (0.16 mg/kg; s.c.) attenuates addictive agent-induced behavioral sensitization in the rat^[2].
U-69593 (1, 10, 25 nmol/μL; Microinjection) reduces anxiety and enhances spontaneous alternation memory in mice^[3].
U-69593 (0.32 mg/kg; s.c.) decreases acute amphetamine-evoked behaviors and calcium-dependent dialysate levels of dopamine and glutamate in the ventral striatum^[4].

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

Animal Model:	Rat^[2]
Dosage:	0.16 mg/kg
Administration:	S.c. (an acute injection of cocaine (20 mg/kg i.p.))
Result:	Attenuated the acute and chronic effects of cocaine on locomotor activity and stereotypy.

Animal Model:	CD-1 mice^[3]
Dosage:	1, 10, 25 nmol/µL
Administration:	Microinjection (in the infralimbic cortex (IL)), once every week, 2 weeks
Result:	Dose-dependently prolonged transfer-latency (T-L) and produced a dose-dependent anxiolytic behavioural profile, and after 24 h, the mouse were observed small but detectable carry-over effects. In week 2, U-69593 dose-dependently prolonged T/L and produced an anxiolytic behavioural profile in the first EPM (elevated plus-maze) trial, but observed a robust anxiolytic behavioural profile.

Animal Model:	280-350 g, male Wistar rats^[4]
Dosage:	0.32 mg/kg
Administration:	S.c. (followed 15 min later by an injection of amphetamine (2.5 mg/kg i.p.))
Result:	Significantly reduced the amphetamine-stimulated increase in dialysate dopamine levels and blocked the ability of amphetamine to evoke an increase in dialysate glutamate levels.

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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.01 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.01 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.

Method for preparing in vivo working solution for animal experiments: Take μL DMSO stock solution, add μL . μL , mix evenly, next add μL Tween 80, mix evenly, then add μL Saline.

If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

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.

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.
