Product Description

Amfebutamone HCl (Bupropion, Wellbutrin, Zyban; BW-323; NSC315851; NSC-315851), the hydrochloride salt of Amfebutamone, is a potent and selective norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor used as an antidepressant and for smoking cessation. It suppresses dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake with IC50s of 6.5 and 3.4 μM, respectively. One of the antidepressants that doctors prescribe the most in the US is amfebutamone.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Dopamine receptor; AChR
ln Vitro
Bupropion (Amfebutamone) hydrochloride inhibits CYP2D6 with an IC50 of 58 μM[1].
Bupropion hydrochloride, an atypical antidepressant, causes caspase-dependent cytotoxicity and endoplasmic reticulum stress in SH-SY5Y cells[3].
Bupropion hydrochloride causes apoptotic cell death in SH-SY5Y cells by inducing endoplasmic reticulum stress responses and activating JNK, which in turn activates caspase 3[3].
Bupropion (1-100 µg/mL) hydrochloride decreases the viability of cells. The decrease in cell viability caused by bupropion could have resulted from apoptotic processes[3].
Bupropion (100 μg/mL) hydrochloride increases GRP78 expression in less than a hour, as well as the phosphorylated forms of EIF-2α, JNK, and p38 MAPK[3].
ln Vivo
Bupropion (Amfebutamone) hydrochloride exhibits both anticonvulsant and convulsant properties in mice. In mice, bupropion induces clonic convulsions in a dose-dependent manner; the convulsive dose50 (or dose that produces convulsions in 50% of mice) is 119.7 mg/kg[4].
Bupropion hydrochloride dose-dependently reduces the immobility period (in seconds) in male albino mice weighing between 22 and 30 g (10, 15, 20, and 40 mg/kg, i.p.). This effect is observed in comparison to the vehicle control group. In the forced swim test and tail suspension test, bupropion's ED50 values for shortening the immobility period were determined to be 18.5 and 18 mg/kg i.p., respectively. In the mouse brain, bupropion hydrochloride (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg, i.p.) increases the concentration of free dopamine and its metabolite homovanillic acid in a dose-dependent manner[5].
Cell Assay
Cell Line: SH-SY5Y human catecholaminergic cells
Concentration: 0, 1, 10, 50, and 100 µg/mL
Incubation Time: 24 hours
Result: Cell viability decreased significantly in a concentration-dependent manner.
Animal Protocol

100-160 mg/kg

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
