ln Vitro |
2'MeO6MF (100-300 µM; 60 min) slightly shifts the binding of [3H]-flunitrazepam to the synaptic membranes in rat brain by 5–10%. In a concentration-dependent manner, 2'MeO6MF increases [3H]-muscimol binding to rat brain synaptic membranes, resulting in an apparent EC50=20.8 nM and a mean Emax of 219.8%[1]. At recombinant α1β2γ2L GABAA receptors produced in Xenopus M oocytes, 2'MeO6MF (1-300 µM) concentration-dependently improves the response evoked by a low dose of GABA. Without any direct activation, 2'MeO6MF amplifies the response that GABA elicits at recombinant α1β1,3η2L and α1β2 GABAA receptors[1]. Concentration-dependently, 2'MeO6MF (1-10 µM; 60 min) raises tonic inhibitory currents in granule cells[2]. In RAWblueTM macrophage cells, 2'MeO6MF (100-1000 µM; 6.5 h) suppresses the LPS-induced increase in NFkB activity[2].

ln Vivo |
In the elevated plus maze and light/dark tests, 2'MeO6MF (1-100 mg/kg; ip) exhibits anxiolytic-like effects. Higher dosages of MeO6MF produce sedative effects in the holeboard, actimeter, and barbiturate-induced sleep time tests[1]. After a stroke, mice's layer 2/3 pyramidal neurons exhibit an increase in tonic currents when exposed to 30 mg/kg of MeO6MF IV[2]. 2'MeO6MF (0.1-30 mg/kg; ip) protects neurons and improves functional recovery in mice following localized cerebral ischemia[2].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] Oral Formulations
Oral Formulation 1: Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na (carboxymethylcellulose sodium) Oral Formulation 2: Suspend in 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Example: Take the Oral Formulation 1 (Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na) as an example, if 100 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can first prepare 0.5% CMC Na solution by measuring 0.5 g CMC Na and dissolve it in 100 mL ddH2O to obtain a clear solution; then add 250 mg of the product to 100 mL 0.5% CMC Na solution, to make the suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

5 mM | 0.7511 mL | 3.7553 mL | 7.5106 mL | |
10 mM | 0.3755 mL | 1.8777 mL | 3.7553 mL |
*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.
