Description of Amisulpride

Amisulpride is an atypical antagonist of dopamine D2/D3 receptor with Ki values of 2.8±0.4nM and 3.2±0.3nM for D2 and D3 receptor subtypes, respectively [1].

Amisulpride has shown high affinity to the cloned and stably transfected human dopamine D2 with Ki values of 2.8±0.4nM and 3.2±0.3nM for D2 and D3 receptor subtypes, respectively. Amisulpride has been reported to inhibit radioligand binding to native dopamine D2 receptor in membranes from the rat striatum with an IC50 value of 21nM. Besides, Amisulpride has been revealed to displace [3H]raclopride binding in vivo with an ED50 value of 17.3±1.86mg/kg in the rat limbic system. In addition, Amisulpride has been noted to inhibit quinpirole-induced [3H]thymidine with an IC50 value of 22±3nM [1].

Protocol of Amisulpride

Cell experiment:

The functional effects of Amisulpride at the dopamine D3 receptor subtype are assessed. Briefly, the mitogenic response elicited in NG108-15 neuroblastoma-glioma cells stably transfected with human dopamine D3 receptor cDNA by the addition of 10 nM quinpirole in the presence of 1 μM forskolin is quantified by the incorporation of [3H]thymidine. Antagonism of quinpirole-induced mitogenesis is measured in the presence of increasing (0.1 to 100 nM) concentrations of Amisulpride[1].

Animal experiment:

A total of 64 male Swiss albino mice weighing between 20 to 30 g are used. The animals are fed with standard pellet diet and water ad libitum. The mice are divided in different groups (n=8 in each group) and drug administration is done as follows: Group 1 (control): distilled water (1 mL/kg) 23.5, 5 and 1 h before the test. Group 3 (Amisulpride): Amisulpride (70 mg/kg) 23.5, 5 and 1 h before the test[2].

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
