Description DREADD agonist 21 is a potent agonist of human muscarinic acetylcholine M3 receptors (EC50=1.7 nM).
Targets&IC50 M1 (human):(pki)5.97 , α1A-adrenoceptor:280 nM(ki), M3Dq (human):1.7 nM (EC50), 5-HT2A receptor:66 nM(ki), H1 receptor:(ki)6 nM, M4 (human):5.44(pki), M1Dq (human):7.2(pki), M4Di (human):6.75(pki), 5-HT2C receptor:170 nM(ki)
In vitro DREADD agonist 21 is a highly selective and potent agonist for muscarinic DREADDs (pEC50 for hM1Dq=6.54 and that for hM4Di=7.77 in pERK assays)[2]. DREADD agonist 21 potently activates hM3Dq in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected cells in vitro (pEC50: 8.48±0.05) and it also potently activates hM1Dq, hM3Dq, and hM4Di. DREADD agonist 21 does not activate human M3 receptor (hM3). DREADD agonist 21 displays high binding affinities to 5HT2A and 5HT2C serotonin receptor, α1A adrenergic receptor, and H1 histamine receptor with Ki values of 66, 170, 280, and 6 nM, respectively[1]. In addition to being inactive at hM3, DREADD agonist 21, a potent full agonist of hM3Dq (EC50=1.7 nM), is only 3.5-fold selective for hM3Dq over H1, 40-fold selective over 5HT2A, 100-fold selective over 5HT2C, and 165-fold selective over α1A. DREADD agonist 21 binds to hM1, hM4, hM1Dq and hM4Di receptors (pKis of 5.97, 5.44, 7.20, and 6.75, respectively).
In vivo DREADD agonist 21 has excellent pharmacokinetic properties, bioavailability and brain penetrability. DREADD agonist 21 (0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 mg/kg; i.p.) activates neuronal hM3Dq in mice. DREADD agonist 21 (0.1, 1, and 10 mg/kg; i.p.) shows 95.1% plasma protein binding and 95% brain protein bounding in mice[2].

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed n the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
