Biological Activity

Description Ethosuximide(Zarontin) is a succinimide anticonvulsant, used mainly in absence seizures; A calcium channel blocker.
In vitro
In vitro

Ethosuximide(ETH) enhances hippocampal derived NSC proliferation and neurospheres formation in vitro. Low concentration of ETH induces proliferation of NSC, while higher concentrations of ETH are cytotoxic. Also, ETH activates the PI3K/Akt signal transduction pathway in adult hippocampal NSC in vitro. Blockade of the PI3K/Akt pathway inhibits ETH induced hippocampal NSC neuronal differentiation[3].
Cell Research Cell lines Mouse neuroblastoma cell line (N2A)
Concentrations 0.1, 0.56, 1 mg/ml
Incubation Time 5 h
Method

Mouse Neuro2A (N2A) neuroblastoma cells are cultured on 6-well plates and treated with retinoic acid to induce neuronal differentiation. After 24 h, N2A cells are treated with vehicle control (PBS) or increasing concentrations of ethosuximide for 5 h. Total RNA is then isolated, DNase-treated and reverse transcribed to cDNA. qRT-PCR is run above normalising to the reference genes glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and β-actin (ACTB).
In Vivo
In vivo

Anti-epileptic drug ethosuximide rescues the short lifespan and chemosensory defects exhibited by C. elegans null mutants of dnj-14, the worm orthologue of the DNAJC5 gene mutated in autosomal-dominant adult-onset neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. It also ameliorates the locomotion impairment and short lifespan of worms expressing a human Tau mutant that causes frontotemporal dementia[1]. Ethosuximide extends lifespan by inhibiting the function of specific chemosensory neurons[2]. It increases neurogenesis, reduces neurodegeneration, and reverses cognitive impairments in rat model of AD like phenotypes[3].

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 ddH2O, 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.
