InvivoChem Cat #:V26539CAS #:2170405-10-2Purity >=98%Description: NLX-204 is a novel and selective agonist of ERK1/2 phosphorylation-preferring serotonin 5 HT1A receptor with pKi pf 10.19. NLX-204 displayed high selectivity in the SafetyScreen44 panel (including hERG channel), high solubility, metabolic stability, and Caco-2 penetration and did not block CYP3A4, CYP2D6 isoenzymes, or P-glycoprotein. Preliminary in vivo studies confirmed its promising pharmacokinetic profile. NLX-204 also robustly stimulated ERK1/2 phosphorylation in rat cortex and showed highly potent (MED = 0.16 mg/kg) and efficacious antidepressant-like activity, totally eliminating immobility in the rat Porsolt test.
