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.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
GABA receptor
In vivo
TMCA decreased the locomotor activity in mice, prolonged total sleep time, and reduced sleep latency induced by pentobarbital. TMCA also increased the total sleep time and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. It alters sleep architecture through GABAAergic systyems. TMCA exhibits anti-stress actions by the suppression of norepinephrine (NE) content in locus coeruleus (LC) induced by corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH).
