Biological Activity

FK962 is a candidate anti-dementia agent and derivative of FK960 that modulates somatostatin neurotransmission. It significantly enhances high K+-evoked somatostatin release from rat hippocampal slices at concentrations of 1–1000 nM. Furthermore, FK962 attenuates somatostatin-induced inhibition of Ca2+ channels at 1–100 nM in rat hippocampal neurons. Through these mechanisms, FK962 enhances somatostatinergic signaling and neuronal excitability, supporting its potential pro-cognitive activity.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
