Product Page - Scientific background :
5-Chloroindole is a potent and selective allosteric modulator of the 5-HT3 receptor that displays micromolar potency.The 5-HT3 receptor belongs to the Cys-loop ligand-gated ion channel superfamily. It mediates fast synaptic neurotransmission in neurons of both the central and peripheral nervous systems.5-Chloroindole can assist in the investigation of the molecular basis for allosteric modulation of the 5-HT3 receptor and may contribute to the discovery of novel therapeutic drugs targeting the 5-HT3 receptor1. 5-Chloroindole is also used as a strong inhibitor of the copper dissolution in acidic sodium chloride solution2. Several different studies have shown that 5-chloroindole has the ability to decrease serotonin levels in the brainstem and in the telencephalon3.

Target :
5-HT3 receptors
Long Description :
5-Chloroindole (#C-260) is a highly pure, synthetic, and biologically active compound.
Short Description :
A Positive Allosteric Modulator of 5-HT3 Receptors
MW :
151.6
Source :
Synthetic
Molecular formula :
C8H6ClN.
Effective Concentration :
1-100 µM.
Activity :
5-Chloroindole is a potent and selective allosteric modulator of the 5-HT3 receptor that displays micromolar potency1.
Reconstitution and Solubility :
Centrifuge the vial before adding solvent (10,000 x g for 5 minutes) to spin down all the powder to the bottom of the vial. The lyophilized product may be difficult to visualize. Add solvent directly to the centrifuged vial. Tap the vial to aid in dissolving the lyophilized product. Tilt and gently roll the liquid over the walls of the vial. Avoid vigorous vortexing. Light vortexing for up to 3 seconds is acceptable if needed. The product is soluble in pure water at high micromolar concentrations (100 µM - 1 mM). For long-term storage in solution, we recommend preparing a stock solution by dissolving the product in double-distilled water (ddH2O) at a concentration between 100-1000x of the final working concentration. Divide the stock solution into small aliquots and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw the relevant vial(s) and dilute to the desired working concentration in your working buffer. Centrifuge all product preparations before use. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions in working buffers just before use. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles to maintain biological activity
Solubility :
200 mM in DMSO. Centrifuge all product preparations before use (10000 x g 5 min).
Storage of solutions :
Up to four weeks at 4°C or three months at -20°C.
