Product Data
Biological target:
SAK 3 enhances CaV3.1 and CaV3.3, but not CaV3.2 activity in vitro. SAK 3 elevates ACh levels in hippocampus. SAK 3 rescues impaired memory-related behaviors, promotes adult neurogenesis and displays antidepressant-like effects in OBX mice.
In vitro activity:
SAK 3 possessed protective properties against cholinergic deficit, suggesting that it has potential for Alzheimer’s disease treatment. In human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells, SAK 3 inhibited scopolamine-induced cellular apoptosis, increases in ROS levels, decreases in choline acetyltransferase level, phosphorylation of NF-κB, activation of Akt, JNK and p38 intracellular signaling pathways, and elevation of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-6. Reference: Cytotechnology. 2020 Feb;72(1):155-164. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31933104/
In vivo activity:
SAK 3 could be a candidate for Alzheimer's disease treatment. SAK 3 significantly enhanced acetylcholine (ACh) release in the hippocampal CA1 region of naïve mice. Acute SAK 3 administration significantly enhanced hippocampal ACh levels in OBX mice, rescuing impaired memory-related behaviors. SAK 3-induced ACh releases were significantly blocked in the hippocampus from Cav3.1 knockout mice. Reference: Neuropharmacology. 2017 May 1;117:1-13. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28093211/
