Description Gabapentin (Neurontin) is an Anti-epileptic Agent. The physiologic effect of gabapentin is by means of Decreased Central Nervous System Disorganized Electrical Activity.
Targets&IC50 Ca2+ channel:140 nM
In vitro Administering 10-100 mg/kg of Gabapentin orally to rats results in a dose-dependent blockade of both static and dynamic allodynia.
In vivo Gabapentin induces alterations in the cytoplasmic and extracellular concentrations of several amino acids (including L-leucine, L-valine, and L-phenylalanine) in rat cortical astrocytes and synaptosomes, suggesting pharmacological significance. In GABA B receptors composed of gb1a-GB2 subunit heterodimers, gabapentin decreases potassium-stimulated calcium influx via voltage-gated calcium channels. It potentiates N-methyl-D-aspartate-evoked currents in GABAergic rat spinal dorsal horn neurons in the presence of protein kinase C, possibly by enhancing the glycine sensitivity of the NMDA receptor complex. Gabapentin causes a delayed enhancement of indeterminate voltage-activated potassium currents in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons. In fura-2-loaded human neocortical synaptosomes, it concentration-dependently inhibits potassium(+)-induced [Ca(2+)] elevations with an IC50 of 17 mM and maximal inhibition of 37%. Gabapentin binds to the α2 delta subunit of calcium channels, selectively attenuating depolarization-induced presynaptic Ca(2+) influx through P/Q-type Ca(2+) channels, resulting in reduced glutamate/aspartate release from excitatory amino acid nerve terminals to AMPA heteroreceptors on noradrenergic nerve endings.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box
