P7C3

SKU: orb1307277

Description

The P7C3 class of neuroprotective compounds not only prevents neuronal death but also maintains axonal integrity following injury, as demonstrated in rodent blast TBI models. This activity is associated with the activation of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), enhancing NAD+ salvage. These molecules are valuable tools for researching neuroprotection in models of traumatic brain injury and neurodegeneration.

Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  In mouse brain, P7C3 (40 mg/kg, p.o.) induces neurogenesis and enhances survival of newborn neurons. In npas3 / mice, P7C3 (20 mg/kg/d, p.o.) increases the magnitude of neural precursor cell proliferation, and corrects morphological and electrophysiological deficits. In the Ts65Dn mouse model of Down Syndrome, P7C3 restores hippocampal neurogenesis though a significant increase in total Ki67+, DCX+, and surviving BrdU+ cells.
• In Vitro:
  In U2OS Cells, P7C3 protects cells from doxorubicin-mediated toxicity, and enhances the flux of nicotinamide through the NAMPT-mediated salvage pathway.
