BN201 promotes neuronal differentiation, the differentiation of precursor cells to mature oligodendrocytes (EC50 of 6.3 μM) in vitro, and the myelination of new axons (EC50 of 16.6 μM). BN201 is able to cross the blood-brain barrier by active transport and activate pathways (IGF-1 pathway) associated with the response to stress and neuron survival. BN201 has potently neuroprotective effects.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C.
