Clear solution
5% DMSO 95% Corn oil
5.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 100 mg/ml clear DMSO stock solution to 950 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
5.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 100 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Ivermectin is a glutamate-gated chloride channel (GluCls) activator, used as a broad-spectrum antiparasitic drug. Ivermectin (MK-933, IVM) is a specific positive allosteric effector of P2X4 and α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). Ivermectin (MK-933) is a specific inhibitor of Impα/β1-mediated nuclear import and has potent antiviral activity towards both HIV-1 and dengue virus. Ivermectin induces autophagy through the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and mitophagy.
Targets
chloride channel [3]
In vitro

Ivermectin has potent antiviral activity towards both HIV-1 anddengue virus, both of which are strongly reliant on importin α/β nuclear import, with respect to the HIV-1 integrase and NS5 (non-structural protein 5) polymerase proteins respectively. [1] Ivermectin binds to a novel site on the GABAA receptor and allosterically enhances the affinity of the GABA binding site in mouse hippocampal embryonic neurons. [2] Ivermectin disrupts neurotransmission processes regulated by GluCl activity by binding to nematode glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls). Ivermectin decreases the amount of protein released from microfilariae. [3]
In vivo

Ivermectin (1.25-10 mg/kg, intraperitoneal) significantly reduces 24-h alcohol consumption and intermittent limited access (4-hours) binge drinking, and operant alcohol self-administration (1-h). Ivermectin also produces a significant reduction in 24-h saccharin consumption, but does not alter operant sucrose self-administration. [4] Ivermectin improves mouse survival rate induced by a lethal dose of LPS. Ivermectin significantly decreases the production of TNF-alpha, IL-1ss and IL-6 in vivo and in vitro. Ivermectin suppresses NF-kB translocation induced by LPS. [5]
