SK-129 is a blood-brain barrier-permeable inhibitor of α-synuclein (αS) oligomers with a Kd of 221 nM. SK-129 preferentially binds to neurotoxic αS oligomers over physiological αS monomers, inhibits αS aggregation, blocks the interaction and co-aggregation of αS with tau protein, and prevents the maturation of αS-tau condensates into amyloid aggregates. SK-129 reduces ROS production, rescues dopaminergic neuron degeneration, improves motor function, restores endogenous dopamine synthesis, increases the number of Tyrosine Hydroxylase-positive neurons, prevents brain histopathological changes, alleviates neuroinflammation, and improves survival rates in relevant models. SK-129 can be used in research related to Parkinson's disease (PD) and Lewy body dementia (LBD).

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. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
