Description

Amikacin (BAY 41-6551) is a semisynthetic kanamycin analog that is active against most Gram-negative bacteria, including gentamicin- and tobramycin-resistant strains. Significant inhibitory effect. Amikacin is ototoxic and nephrotoxic. Amikacin can be used in bacteriostatic, anti-cancer and analgesic studies[1][2][3][4][5].

TXNIP

 

In Vitro

Amikacin (30 µg, 0-24 h) has antibacterial activity, with a MIC50 value of 512 µg/mL against clinically isolated E. coli, and has a synergistic effect with imipenem (HY-B1369A), and the antibacterial effect is better when used in combination[1].
Amikacin (250 µg/mL, 0-24 h) inhibits the migration and invasion of human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 cells by up-regulating the expression of TXNIP, indicating its anti-tumor potential[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Western Blot Analysis[2]

Cell Line: human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 cells
Concentration: 250 µg/mL
Incubation Time: 0-24 h
Result: Upregulated the expression of TXNIP to 4.87 times.
In Vivo

Amikacin (single 30 mg/kg, s.c. or i.p.) has an analgesic effect in mice and has a synergistic effect when combined with morphine, but the analgesic effect of Amikacin can be reversed by Naloxone (HY-17417A)[3].
Amikacin (500 mg/kg/day for 8 days, s.c.) damages calpain activity in rat cochlea, promotes the degradation of sensory cells and neurons, and then leads to ototoxicity[4].
Amikacin (100 and 500 mg/kg/day for 10 days, s.c.) is nephrotoxic and its continued accumulation in rats can lead to kidney damage[5].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
