Description

Hydroxocobalamin monohydrochloride (Vitamin B12a monohydrochloride) is an injectable naturally occurring form of vitamin B12 with a favorable adverse effect profile, used as a dietary supplement in the treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency including pernicious anemia[1][2].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

The cobalt atom of hydroxocobalamin binds cyanide and nitric oxide and hydroxocobalamin attenuates vascular responses to NO in vitro[3].

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

In Vivo

Treatment with hydroxocobalamin before or after giving LPS attenuates LPS-induced hypotension and increases in plasma RNI and enhances LPS-induced urinary excretion of RNI. Hydroxocobalamin (20 mg/kg i.p.) given to Swiss-Webster mice 30 min before giving LPS (16 mg/kg i.p.) decreases the 24-hr mortality of LPS from 80 to 50% and the 36- and 96-hr mortality from 100 to 60% (hydroxocobalamin)[3].
More than 60% of the mice administered 35 mg/kg (0.63 mmol/kg) of NaSH (LD90) survive (at 24 h) when hydroxocobalamin (0.25 mmol/kg) is given after NaSH administration whereas less than 15% of the mice survive without hydroxocobalamin. Hydroxocobalamin (50–100 μM) or cobalt (50–100 μM) also preventes hepatocyte cytotoxicity induced by NaSH (500 μM). Furthermore, adding hydroxocobalamin 60 min later than NaSH still shows some protective activity[4].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (1.81 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (1.81 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Animal Administration
[1][4]

Rats: Rats are pretreated with sterile PBS (0.1 mL/kg i.v.) 30 min before administration of LPS (0.8 mg/kg i.v.). Fifteen minutes after administration of LPS, when the 125-mediated decrease in blood pressure is maximum, the rats are administered either PBS (0.1 mI/kg i.v.) or hydroxocobalamin (20-30 mg/kg i.v.). Blood pressure, heart rate and RNI are measured[1].

Mice: Adult male CD1 mice, 25-30 g body weight are allowed to acclimatize for at least 7 days prior to experiment on standard chip bedding. All animals are fed ad libitum and are not fasted before experiments. Mice are treated with 0.1 mL/25 g volume per weight ratio of single injection. The survival of animals is recorded 24 h after the treatment[4].

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.
