Description

SDMA (Symmetric dimethylarginine) is an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase activity. SDMA, a novel kidney biomarker, permits earlier diagnosis of kidney disease than traditional creatinine testing.

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

SDMA is the structural isomer of the cardiovascular risk marker asymmetric dimethylarginine, as an endogenous marker of renal function. SDMA does not directly inhibit NOS but is a competitor of arginine transport. SDMA is primarily eliminated by renal excretion and is a promising endogenous marker of glomerular filtration rate[1]. SDMA inhibits dose dependently the NO synthesis in intact endothelial cells, whereas it has no effect on protein expression of NOS[1]. SDMA is involved in the inflammatory process of chronic kidney disease, activating NF-κB and resulting in enhanced expression of IL-6 and TNF-α[2].

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

In Vivo

SDMA is highly stable in serum and plasma, and the assay demonstrates excellent analytical performance. In unaffected dogs, SDMA remains unchanged whereas in affected dogs, SDMA increases during disease progression, correlating strongly with an increase in sCr and decrease in GFR[3]. Chronic SDMA infusion leads to a significant increase of SDMA levels in mice, but the GFR did not change at 4 weeks. No histological changes are observed, particularly no effect on fibrosis or endothelias nitric oxide synthase expression. There is neither an effect of SDMA on systolic blood pressure nor on ejection fraction[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 (12.36 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 (12.36 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.

Cell Assay
[2]

SDMA stock solution is prepared in 0.9% NaCl and diluted in the cell culture medium or in heparinized whole blood resulting in a maximal uremic concentration of 6.1 μM SDMA. Whole blood is incubated with saline (control) or different doses of ADMA (0.6, 3.6, and 36 μM) or SDMA (1.5, 3.1, and 6.1 μM) for 2 hours in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air at 37°C. Cells are finally stained for intracellular TNF-α or IL-6. Samples are analyzed with a flow cytometer[2].

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

Animal Administration
[4]

Mice: Eight-week-old male C57Bl/6 mice receives vehicle-controlled infusion of SDMA (250 µmol/kg/days) for 28 days using osmotic minipumps (n=24/group). Glomerular filtration rate, cardiac function and blood pressure are monitored. Blood samples for SDMA determination are obtained at baseline, 2 and 4 weeks. Mice are euthanized at 4 weeks to obtain tissue for renal histology[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.
