Description

Vecuronium (ORG NC 45) bromide is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent that also acts as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) inhibitor, a muscle relaxant, and can be used for pre-surgical anesthesia[1][2].

In Vitro

Vecuronium bromide (0-100 μM, 15 min) inhibits [3H] norepinephrine (NE) uptake to 65% at 100 μM in adrenal medullary cells[1].
Vecuronium bromide (0-15 μM,72 hours) inhibits cancer cell proliferation and migration in a concentration-dependent manner[2].
Vecuronium bromide (0-15 μM,72 hours) can significantly reduce cell viability by combining with cisplatin[2].

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

Cell Proliferation Assay[2]

Cell Line: Lung cancer cell line (A549)
Concentration: 0-15 μM
Incubation Time: 72 hours
Result: Inhibited cell proliferation at concentrations ranging from 5.0 μM to 15 μM.

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay[2]

Cell Line: Lung cancer cell line (A549)
Concentration: 0-15 μM
Incubation Time: 72 hours
Result: Resulted in a decrease in cell viability from 10 μM to 15 Μm by combining with cisplatin.
In Vivo

Vecuronium bromide (Intravenous injection, 0-5 μM, every 30 min, 2 hours) attenuates the response of carotid sinus nerve activity (CSNA) to hypoxia in a dose-dependent manner and inhibits the neural response of the carotid body to acetylcholine (ACh) in Wister rats[3].

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

Animal Model: Wister rats weighing 250-350 g[3]
Dosage: 0-5 μM
Administration: Intravenous injection; every 30 min; 2 hours
Result: Significantly diminished CSNA response to hypoxia at the concentration of 5 μM and reduced carotid sinus nerve response to ACh at 0.5 μM.

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.26 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.26 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.

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.
