1400W is a slow, tight binding, and highly selective inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor, with a Kd value ≤ 7 nM. 1400W inhibits iNOS induction in microglial cells, and reduces generation of NO, thereby mitigating oxidative stress and neuronal cell apoptosis in the rat cerebral cortex, and improving the spatial memory dysfunction caused by acute hypobaric hypoxia-reoxygenation.

    1400W dihydrochloride treatment effectively suppressed the induction of GSDMD cleavage and caspase 1 activation of Vγ9Vδ2-T cells following rhIFNγ stimulation under BSA or OA conditions.

    1400W purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Cell Metab. 2025 Jan 7;37(1):291-304.e9.  [Abstract]

    Effects of NOS inhibitors on phagocytosis efficiency in M0 and M1 BMDMs. The results showed that treatment with the NOS inhibitor 1400W dihydrochloride suppressed the phagocytic efficiency of activated M1 BMDMs, implying that NOS‑mediated arginine metabolism was crucial for macrophage phagocytosis.

    1400W purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Mol Cell. 2020 Jan 2;77(1):95-107.e5.  [Abstract]

    HT29 cells with depleted PTPS and reconstituted expression of rPTPS R25Q were cultured for 12 h under hypoxia and were treated with the indicated concentration of exogenous BH4 in the presence or absence of 1400W Dihydrochloride (100 μM). The S-nitrosylation detection assay was performed. Addition of a high dosage of exogenous BH4 led to an increased LTBP1 S-nitrosylation under hypoxia in HT29 cells with expression of PTPS R25Q. The effects of exogenous BH4 found here were abolished when cells were treated with the iNOS inhibitor 1400W Dihydrochloride.

    1400W purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Mol Cell. 2020 Jan 2;77(1):95-107.e5.  [Abstract]

    HT29 cells with depleted PTPS and reconstituted expression of rPTPS R25Q were cultured for 12 h under hypoxia and were added with indicated concentrations of exogenous BH4 in the presence or absence of 1400W Dihydrochloride (100 mM). Cells were treated with cycloheximide (CHX; 30 mg/mL) for the indicated length of time at 6 h under hypoxia treatment. Immunoblotting and relative intensities of LTBP1 to beta-actin were analyzed. Addition of a high dosage of exogenous BH4 led to decreased LTBP1 stability and increased LTBP1 ubiquitination. The effects of exogenous BH4 were abolished when cells were treated with the iNOS inhibitor 1400W Dihydrochloride.

    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: ≥ 5 mg/mL (28.21 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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: ≥ 5 mg/mL (28.21 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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.

    • 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.
