Description

Almitrine mesylate, a peripheral chemoreceptor agonist, inhibits selectively the Ca2+-dependent K+ channel.

IC50 & Target

K+ channel[1]

In Vitro

Almitrine inhibits the activity of a high-conductance (152±13 pS), Ca2+-dependent K+ channel by decreasing its open probability. The IC50 value of the effect is 0.22 μM. The inhibitory effect of Almitrine on Ca2+-dependent K+ channels also is observed in GH3 cells. Almitrine at concentrations up to 10 μM does not affect whole-cell voltage-dependent K+, Ca2+, or Na+ currents in rat or rabbit cells. However, this concentration of Almitrine significantly inhibits the Ca2+-dependent component of K+ currents in rat chemoreceptor cells[1].

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

In Vivo

Almitrine acts via the peripheral arterial chemoreceptors raising carotid sinus nerve output and minute ventilation. Almitrine also has a pulmonary vascular action causing a dose-dependent constriction and dilatation. At low doses Almitrine enhances hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and may improve the overall ventilation/perfusion ratio[2].

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 (3.73 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (3.73 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Rats[2]
8-week-old male spf Wistar rats are used. Rats are anaesthetized with Thiobarbiturate inactin (BYK, 100 mg/kg, i.p.). The interaction of the ventilatory response to hypoxia and an intermittent (2 min on, 1 min break) low-dose (10 μg/kg per min) and high-dose (80 μg/kg per min) infusion of S9581 or Almitrine is tested in control and chronically hypoxic rats. S9581 or Almitrine is infused intravenously (100 μg/ mL). Inspired oxygen levels were controlled by passing oxygen-nitrogen mixtures across the tracheal port at a flow rate of 3-41 min-1[2].

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.
