Cat. No.: HY-B1127 Purity: 98.69%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Betamipron (N-benzoyl-β-alanine) is a carbapenem β-lactam antibiotic with antibacterial activity against most Gram-positive and Gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Betamipron can target and inhibit renal organic anion transporters, alleviate renal injury caused by Cisplatin (HY-17394), without interfering with the biological activity of cisplatin. Betamipron is often used in combination with panipenem, which can attenuate the renal effects induced by panipenem and slightly promote the proliferation of Clostridium difficile in the cecum. Betamipron can be used in studies related to renal injury and bacterial infection.

In Vitro

Betamipron (1:1 ratio with panipenem) inhibits renal dehydropeptidase-I and kidney anion transport to reduce panipenem-associated kidney toxicity and prevent panipenem hydrolysis by renal DHP-I[3].

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

In Vivo

Betamipron (100 mg/kg; s.c.; once daily; 5 days) as part of a 1:1 panipenem/betamipron formulation results in Clostridium difficile overgrowth in mouse cecal contents by 7 days post-dosing[1].
Betamipron (250 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) significantly suppresses Cisplatin (HY-17394)-induced nephrotoxicity in male Wistar rats; significantly reduced Cisplatin-induced weight loss in male ddY mice and decreased serum BUN levels; and did not alter the antileukemic efficacy of cisplatin in male BDF1 mice carrying P388 leukemia[2].

BDF1 (male, 5 weeks old, 21-24.5 g, P388 leukemia model)
[2]
Dosage: 250 mg/kg
Administration: i.p.; single dose (1 hour after cisplatin)
Result: Blocked cisplatin-induced weight loss, with a 9.37% weight gain versus a 10.8% loss in the cisplatin group. Studies were conducted on male Wistar rats with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
Decreased serum BUN and creatinine to normal levels, which remained high in rats given cisplatin alone. Studies were conducted on male Wistar rats with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
Recovered cisplatin-altered water intake, urine volume and pH. Studies were conducted on male Wistar rats with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
Normalized abnormal urinary biochemical indicators caused by cisplatin. Studies were conducted on male Wistar rats with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
Mitigated cisplatin-triggered weight loss obviously compared with the combination of cisplatin and alkaline solution. Studies were conducted on male ddY mice with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
Reduced elevated serum BUN in mice receiving cisplatin plus alkaline solution. Studies were conducted on male ddY mice with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
Achieved similar survival benefits as cisplatin combined with alkaline solution. Studies were conducted on male BDF1 mice with P388 leukemia.

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 (12.94 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.

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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (12.94 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.

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.
