Description

Fantofarone is a highly potent Calcium Channel antagonist.

IC50 & Target

Calcium Channel[1].

In Vitro

It can be seen that the calcium channel blockers VIZ and Fantofarone (SR) possess a weak intrinsic antimalarial property compared to CQ, and both appear slightly more potent on the CQ-resistant than on the CQ-sensitive parasites. Interestingly, Fantofarone is ca. 10 times more potent than verapamil. Fantofarone (SR) is 10 times more potent than the phenylalkylamine verapamil (VR) on the two P. fdciparum strains. As revealed by the isobolograms, the two calcium channel blockers potentiate the CQ sensitivity activity on the CQ-resistant P. fufcipurum strain, verapamil appearing 2 to 3 times more potent than Fantofarone. Furthermore, when used at similar subinhibitory fractions of their IC50, VR is 2 to 3 times more potent than Fantofarone in decreasing CQ resistance[1].

In Vivo

Treatment with isosorbide dinitrate (0.3 mg/kg, i.v.) or Fantofarone (50 mg/kg, i.v.), a reduction is observed in the occurrence and severity of vasospasm, whereas verapamil (0.2 mg/kg, i.v.) is much less effective. Although it totally inhibits distal AIV, isosorbide dinitrate does not significantly affect proximal diameter decrease. The most potent compound with regard to both the distal and proximal vasospasms is Fantofarone, which significantly reduces AIV throughout the experiment. Verapamil does not reduce AIV significantly[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 (4.54 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 (4.54 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.

Rabbits[2]
Male White rabbits are used in this study (3.0-3.2 kg). All surgical procedures are performed under anaesthesia with a mixture of ketamine and xylazine. At the end of the experiments, the animals are sacrificed by a pentobarbital overdose. The proximal femoral arteries are exposed, and the isolated arterial segments are desiccated by air infusion delivered at a rate of 80 mL/min for 8 min. After desiccation is completed, the ligatures are released and flow is restored. At the day of surgery, a 2% cholesterol/6% peanut oil diet is started for 2 weeks. Before angioplasty, the animals are randomized in 4 groups of 10 animals:1. Placebo, 1 mL/kg of NaCl 0.9%, 2. Isosorbide dinitrate, 0.3 mg/kg, 3. Verapamil, 0.2 mg/kg, 4. Fantofarone, 50 mg/kg. The doses of isosorbide dinitrate, verapamil, and fantofarone are defined in a pilot experiment as the highest doses which did not show any hypotensive effect per se and are chosen very carefully according to their activity measured in other pharmacological models[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.
