Mexiletine hydrochloride
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Mexiletine is an orally effective antiarrhythmic agent which has also been found to be effective for myotonia and neuropathic pain. Mexiletine exerts its efficacy through blocking sodium channels (IC50 : 75±8 μM for tonic block, 23.6±2.8 μM for use-dependent block), therefore can be used for cardiovascular and neurological research.
For research use only. We do not sell to patients.

Biological Activity
IC50: 75±8 μM for tonic block, 23.6±2.8 μM for use-dependent block (sodium channel of HEK293 transfected with hNav1.5 plasmid)[2]
Mexiletine (10µM, 48 h) increases peak INa and late INa in HEK293A cells transfected with SCN5A-WT or SCN5A-1795insD while Mexiletine (10µM, 5 min) blocks the late INa[3].

Animal Model:Male Sprague-Dawley rats with Oxaliplatin (HY-17371)-induced neuropathic pain [4]
-
Dosage:Oxaliplatin (4 mg /kg) and Mexiletine(10, 30, 100 mg/kg)
-
Administration:Oxaliplatin, Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.)in days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, and 23; Mexiletine, Oral gavage (p.o.), acute administration
-
Result:100 mg/kg completely reversed the reduction of 50% paw withdrawal threshold by Oxaliplatin at 60 min after administration in the von Frey test, completely reversed the increase of number of withdrawal responses at 60 and 120 min after administration in the acetone test.
30 mg/kg partly reversed the symptom and 10 mg/kg did not reverse any symptom. The effect disappeared by 180 min after administration.

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 100 mg/mL (463.56 mM; Need ultrasonic)
DMSO : ≥ 41 mg/mL (190.06 mM; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
* "≥" means soluble, but saturation unknown.
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (11.59 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 (11.59 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.
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.
For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:
It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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.
