Description

Oxcarbazepine is a sodium channel blocker[1]. Oxcarbazepine significantly inhibits glioblastoma cell growth and induces apoptosis or G2/M arrest in glioblastoma cell lines[2]. Anti-cancer and anticonvulsant effects[2][3].

IC50 & Target

Sodium Channel[1].

In Vitro

Oxcarbazepine significantly inhibits glioblastoma cell growth and reaches IC50 at therapeutic concentrations. The IC50s of Oxcarbazepine screened with the U87 and T98 cell lines are 12.35 and 9.45 μg/mL,respectively[2].

Cell Viability Assay[2]

Cell Line: Human glioma cell lines U-87 MG and T98G
Concentration: 2.5, 5, 10, 20, and 40 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 72 hours
Result: The growth inhibition for the T98G cell line for each concentration was 17.7±4.1% (2.5 μg/mL), 21.1±3.6% (5 μg/mL), 53.6±14.2% (10 μg/mL), 82.2±2.3% (20 μg/mL), and 85.0±2.3% (40 μg/mL).
The growth inhibition for U-87 MG cell line for each concentration was −1.7±5.1% (0.008 μg/mL), 5.3±2.4% (0.08 μg/mL), 3.5±7.4% (0.8 μg/mL), 0.3±9.2% (16 μg/mL), and −4.2±9.6% (40 μg/mL).
In Vivo

Oxcarbazepine protectes mice and rats against generalized tonic-clonic seizures induced by electroshock with ED50 values between 13.5 and 20.5 mg/kg p.o. No tolerance toward this anticonvulsant effect is observed when rats are treated with Oxcarbazepine daily for 4 weeks.

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: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (6.62 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (16.7 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: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (6.62 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 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 (16.7 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, 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.
