COA Handling Instructions

Rivastigmine (S-Rivastigmine) is an orally active and potent cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitor and inhibits butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and acetylcholinesteras (AChE) with IC50s of 0.037 μM , 4.15 μM, respectively. Rivastigmine can pass the blood brain barrier (BBB). Rivastigmine is a parasympathomimetic or cholinergic agent used for the research of mild to moderate dementia of the Alzheimer's type and dementia due to Parkinson's disease.

Description

Rivastigmine (S-Rivastigmine) is an orally active and potent cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitor and inhibits butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and acetylcholinesteras (AChE) with IC50s of 0.037 μM , 4.15 μM, respectively. Rivastigmine can pass the blood brain barrier (BBB). Rivastigmine is a parasympathomimetic or cholinergic agent used for the research of mild to moderate dementia of the Alzheimer's type and dementia due to Parkinson's disease[1][2].

IC50 & Target

IC50: 0.037 μM (BChE) and 4.15 μM (AChE)[1]

In Vitro

Rivastigmine (S-Rivastigmine; 1 µM; 24 hours) reduces LPS (2.5 µg/ml)-induced TNF-α and IL-6 by 50% and 46% combined with carbachol (10 µM), respectively and does not cause any significant reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokines [3].
Rivastigmine (1 µM), carbachol (10 µM), or a combination of both drugs, does not have a cytotoxic effect on activated cells[3].

In Vivo

Rivastigmine (S-Rivastigmine; 0.5-2.5 mg/kg; IP; 60 min before the tests) significantly and dose-dependently improved the behavioral impairments caused by Aluminum (HY-B1521)[4].
Rivastigmine (0.5, 1 mg/kg/day; s.c; for 8 days) reduces by about 50% and 60% respectively, the concentration of IL-6 but not those of TNF-α and IL-1β in BALB/c OlaHsd male mice aged 8-9 weeks weighing 200–250 g with acute colitis[3].
Rivastigmine (1 mg/kg), but not (0.5 mg/kg), partially antagonized colon shrinkage and completely prevented bleeding. Treatment with rivastigmine (0.5 mg/kg) causes little change in these pathological manifestations, but rivastigmine (1 mg/kg) causes a partial restoration of the structure of the crypts and a reduction in sub-mucosal edema and cell infiltration. Rivastigmine (1 mg/kg) causes a 4.7% reduction in body weight at the end of the experiment[3].

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 (9.99 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% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.99 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.

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.
