Tolterodine tartrate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Tolterodine tartrate (Kabi-2234) is a mAChR inhibitor and substrate for cytochrome P450 enzymes. Tolterodine tartrate competitively binds acetylcholine, reduces sympathetic excitation, and inhibits involuntary bladder muscle contraction. Tolterodine tartrate restores the Nrf2/NF-κB signaling pathway, mediates protection against inflammatory response and ferroptosis. Tolterodine tartrate ameliorates LPS (HY-D1056)-induced reactive oxygen species production and lipid oxidation. Tolterodine tartrate can be used for the research of urinary tract infections and overactive bladder.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Tolterodine (0-500 μM; 4 h) tartrate induced a concentration-dependent reduction in viability of HepG2-CYP3A4 cells, with a TC50 of 414 μM[1].
Tolterodine (20-40 μM; 24 h, co-treated with 10 mg/L LPS) tartrate dose-dependently ameliorates LPS-induced oxidative stress in hBEC 5637 cells by reducing intracellular ROS and lipid oxidation (MDA) levels after 24 h of co-treatment with LPS[2].
Tolterodine (20-40 μM; 24 h, co-treated with 10 mg/L LPS) tartrate dose-dependently inhibits LPS-induced production of IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α in hBEC 5637 cells after 24 h of co-treatment with LPS[2].
Tolterodine (20-40 μM; 24 h, co-treated with 10 mg/L LPS) tartrate reduces LPS-induced intracellular Fe2+ accumulation and reverses dysregulated iron homeostasis markers (Ferritin, TFR1) in hBEC 5637 cells after 24 h of co-treatment with LPS[2].
Tolterodine (20-40 μM; 24 h, co-treated with 10 mg/L LPS) tartrate dose-dependently attenuates LPS-induced ferroptosis in hBEC 5637 cells by normalizing ferroptosis marker levels and restoring cell viability after 24 h of co-treatment with LPS[2].
Tolterodine (20-40 μM; 24 h, co-treated with 10 mg/L LPS) tartrate restores the Nrf2/NF-κB signaling balance in LPS-challenged hBEC 5637 cells after 24 h of co-treatment with LPS[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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.26 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.

ROS/oxidative-stress fluorescent staining
ROS/oxidative-stress fluorescent staining uses cell-permeant fluorogenic probes that become fluorescent after oxidation inside cells or tissues; commonly used examples include DCFH-DA/DCFDA for broad cellular oxidant detection, DHE for superoxide-related signal detection, MitoSOX for mitochondrial superoxide-related signal detection, and CellROX probes for oxidative-stress-associated fluorescence readouts. The assay detects probe oxidation rather than a single ROS species unless the probe and analysis method have been chemically validated for that species. DCFH-DA enters cells, is deacetylated by intracellular esterases to DCFH, and produces fluorescent DCF after oxidation, so the readout is used as an operational measure of total cellular oxidative stress rather than a species-specific ROS measurement. DHE and MitoSOX can report superoxide-related oxidation, but red fluorescence alone can include non-specific ethidium-like oxidation products; HPLC or optimized spectral approaches are

Research Protocol for Inflammation-related Diseases
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a cytosolic innate immune signaling platform that integrates priming signals and danger-signal activation to promote caspase-1 activation, maturation of IL-1β and IL-18, and gasdermin D-mediated pyroptotic cell death. The core experimental logic is to determine whether inflammatory disease phenotypes are driven by increased NLRP3 expression, ASC-containing inflammasome assembly, caspase-1 cleavage, GSDMD cleavage, and extracellular release of IL-1β/IL-18 rather than by nonspecific cell injury alone. The pathway is strongly linked to inflammation-related disease phenotypes because monosodium urate crystals activate NALP3/NLRP3 inflammasome signaling in gout-like crystal inflammation, cholesterol crystals activate NLRP3 inflammasomes in atherogenesis models, and DSS-induced intestinal inflammation has been reported to involve NLRP3 inflammasome activity. However, experimental colitis studies also show context-dependent protective effects of NLRP3 inflammasome co

Ferroptosis Solutions
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form of regulated cell death characterized by lethal lipid peroxidation and sensitivity to suppression by iron chelators or lipophilic radical-trapping antioxidants. The core pathway links cystine uptake through system Xc−, glutathione availability, GPX4-dependent detoxification of phospholipid hydroperoxides, iron-dependent oxidative reactions, and polyunsaturated-phospholipid metabolism into a cell-death program that is biochemically and morphologically distinct from apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy. The ferroptosis pathway is experimentally linked to phenotype through chemical and genetic perturbation. Erastin induces ferroptosis by inhibiting cystine uptake through system Xc− and weakening antioxidant defenses, while GPX4 inhibition or depletion causes lipid peroxide accumulation and ferroptotic cancer-cell death. ACSL4 and oxidizable arachidonoyl- or adrenoyl-containing phosphatidylethanolamines shape ferroptosis sensitivity by con
