Tramiprosate
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Tramiprosate (Homotaurine), an orally active and brain-penetrant natural amino acid found in various species of red marine algae. Tramiprosate binds to soluble Aβ and maintains Aβ in a non-fibrillar form. Tramiprosate is also a GABA analog and possess neuroprotection, anticonvulsion and antihypertension effects.

Biological Activity
Tramiprosate (200 μg/mL, 40 μg/mL, 8 μg/mL and 1.6 μg/mL; 1 hours) significantly attenuates oxygen/glucose deprivation (OGD)- or NMDA-induced injury in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells and primary cortical neurons. Tramiprosate decreases the intensity of the association between nNOS and PSD95, and Tramiprosate also inhibits the translocation of nNOS from the cytosol to the membrane[1].

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 20 mg/mL (143.71 mM; Need ultrasonic)
DMSO : 1 mg/mL (7.19 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
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, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.
* 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.
