Adamantanine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Adamantanine (2-Aminoadamantane-2-carboxylic acid) inhibits the transport of methionine (Ki is 0.76 mM) and leucine into Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells. Adamantanine inhibits proliferation of P388 lymphocytic leukemia cells with an IC50 of >1 mM. Adamantanine inhibits the leucine aminopeptidase with an I/S0.5 of 10.5.

Protocols
-
Cell Cytotoxicity Assay
Cytotoxicity assays are usually based on the assessment of cell membrane damage, which can also be indirectly detected by measuring cell viability. Detection methods include MTT assay, CKK-8 assay, LDH assay and ATP assay, etc.
-
Cell Viability Determination by MTT Colorimetric Assay
The following protocol uses the MTT colorimetric assay as a classic literature-established method for assessing cell viability/metabolic activity in cultured mammalian cells. MTT[3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] is reduced by metabolically active cells to a colored formazan product; the amount of formazan is quantified spectrophotometrically and provides an indirect measure of metabolically active viable cells. Importantly, MTT reduction reflects cellular oxidoreductase/metabolic activity rather than an absolute direct count of living cells, so changes in cellular metabolism can alter the signal independently of cell number.
