Description

In Vitro

Barusiban shows affinity for oxytocin receptor (K_i=0.8 nM) in COS cells expressed with oxytocin receptor^[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Barusiban (intravenous injection; 50 or 150 μg/kg; once) treatment shows inhibition on OT-induced contractions^[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model:	Pregnant cynomolgus monkeys injected with oxytocin (OT)^[2]
Dosage:	50 or 150 μg/kg
Administration:	Intravenous injection; 50 or 150 μg/kg; once
Result:	Reduced uterine contractions to baseline levels effectively. Reduced intrauterine pressure (IUP) from 6-7.5 kmm Hg•h to approximately 1 kmm Hg•h.

Dilution Calculator

The molarity calculator equation

Mass (g) = Concentration (mol/L) × Volume (L) × Molecular Weight (g/mol)

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration _(start) × Volume _(start) = Concentration _(final) × Volume _(final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

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.
