During recordings, CFTRinh-172 (apical, 10 µM) and Bumetanide (basolateral, 100 µM) were added sequentially after stimulation of CFTR with CPT-cAMP. Dotted and dashed lines indicate the baseline for cAMP-activated current and zero current level, as in previous legends. The graphs report the fraction of the cAMP-activated current blocked by CFTRinh-172 (I-172), bumetanide alone (bum) or both compounds together (tot).

    Description

    Bumetanide (Ro 10-6338; PF 1593), a highly potent loop diuretic, is a Na+-K+-Cl+ cotransporter (NKCC) blocker. Bumetanide is a selective NKCC1 inhibitor, but also inhibits NKCC2, with IC50s of 0.68 μM and 4.0 μM for hNKCC1A and hNKCC2A, respectively[1][2].

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 0.68 μM (hNKCC1A), 4.0 μM (hNKCC2A)[1]

    In Vitro

    Bumetanide has inhibitory effects for the two major human splice variants of NKCCs, hNKCC1A, and hNKCC2A [1].
    Bumetanide (0.03-100 μM; 5 minutes) inhibits the 86Rb+ uptake in NKCC1A-expressing oocytes in a dose-dependent manner[1].
    Bumetanide inhibits NKCC2 isoform B in HEK-293 cells with an IC50 value of 0.54 μM[2].

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

    In Vivo

    Bumetanide (7.6-30.4 mg/kg; i.v.) attenuates the decrease in apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) ratios for both cortex and striatum (by 40-67%), indicating reduced edema formation[3].
    Bumetanide also reduces infarct size[3].
    Bumetanide shows different half-lives of 21.4 min, 53.8 min, and 137 min following 2 mg/kg, 8 mg/kg, and 20 mg/kg intravenous injection, respectively, in rats[4].

    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 (6.86 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% Corn Oil

      Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.86 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

    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.
