Acetohexamide
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Acetohexamide is an orally active first-generation sulfonylurea agent used in research related to type 2 diabetes and cancer. Acetohexamide exerts reductase activity in human erythrocytes. Acetohexamide stimulates the pancreas to secrete insulin. Acetohexamide inhibits ATP-sensitive potassium channels in the β cells of the pancreas. Acetohexamide can inhibit the formation of circular chemorepellent induced defects (CCIDs) in lymphendothelial cell (LEC) monolayers. Acetohexamide inhibits markers of epithelial-to-mesenchymal-transition and migration. Acetohexamide suppresses the synthesis of 12(S)-HETE. Acetohexamide can potentiate hypoglycaemic action.

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 (7.71 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.
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.
