Calhex 231 hydrochloride is a potent negative allosteric modulator that blocks (IC50 = 0.39 μM) increases in [3H]inositol phosphates elicited by activating the human wild-type CaSR transiently Ca2+-sensing receptor. Calhex 231 hydrochloride can be used in the study of traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) and diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM).

Description

Calhex 231 hydrochloride is a potent negative allosteric modulator that blocks (IC50 = 0.39 μM) increases in [3H]inositol phosphates elicited by activating the human wild-type CaSR transiently Ca2+-sensing receptor. Calhex 231 hydrochloride can be used in the study of traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) and diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM)[1].

IC50 & Target

CaSR[1]
IC50: 0.39 μM (Inositol phosphate)[2]

In Vitro

Calhex 231 dose-dependently inhibited the IP response induced by 10 mM Ca2+ with a potency in the T764A (IC50 = 0.28 ± 0.05 μM) and H766A (IC50 = 0.64 ± 0.03 μM) mutant receptors similar to that in the WT receptor[1]. Calhex 231 treatment significantly downregulates the CaSR, α-SMA, Col-I/III, MMP2/9 expresses. Calhex231 alleviates high glucose-induced myocardial fibrosis in cardiac fibroblasts[2].
Calhex 231 could inhibit Itch (atrophin-1 interacting protein 4)-ubiquitin proteasome and TGF-β1/Smads pathways, and then depress the proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts, along with the reduction deposition of collagen, alleviate glucose-induced myocardial fibrosis[2].

Cell Proliferation Assay[1]

Cell Line: Primary neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs)
Concentration: 3 µM
Incubation Time: 24 hours
Result: Significantly decreased the proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: Primary neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs)
Concentration: 3 µM
Incubation Time: 48 hours
Result: The expression of CaSR, α-SMA, Col-I/III, MMP2/9 were significantly downregulated.
In Vivo

Calhex 231 (4.07 mg/kg (10 µmol/kg); intraperitoneal injection; daily; for 12 weeks; male Wistar rats) treatment ameliorates diabetic myocardial fibrosis in type 1 diabetic model (T1D) rats[2].
Calhex-231 (Cal, 0.1-1 mg/kg) has a mitigating effect on traumatic hemorrhagic shock by improving vascular hyporesponsiveness and reducing mitochondrial dysfunction[3].

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

Animal Model: Male Wistar rats (8 weeks old) injected with Streptozotocin[1]
Dosage: 4.07 mg/kg (10 µmol/kg)
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; daily; for 12 weeks
Result: Ameliorated diabetic myocardial fibrosis in T1D rats.
Animal Model: Four hundred and fifty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (half male and half female)[3].
Dosage: 0.1, 1, or 5 mg/kg.
Administration: A continuous infusion.
Result: In all groups, MAP, LVSP, and ±dp/dtmax decreased significantly after shock.
Administration of 5 or 1 mg/kg Cal resulted in significantly increased values at 1 and 2 hr postadministration, compared to rats in the LR only group (or 0.01).
Rats treated with 1 mg/kg Cal demonstrated the greatest recovery.
LR infusion induced short-term and slightly increase of blood pressor in normal rats.
Cal (1 mg/kg) without LR infusion did not restore the decreased MAP after shock.

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 (5.64 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.64 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.
