  3. Dantrolene

Dantrolene is an orally active, non-competitive glutathione reductase inhibitor with a Ki of 111.6 μM and an IC50 of 52.3 μM. Dantrolene is also a calcium channel protein inhibitor. Dantrolene inhibits the release of Ca2+ from RyR1 and RyR3, which can be beneficial in a variety of pathologies caused by disruptions in calcium homeostasis (e.g., stroke, ischemia/reperfusion injury, and neurodegenerative diseases). Dantrolene offers relief of muscle spasms, malignant hyperthermia, and antitoxic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory properties.

    Dantrolene purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Nat Commun. 2025 Nov 18;16(1):10110.  [Abstract]

    Dose-dependent effects of Dantrolene (DAN) and AZU on ER luminal [Ca2+] changes in cell lines expressing RyR1 R2163C. The reslts showed that effectively Dantrolene (DAN) inhibited Ca2+ leakage, with IC50 value of 0.26 μM.

    Dantrolene purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: J Cell Commun Signal. 2023 Dec;17(4):1309-1321.  [Abstract]

    Effect of 2 µM LETX-VI treatment on cytosolic Ca2+ level when RyRs in ER membrane was inhibited by Dantrolene (30 µM). The results demonstrated that blockade of RyR by Dantrolene decreased the F340/F380 ratio, indicating that RyR is involved in LETX-VI-induced Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum.

    In Vitro

    Dantrolene (50 μM) sodium alleviates malignant hyperthermia by preventing overactive Ca2+ release by increasing the affinity of ryanodine receptor (RyR) for Mg2+ in rat skin fibers[2].
    Dantrolene (30 μM, 1 h-3 days) sodium ameliorates the impairment of neurogenesis and synaptogenesis, in association with restoring intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and physiological autophagy, cell survival and proliferation in induced pluripotent stem cells derived from patients with Alzheimer's disease [3].
    Dantrolene (40 μM, 12 h) sodium enhances the protective effect of hypothermia on cerebral cortex neurons, including improved morphology, increased survival and mitochondrial membrane potential, decreased intracellular reactive oxygen species, cytoplasmic histone-associated DNA fragmentation and apoptosis[7].

    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.
