Meglumine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Meglumine (Methylglucamine) is an orally active amino sugar derived from sorbitol. Meglumine has anti-inflammatory and antitumor activity. Meglumine is often used as an excipient in active molecules and with iodinated compounds in contrast agents such as meglumine and meglumine iodide.

Biological Activity
Meglumine (40 or 80 mM, 24 h; 50 mM, 24 h) dose-dependently reduces the levels of inflammatory factors in THP-1 human myeloid cells and RAW264.7 mouse macrophage cells (Elisa assay)[2].
Meglumine (0-300 mM, 60 min) dose-dependently increases SNARK expression levels in C2C12 mouse myoblasts[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Line:C2C12 mouse myoblasts
-
Concentration:0, 10, 30, 100, 300 mM or 200 mM

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 50 mg/mL (256.13 mM; Need ultrasonic)
DMSO : 10 mg/mL (51.23 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
