Description

Mesna (Sodium 2-mercaptoethanesulfonate) is an antioxidant which has cytoprotective effects. Mesna is widely used as a systemic protective agent against chemotherapy toxicity. Mesna is also used to reduce hemorrhagic cystitis induced by cyclophosphamide[1][2].

In Vitro

Mesna (1-1000 μM) reduces H2O2, HOCl and OH• concentrations in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 32, 21, and 305 μM, respectively in cell-free experiments[3].

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

In Vivo

Mesna (150 mg/kg; a single i.p.) protects the rat brain against traumatic injury[1].
Mesna (200 mg/kg; a single i.p.) attenuates the cisplatin-induced ovarian damages in rats[2].

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

Animal Model: Adult male Wistar Albino rats (250-350 g) are suffered traumatic brain injury (TBI)[1]
Dosage: 150 mg/kg
Administration: A single i.p.
Result: Decreased tissue malondialdehyde levels.
Increased the activity of glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase.
Decreased the levels of nitric oxide, nitric oxide synthetase and xanthine oxidase.
Protected the brain tissues well from injury.

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.
