Description

Metipranolol is a nonselective and orally active β-adrenergic receptor antagonist. Metipranolol can be used for hypertension and glaucoma research[1][2].

IC50 & Target[2]

β1 adrenoceptor

8.3 (pA2)

β2 adrenoceptor

8.4 (pA2)

In Vitro

In vitro β1- and β2-adrenoceptor antagonism is evaluated using the guinea pig atrium and the rat uterus, respectively. The respective pA2 values are 8.3 and 8.4[2].
Metipranolol significantly reduces iron/ascorbate-induced lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenates with an IC50 value of 6.9 μM . Metipranolol also concentration-dependently inhibits sodium nitroprusside-stimulated lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenates, displaying an IC50 value of 25.1 μM[3].

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

In Vivo

At postnatal day 35 (P35), rd10 mice given daily subcutaneous injections of 40 mg/kg of Metipranolol has reduction in markers of nitrosative stress, fewer TUNEL-positive cells, increased outer nuclear layer thickness, and substantially more staining for rhodopsin. At P50, Metipranolol-treated rd10 mice has decreased 3-nitrotyrosine staining in the retina, increased immunostaining for cone arrestin, a marker for cone photoreceptors, and significantly higher scotopic and photopic b-wave amplitudes at the highest stimulus intensity. At P65, cone density is significantly higher in Metipranolol-treated versus vehicle-injected rd10 mice[1].

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.72 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.72 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

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.
