Meldonium  (Synonyms: MET-88; Quaterin)

Cat. No.: HY-B1836 Purity: ≥98.0%
COA Handling Instructions

Meldonium (MET-88) functions as a cardioprotective agent by cpmpetetively inhibiting γ-butyrobetaine hydroxylase (BBOX) and carnitine/organic cation transporter type 2 (OCTN2). Mildronate (Meldonium) exhibits IC50 values of 34-62 μM for human recombinant BBOX and an EC50 of 21 μM for human OCTN2. Meldonium is a fatty acid oxidation inhibitor.

Description

Meldonium (MET-88) functions as a cardioprotective agent by cpmpetetively inhibiting γ-butyrobetaine hydroxylase (BBOX) and carnitine/organic cation transporter type 2 (OCTN2). Mildronate (Meldonium) exhibits IC50 values of 34-62 μM for human recombinant BBOX and an EC50 of 21 μM for human OCTN2. Meldonium is a fatty acid oxidation inhibitor[1][2].

IC50 & Target

IC50: 34-62 μM (human recombinant BBOX).
EC50: 21 μM (human OCTN2).

In Vitro

Meldonium (20-40 μM; 24 h) ameliorates lung injury by targeting PFKP to regulate glycolysis, which promotes Nrf2 translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus to alleviate oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage under hypoxic condition[3].

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

RT-PCR[3]

Cell Line: Rat alveolar type II epithelial RLE-6TN cells in hypoxia incubator
Concentration: 20, or 40 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Significantly decreased the mRNA expression of PFKP, PDK1, and PKM2 compared with the hypoxia group.

Western Blot Analysis[3]

Cell Line: Rat alveolar type II epithelial RLE-6TN cells in hypoxia incubator
Concentration: 20, or 40 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Significantly reduced the protein expression of PFKP, PKM2, and LDHA.
In Vivo

Meldonium (50, 100, or 200 mg/kg; once daily for 3 days) modestly attenuates hypoxia-induced lung injury in mice[3].

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.
