Tapencarium
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Tapencarium (RZL-012; Utenpanium chloride) is an injectable fat volume-reducing agent. Tapencarium irreversibly impairs cell membrane integrity, increases membrane permeability, induces elevated cytoplasmic calcium, alters mitochondrial membrane potential, and triggers necrosis. Tapencarium induces fat necrosis, inflammatory responses and fibrous tissue formation at the injection site. Tapencarium can be used in research related to submental fat excess and Dercum's disease.

Biological Activity
Tapencarium (RZL-012) (0.01-300 μM; 2-24 h) reduces the viability of Wi38 human lung fibroblasts and differentiated human visceral adipocytes in a time-dependent manner[2].
Tapencarium (12.5-400 μM; 2 h) directly disrupts the integrity of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived nanoghost membranes in a dose-dependent manner, causing increased permeability, reduced nanoghost counts, and full membrane destruction at high concentrations[2].
Tapencarium (0.03-100 μM; 2-24 h) induces dose- and time-dependent membrane disruption in differentiated human adipocytes, with early increases in intracellular calcium and membrane permeability preceding mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death[2].

Animal Model:Domestic Yorkshire crossbred (male and female, initial weight 73.5-86.5 kg (males) and 74.0-84.5 kg (females), subcutaneous abdominal fat injection model)[2]
-
Dosage:25 mg per injection site; 500 mg per pig
-
Administration:s.c.; single multiinjection session
-
Result:Induced marked liponecrosis and slight inflammation with no detectable fibrosis at 24 hours postdosing.
Decreased liponecrosis and inflammation scores to ~1.2 and ~0.4, respectively, while increasing fibrosis to a mean score ~1.0 at 14 days postdosing.
Reduced liponecrosis and inflammation scores to 0, and increased fibrosis to a mean score ~1.7 at 84 days postdosing.
Achieved a mean 18% reduction in fat thickness at injected sites compared to noninjected sites at 84 days postdosing.

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 50 mg/mL (102.31 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, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

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.
