Description

Tifenazoxide (NN414) is a potent, orally active and SUR1/Kir6.2 selective KATP channels opener. Tifenazoxide has antidiabetic effect, can inhibit glucose stimulated insulin release in vitro and in vivo, and has a beneficial effect on glucose homeostasis[1][2].

IC50 & Target

KATP channels[1][2]

In Vitro

Tifenazoxide (NN414) hyperpolarises βTC3 cell membranes, and inhibits insulin release from βTC6, from isolated rat islets and from human islets at least a 100-fold more potent than Diazoxide[2].
The EC50 values for Tifenazoxide and diazoxide are 0.45 and 31 µM, respectively in the patch-clamp assay. Tifenazoxide (100 µM) activates Kir6.2/SUR1 channels, but not Kir6.2/SUR2A or Kir6.2/SUR2 channels, expressed in Xenopus oocytes both in whole-cell and inside-out macropatch recordings[2].
Tifenazoxide is a potent inhibitor of glucose stimulated insulin release from βTC6 cells (IC50 = 0.15 µM)[1].

In Vivo

Tifenazoxide (NN414; 1.5 mg/kg; oral administration; twice daily; for 3 weeks; male VDF Zucker (fa/fa) rat) treatment for 3 weeks in VDF rats reduces basal hyperglycemia, improves glucose tolerance, and reduces hyperinsulinemia during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and improves insulin secretory responsiveness ex vivo[1].

Dosage: 1.5 mg/kg
Administration: Oral administration; twice daily; for 3 weeks

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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.57 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.57 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.
