Tranilast  (Synonyms: MK-341; SB 252218)

Cat. No.: HY-B0195 Purity: 99.57%
COA Handling Instructions

Tranilast (MK-341) acts as an anti-atopic agent. Tranilast suppresses production of prostaglandin D2 (PGD2, IC50= 0.1 mM). Tranilast sodium exhibits anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Tranilast sodium antagonizes angiotensin II and inhibits its biological effects in vascular smooth muscle cells.

    Description

    Tranilast (MK-341) acts as an anti-atopic agent. Tranilast suppresses production of prostaglandin D2 (PGD2, IC50= 0.1 mM). Tranilast sodium exhibits anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects[1]. Tranilast sodium antagonizes angiotensin II and inhibits its biological effects in vascular smooth muscle cells[2].

    In Vitro

    Tranilast exhibits significant immunomodulatory activity inhibiting Endotoxin-induced prostaglandin E2 (PGE2; IC50=~1-20 μM), thromboxane B2 (IC50=~10-50 μM), (TGF-β1; IC50=~100-200 μM), and IL-8 (IC50=~100 μM) formation. A23187-induced monocyte leukotriene C4 or PGE2 formation is inhibited by Tranilast at IC50s of 10-40 μM and 2-20 μM, respectively[3].
    Tranilast (10-200 μM) exhibits the anti-proliferative effect in a dose-dependent manner in both MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. Tranilast also (10-200μM) enhances the anti-tumor effects of Tamoxifen (1-20 μM) on human breast cancer cells in vitro[4].
    Tranilast (12.5, 25, 50, 100 μg/mL; 72 hours) inhibits proliferation of HDMECs[5].

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

    Cell Proliferation Assay[4]

    Cell Line: MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells
    Concentration: 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 μM
    Incubation Time: 48 hours
    Result: Anti-proliferative effect in a dose-dependent manner in both cell lines.

    Cell Viability Assay[5]

    Cell Line: Human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMECs)
    Concentration: 12.5, 25, 50, 100 μg/mL
    Incubation Time: 72 hours
    Result: IC50 value was 44.3 μg/mL (136 μM).
    In Vivo

    Tranilast (300 mg/kg; administered orally twice a day for 3 days) dose-dependently suppresses angiogenesis in mice[5].

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

    Animal Model: Nine-week-old male C57BL/6 mice[5]
    Dosage: 300 mg/kg
    Administration: Administered orally twice a day for 3 days
    Result: Suppressed the VEGF-induced angiogenesis in matrigel; 58% of significant suppression was observed at a dose of 300 mg/kg.
    The ED50 value and 95% confidence limits were 165 mg/kg and 162±169 mg/kg, respectively.

    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.
