Trequinsin hydrochloride
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Trequinsin hydrochloride (HL 725) is a PDE inhibitor, CatSper channel activator, and sperm potassium channel modulator. Trequinsin hydrochloride targets PDE3 with an IC50 of <1 nM. Trequinsin hydrochloride enhances currents and elevates intracellular calcium and cGMP levels via direct activation of the CatSper channel, while inhibiting the outward current conductance of sperm potassium channels. Without inducing premature acrosome reaction, Trequinsin hydrochloride significantly enhances sperm hyperactivated motility, forward motility, and the ability to penetrate viscous media. Trequinsin hydrochloride exerts age-specific positive inotropic and positive lusitropic effects on rabbit ventricular papillary muscles. Trequinsin hydrochloride has been used in studies on the mechanisms underlying male infertility (e.g., asthenozoospermia).

Biological Activity
|
PDE3 |
Trequinsin hydrochloride (40 μM; 82 min) induces a high-magnitude increase in intracellular calcium in pooled capacitated human donor sperm, equivalent to 91% of the response evoked by 10 μM Progesterone (HY-N0437)[1].
Trequinsin hydrochloride (0.1-30 μM) induces a concentration-dependent increase in intracellular calcium in capacitated human donor sperm with an EC50 of 3.43 μM, exhibits efficacy equivalent to progesterone at 10 μM, and cross-desensitises with PGE1 but not progesterone[1].
Trequinsin hydrochloride (10 μM; 120 min) significantly and sustainably increases hyperactivated motility in capacitated human donor sperm (80% density gradient centrifugation fraction) without altering total or progressive motility[1].
Trequinsin hydrochloride (10 μM; 120 min) significantly increases progressive motility in poor-motility human donor sperm (40% density gradient centrifugation fraction) under both capacitating and non-capacitating conditions, and increases hyperactivated motility under capacitating conditions[1].
Trequinsin hydrochloride (10 μM; 120 min) increases hyperactivated motility in the majority of capacitated human patient sperm samples, with no effect on total or progressive motility in most cases[1].
Trequinsin hydrochloride (10 μM; 20 min) does not induce premature acrosome reaction in capacitated human donor sperm[1].

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.71 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.71 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.
