Product Description
Alarelin acetate is a synthetic GnRH agonist.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Alarelin considerably reduced the cell viability when compared to when it wasn't present. A concentration of 10-5 M was found to have the greatest stimulatory effect on cell viability, and this effect was dose-dependent[1].
ln Vivo
Alarelin has the ability to directly affect rat parietal cells and also inhibit vagous function, which can both reduce the secretion of gastric acid[2]. Alarelin has the ability to dramatically increase the G1 phase ratio and decrease the S phase ratio in rats' GSMC[1].
Cell Assay
The cells are seeded in a 96-well plate after being trypsinized in a 2.5 g/L trypsin solution. Following a 24-hour growth period to a subconfluent state of about 800 g/L, each well is supplemented with 0.1 mL of a medium containing 2.5% calf serum and varying concentrations (0.001, 0.1, and 10 μM) of alarelin. The wells are then incubated for a full day in a CO2 incubator. At least twelve wells are used to test each concentration. In summary, each well receives 15 μL of MTT solution, which is then incubated for four hours. Once the medium and MTT are taken out, each well receives 150 μL of DMSO, which is added and shaken for 10 minutes to dissolve the crystal. An ELISA reader is used to measure the OD at 490 nm[1].
Animal Protocol
Rats: There are two groups of male Sprague-Dawley rats. Group I: A chambered stomach is used to measure the amount of gastric acid secreted. In short, the abdomen is cut, the stomach and duodemun are exposed and tied, respectively, and 1.5 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride (containing 2 μg/kg of Alarelin) is infused into each of the stomach's chambers. The pH is measured in the ABL-500 after 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes, respectively, and the gastric juice is extracted from the chambered stomach. Saline is infused in place of alarelin as the control. Group II: Following anesthesia, 2 mL of Alarelin (2 μg/kg) is injected into the vein of the tail. Saline is injected as the control rather than alarelin. After that, the duodenum and stomach are tied off and given an instant 1.5 mL saline infusion.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
