Product Description

Muramyl Dipeptide (MDP) is a novel and potent NOD2 agonist. It is a synthetic peptidoglycan immunoadjuvant that also causes arthritis and stimulates cellular and humorally bioavailable immunity. It has been demonstrated that NOD2 can recognize MDP, but not TLR2, TLR2/1, or TLR2/6 associations [1, 2]. There is no reaction to the D-D or L-L analogs in this recognition, which is highly stereospecific for the L-D isomer.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
p38 MAPK; NLRP1
ln Vitro
MDP directly augments osteoblast differentiation and bone-forming gene expression by Runx2 activation. MDP has no direct effect, but it indirectly inhibits osteoclast differentiation by lowering the RANKL/OPG ratio. The MDP receptor, Nod2, is expressed more frequently when MDP is present, and Nod2-deficient individuals do not experience MDP-induced bone formation or osteoblast activation. [1]
ln Vivo
Muramyl dipeptide (MDP)-treated mice show increased bone and mineral density due to enhanced bone formation. Surprisingly, pre- or post-treatment with MDP reduces bone loss in mouse models of RANKL-induced osteoporosis.[1]
Enzyme Assay
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay[1]
The levels of OPG and RANKL in culture supernatant and bone marrow extracellular fluid were measured using Quantikine enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Real-time reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction[1]
The mRNA expression of ALP, BSP, Runx2, Nod2, and GAPDH in osteoblasts was determined by using real-time reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction (real-time RT-PCR) as described.28 The sequences of each primer are as follows: ALP: forward 5′-CCAACTCTTTTGTGCCAGAGA-3′ and reverse 5′-GGCTACATTGGTGTTGAGCTTTT-3′; BSP, forward 5′-GAATGCTGTGTCCTCTGAAG-3′ and reverse 5′-AATCCTCGCTCTCTGCATGG-3′; Runx2: forward 5′-AACGATCTGAGATTTGTGGGC-3′ and reverse 5′-CCTGCGTGGGATTTCTTGGTT-3′; Nod2: forward 5′-CCTGGTACGTGCCCAAAGTAG-3′ and reverse 5′-GCCAAGTAGAAAGCGGCAAA-3′; and GAPDH: forward 5′-AGGTCGGTGTGAACCGGATTTG-3′ and reverse 5′-TGTAGACCATGTAGTTGAGGTCA-3′.
Cell Assay
In 48-well plates with 2×104 cells/400 l per well, MC3T3-E1 cells, BMSCs, or primary osteoblast precursors from mouse calvaria are plated before being incubated with osteoblast induction medium in the absence or presence of MDP. Every two days, half of the medium is replaced with brand-new osteoblast induction medium. At days 6 and 12, the cells are stained with alizarin red S to detect bone mineralization and with ALP to detect osteoblast differentiation.

*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
