Product Description

1-Aminobenzotriazole (also known as ABT; 3-Aminobenzotriazole) has been used widely as a nonselective in vitro and in vivo inhibitor of cytochrome P450 enzymes. To date, however, it has not been evaluated as an inhibitor of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT), sulfotransferase (SULT), and N-acetyltransferase (NAT). ABT was shown not to inhibit UGT and SULT activity (acetaminophen and 7-hydroxycoumarin as substrates) in rat liver microsomes and rat liver 9000 g supernatant fraction (RLS9), respectively. However, it did inhibit the RLS9-catalyzed N-acetylation of procainamide (IC(50) ∼ 30 μM), and no preincubation time dependence was evident. In agreement, oral ABT (100 mg/kg, 2 h predose) decreased the clearance of intravenous procainamide (45%) in rats, accompanied by a decreased N-acetylprocainamide-to-procainamide ratio in urine (0.74 versus 0.21) and plasma (area under the curve ratio 0.59 versus 0.11). Additional studies with human forms of NAT (hNAT1 and hNAT2) revealed that ABT is a more potent inhibitor of hNAT2 compared with hNAT1 (IC(50) 158 μM versus > 1 mM). Consistent with the IC(50) estimate, formal inhibition studies revealed that inhibition of hNAT2 was competitive with an inhibition constant of 67 μM. In accordance with the competitive inhibition, ABT was shown to undergo N-acetylation in the presence of both human NAT forms, with hNAT1 exhibiting less activity under the same assay conditions (∼40% of hNAT2). In summary, the results described herein indicate that ABT is a substrate and inhibitor of NAT. Such an interaction should be considered when using ABT as a nonselective inhibitor of P450, especially when NAT-dependent metabolism is also involved.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
1-Aminobenzotriazole (ABT) alone considerably raised the CYP2B6 expression levels in two distinct hepatocytes (by 7.3 and 10.8 fold, respectively). The induction of CYP2B6 expression by CITCO or rifampicin was improved 12.6-fold and 4.0-fold for CITCO and 3.9-fold and 2.5-fold for rifampicin following co-treatment with 1-aminobenzotriazole. 1-Aminobenzotriazole has a more stimulating impact on CITCO than rifampicin does. 1. In two distinct hepatocytes, aminobenzotriazole alone elevated the expression levels of CYP3A4 by 2.0 and 3.8 times, respectively. The effect of CITCO on CYP3A4 expression levels was increased by 3.8 and 6.0 times after co-treatment with 1-aminobenzotriazole, respectively, in comparison to cells treated with CITCO alone [1]. When compared to a clear 1-aminobenzotriazole control, 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) (1 mM) demonstrated a significant (~95%) improvement in the production of N-CPU-based procainamide[2].
ln Vivo
Wall 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) (100 mg/kg, 2 hours before laboratory) decreases the rate of intravenous procainamide clearance (45%), but N-aminobenzotriazole waste Reduced area under the curve ratio of 0.59 compared to 0.11 and decreased ratio of inamide to procainamide (0.74 vs. 0.21). The recovery of N-benzoprocainamide in stealing dropped from 13.3% to 6.5%, whereas the residual recovery of procainamide increased from 18% to 30% when 1-aminobenzotriazole was used [2]. Gastric emptying was markedly delayed by a pretreatment of 100 mg/kg oral 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT), given two hours prior to a semi-solid caloric test meal. 1-Aminobenzotriazole also doubles the amount of space in the stomach [3].

*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
