Product Description

Alda-1 is a potent and selective Aldehyde Dehydrogenase-2 Agonist. Alda-1 reverses alcohol-induced hepatic steatosis and cell death in mice. Alda-1 inhibits atherosclerosis and attenuates hepatic steatosis in apolipoprotein E-knockout mice. Alda-1 reduces cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in rat through clearance of reactive aldehydes. Pharmacological activation of ALDH2 by Alda-1 reversed alcoholic steatosis and apoptosis through accelerating aldehyde clearance. This study indicates that ALDH2 is a promising molecular target and Alda-1 has therapeutic potential for treating alcoholic liver disease.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vivo
Alda-1 therapy resulted in a considerable decrease in 4-HNE protein concentration in the plasma of apoE−/− animals. Alda-1 injection resulted in a small increase in the expression of genes associated to neurogenesis (Nog), mitochondrial biogenesis (CYTB, ND1), and apoptosis (Bax, Gsk3b) in Hp of apoE−/− mice. Alda-1 treatment resulted in the synthesis of 2 and 10 differently expressed proteins in FCx and Hp, respectively, of apoE−/− mice [1]. Alda-1 (1.5 mg/kg, bw, IP) injection significantly increased climbing time in prenatally stressed rats in the forced swim test, tending to decrease immobility time and increase swimming time. Furthermore, treatment of prenatally stressed rats with Alda-1 dramatically enhanced the number of entry into the open arms of the labyrinth and the duration spent in the maze, as determined by the elevated plus maze test [2]. After 24 hours of glucose administration, Alda-1 (8.5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection) and glucose dramatically reduced the number of 4-HNE and FJB-positive cells in the cerebral cortex of Alda-1-treated rats, which was significantly lower than that of DMSO-treated rats. [3]. Alda-1 (10 mg/kg per day) therapy avoids aldehyde excess, mitochondrial dysfunction and improves cardiac function in animals with post-MI cardiomyopathy [4].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ≥ 51 mg/mL (~157.33 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.71 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

Solubility in Formulation 2: 24 mg/mL (74.04 mM) in 0.5% CMC-Na/saline water (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 3.0849 mL 15.4245 mL 30.8490 mL
5 mM 0.6170 mL 3.0849 mL 6.1698 mL
10 mM 0.3085 mL 1.5424 mL 3.0849 mL

*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
