Product Description

Benzbromarone (L2214; L 2214; MJ-10061; MJ10061; L-2214; L2214-Labaz; Narcaricin; Normurat), an approved anti-gout drug (uricosuric drug) for the last 30 years, is a potent CYP2C9 inhibitor with Ki value of 19.3 nM. It also acts as non-competitive inhibitor of XO/xanthine oxidase. Benzbromarone is structurally related to the antiarrhythmic amiodarone and is highly effective and well tolerated, and clinical trials as early as 1981 and as recently as April 2008 have suggested it is superior to both allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor but not uricosuric, and probenecid, another uricosuric drug.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Benzbromarone (20 μM) decreases mitochondrial membrane potential by 81% in isolated rat hepatocytes. Benzbromarone decreases state 3 oxidation and respiratory control ratios for L-glutamate with IC50 < 1 μM in isolated rat liver mitochondria. Benzbromarone (50 μM) uncouples oxidative phosphorylation and increases oxygen consumption by hepatocytes starting at 10 μM in isolated rat hepatocytes. Benzbromarone also inhibits the formation of acid-soluble β-oxidation products in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 of 2 μM. Benzbromarone (100 μM) inhibits the electron transport chain and are uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation in isolated rat liver mitochondria. Benzbromarone (1 μM) leads to concentration-dependent increasion of ROS production in HepG2 cells. Benzbromarone (100 μM) leads to a significant increase in mitochondrial size of isolated rat liver mitochondria. Benzbromarone is associated with leakage of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm of HepG2 cells. Benzbromarone (100 μM) results in the proportion of apoptotic cells of 11% in rat hepatocytes. Benzbromarone significantly reduces the oxypurinol uptake at a concentration as low as 10 nM and completely blocks it at 1 μM. Benzbromarone (1 μM) uptakes the typical substrate of OCTN1 (tetraethylammonium) and OCTN2 (carnitine) in the HEK293 cells expressed with human OCTN1 by 96.7% and 111% of control, respectively. Benzbromarone completely inhibits urate uptake at 50 μM in URAT1-expressing oocytes, with IC50 of less than 0.1 μM. Benzbromarone activates through sequential hydroxylation of the benzofuran ring to a catechol, which can then be further oxidized to a reactive quinone intermediate capable of adducting protein.

ln Vivo
The in vivo urate lowering effects of JNS4 were evaluated with Benzbromarone (BM) as positive control. Potassium oxonate and hypoxanthine were used for inducing hyperuricemia in KM mice, lesinurad was used as another positive drug. As shown in Fig. 7, the serum urate levels of model group (950.4 μM) were significantly increased (P

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 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
