Product Description

Carbenoxolone sodium (Pyrogastrone; Biogastrone; Bioral; Duogastrone; Sanodin), an analogue of glycyrrhizin, is the active metabolite of Glycyrrhizic acid and an inhibitor of human 11β-HSD and bacterial 3α, 20β-HSD. It is an uncoupling agent for gap junctions and a potent inhibitor of Vaccinia virus replication. Carbenoxolone disodium has the potential to be used for peptic, esophageal and oral ulceration and inflammation.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Carbenoxolone disodium (6-150 μM; 1 hour pretreatment) is hazardous to VACV-A5L-EGFP infection for 48 hours and inhibits the vaccinia virus (VACV) from replicating itself in gap junctions in HaCaT cells[2]. In hacat cells, carbenoxolone (30 μM; 1 h pre-treatment) increases late protein A27 expression but does not upregulate PP2A expression [2].
ln Vivo
When compared to saline, carbenoxolone (i.p. ; 100, 200, and 300 mg/kg; 30, 60, and 60 minutes prior to diazepam) exhibits muscle relaxant activity and is superior to the diazepam test in terms of its ability to produce this effect [3]. In mice used in the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) seizure model, carbenoxolone (ip; 100, 200, and 300 mg/kg; 30, 60, and 60 minutes before to pentylenetetrazole) dramatically lengthens sleep duration and decreases latency in a dose-dependent way. ..83.3 mg/kg is the ED50 value (%95 CL:556.29)[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

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
