Product Description

Cilostazol (formerly OPC-13013; Pletal; Cilostazolum; Pletaal; OPC13013; OPC 13013), a potent vasodilator that acts by relaxing the muscles, is a selective cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase type 3 (PDE3) inhibitor with beneficial effects on learning impairment. It inhibits PDE3 with an IC50 of 0.2 μM and inhibitor of adenosine uptake.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Cilostazol is a strong inhibitor of platelet aggregation brought on by different agonists and specifically inhibits cGMP-inhibited phosphodiesterase (PDE 3) [2]. With an IC50 of 15 μM for stress-induced human platelet aggregation and 12.5 μM for ADP-induced platelet aggregation, clostazol inhibits both types of human platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent manner [2]. Cilostazol inhibits HSC activation directly and effectively, but not Kupffer cell activation [3].
ln Vivo
In vivo liver fibrosis caused by CCl4 is lessened by clostazol (clinical dosage; oral administration for 2 weeks); this effect may be attributed to direct inhibition of HSC activation [3]. Intraperitoneal injection of cilostazol (10 mg/kg given over 7 days) reduces neurological deficits, brain atrophy, and infarct size. It also prevents astrocyte proliferation and glial scarring during ischemia. After 7 and 28 days, angiogenesis in the ischemic border zone accelerates [4].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Male C57BL/6J mice[3]
Doses: 0.1% w/w, 0.3% w/w
Route of Administration: Oral administration; fed a normal diet for 2 weeks
Experimental Results: demonstrated a lesser fibrotic area than control groups.

Animal/Disease Models: Male ICR mice[4]
Doses: 10 mg/kg
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip)injection; 7 days after ischemia
Experimental Results: Had an effectve effects for the late injury.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 74 mg/mL (200.3 mM)
Water:<1 mg/mL
Ethanol: 6 mg/mL warmed (16.2 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2 mg/mL (5.41 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2 mg/mL (5.41 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 20.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.7067 mL 13.5333 mL 27.0665 mL
5 mM 0.5413 mL 2.7067 mL 5.4133 mL
10 mM 0.2707 mL 1.3533 mL 2.7067 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
