Product Description

Ciprofibrate (BRN-1984981; CCRIS 173; CCRIS173; Win-35833; BRN 1984981; BRN1984981;CCRIS-173) is a potent and selective agonist of PPAR/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor agonist with antilipidemic activity. It was developed and approved in 1985 as a lipid-lowering agent. Ciprofibrate acts by activating PPARα with an EC50 value of 20 µM and only marginally affects PPARγ (EC50 = >300 µM). It has been shown to lower adipose tissue weight and reduce plasma insulin concentrations in obese rats and has been used clinically in the treatment of dyslipidemia.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In rat Fao cells, ciprofibrate (500 μM; 4 hours) raises PPARa phosphorylation levels [1]. Ciprofibrate (10-100μM; 24 hours) promotes PPARR activation in rat liver H4IIEC3 cells transfected with the PPRE-AB LUC reporter plasmid, as demonstrated by the LucLite test [2]. HepG2 cells are not cytotoxic when exposed to ciprofibrate (10–100 μM) for a 24-hour period, and their viability is 99.7% [3]. In HepG2 cells, ciprofibrate (100 μM; 24 hours) likewise removed lipid deposition brought on by the FFA mixture and decreased the TG level that the FFA mixture had raised [3]. In HepG2 cells, ciprofibrate (100 μM; 24 h) nearly totally removed the FFA mixture-induced overproduction of inflammatory cytokines, such as MCP-1, TNF-α, and IL-6 [3].
ln Vivo
Mice fed the MCD diet showed no discernible change in body weight or absolute liver weight when given ciprofibrate (oral; 10 mg/kg/day; 3 days). Mice on MCD diet benefit from ciprofibrate because it decreases hepatic necroinflammation and improves hepatic steatosis. In addition, it decreased the levels of hepatic cytokine protein and mRNA (MCP-1, TNFα, and IL-6) in comparison to mice given a diet lacking in choline [3].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: C57BL/6 mice (sixweeks old male) [3]
Doses: 10 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Oral; 10 mg/kg/day; 3 days
Experimental Results: MCD diet-induced liver steatosis and steatosis in mice Liver necrosis and inflammation are diminished.

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 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.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

*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
