Product Description

Clinofibrate (Lipoclin; S-8527; S 8527) is a potent anti-hyperlipidemic agent which acts as an HMG-CoA (hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A) reductase inhibitor with potential anti-hyperlipidemic effects. It inhibits HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) with an IC50 of 0.47 mM.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Clinofibrate is an antihyperlipidemic agent with IC50 with 40 μM on the activities of human liver 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases. Clinofibrate stimulates the activity of AKR 1C4 by 2.0-fold. The concentration of Clinofibrate at which maximum stimulation is achieved is 50 μM.

ln Vivo
Administration of clinofibrate at doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg/day, po, considerably reduces the rise in serum and VLDL-LDL-lipids as well as plasma fibrinogen levels[1]. The elevated plasma cholesterol level of atherosclerotic rats (823±256 mg/dl), which is almost ten times that of control rats (85±11 mg/dl), is dramatically reduced by clinofibrate. The very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) fraction experiences the greatest reduction in cholesterol levels when treated with clinofibrate[2]. After a two-day fast, rats are given a diet that is either fat-free or contains 5% fat. Serum and hepatic triglyceride levels are reduced when clinofibrate is administered at a dose of 30 mg/kg[3]. For seven days, normal rats given oral S-8527 reduce their serum cholesterol and triglycerides by approximately 20% at 3 mg/kg and 27% at 1 mg/kg, respectively. At 3 mg/kg, S-8527 reduces the level of liver triglycerides by approximately 20%[4].
Animal Protocol
S-8527 and clofibrate are suspended in an appropriate amount of 5 gum arabic solution so that the daily dose would be 0.5 mL per 100 g of body weight. The drugs are given to the rats via stomach tube every a.m. for 7 days. Control groups are on an equal volume of vehicle. During the experimental period, the animals are fed on a commercial chow pellet ad libitum. About 24 hr after the last dose, the rats are anesthetized with ether and blood samples are obtained from the inferior venacava. After sacrifice, the livers are removed, washed with physiological saline, blotted on filter paper and weighed
Rats: Male Wistar rats weighing 100-160 g are used.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 94 mg/mL (200.6 mM)
Water:<1 mg/mL
Ethanol: 94 mg/mL (200.6 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.5 mg/mL (5.34 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% 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 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.

Solubility in Formulation 2: 2.5 mg/mL (5.34 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with ultrasonication.
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 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.

*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.

  • 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)
