Product Description

Deferoxamine is an novel iron chelator that is able to bind to free iron in a stable complex, it is also a bacterial siderophore produced by the Actinobacteria Streptomyces pilosus. It has medical applications as a chelating agent used to remove excess iron from the body. The mesylate salt of DFO-B is commercially available. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, the most important medications needed in a basic health system. Deferoxamine acts by binding free iron in the bloodstream and enhancing its elimination in the urine.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In MEF cells, deferoxamine mesylate (1 mM; 16 hours or 4 weeks) lowers ROS and enhances HIF-1α function in hypoxic and hypertensive environments [1]. Deferoxamine mesylate (5, 10, 25, 50, 100 μM; 7 or 9 days) suppresses the expression of tumor-associated MSCs and bone marrow MSCs proliferate and produce an increase in p-Akt/total Akt/PKB levels. Deferoxamine mesylate (100 μM; 24 hours) enhances InsR expression and activity. In depleted stem cells, deferoxamine mesylate (5, 10, 25, 50, 100 μM; 7 days) causes inflammation [3]. Cell Expression of Damage Proteins in Mesenchymal Stem Cells[3] Deferoxamine mesylate (10 μM; 3 days) influences deferoxamine mesylate (100 μM; 24 h) in SH-SY5Y cells, producing autophagy changes mediated by HIF-1α levels.
ln Vivo
In elderly or diabetic people, deferoxamine mesylate (6.57 μg/mouse; intravenous drip; once daily for 21 days) accelerates wound healing and increases new blood vessels [1]. Deferoxamine mesylate (200 mg/kg; intraperitoneal; once day for two weeks) elevates trophic, glucose InsR expression, and in vivo signaling prevalence in addition to stabilizing HIF-1α [2].

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
