Product Description

Diltiazem HCl (Tiazac, RG-83606 HCl) is a benzothiazepine derivative and a calcium-channel blocker (CCB) with vasodilating activity. It is an approved medication that has been used to treat hypertension, angina, and arrhythmia. Diltiazem is chemically classified as a nondihydropyridines (non-DHP) CCB. It acts by relaxing the smooth muscles in the walls of arteries, which opens (dilates) the arteries, allows blood to flow more easily, and lowers blood pressure.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
The α1 subunit of L-type Ca2+ channels interacts with transmembrane segments IIIS6 and IVS6 in the benzothiazepine Ca2+ antagonist diltiazem hydrochloride[1]. In addition to stimulating Ca2+ influx that is triggered by alpha adrenoceptor activation and high-K+ depolarization, diltiazem also inhibits contractions in a dose-dependent manner. When it comes to preventing contractions brought on by high K+ and low norepinephrine (NE) concentrations, diltiazem is about equally effective[2]. Additionally, the Na-dependent Ca-efflux from cardiac mitochondria is inhibited by diltiazem. Diltiazem's cis- and trans-optical (+)-optical isomers both block Na-Ca exchange activity with a similar degree of potency (IC50 of 10–20 μM)[3].
ln Vivo
The noncompetitive suppression of Ca2+-induced contractions in the depolarized rabbit aorta is achieved by diltiazem. Moreover, the effects on smooth muscle caused by adding diltiazem and removing [Ca2+]ex are not parallel[2]. Diltiazem enhances heart microcirculation and function in a rat hyperthyroidism experimental paradigm. Losartan diltiazem therapy significantly lowers the proportion of fibrosis regions in the left ventricle (4.7±0.7%; P < 0.001) in hyperthyroid rats [4]. Diltiazem is administered intravenously (0.03–-1 mg/kg) to conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), and it dose-dependently lowers blood pressure and raises heart rate. SHR blood pressure is also lowered by oral diltiazem treatment (100 mg/kg)[5].

*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
