Product Description

Dipyridamole (also known as NSC515776; RA8; Persantine) is a pyrimido-pyrimidine based phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor with antiplatelet properties. It blocks the uptake and metabolism of adenosine by erythrocytes and vascular endothelial cells. Dipyridamole is used in combination with 'blood thinners' such as warfarin to prevent the formation of blood clots after heart valve replacement surgery.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In OCI-AML-3 cells, dipyridamole (5 μM; 15 min) increased intracellular cAMP levels 2.5-fold [2]. Primary AML cells undergo apoptosis when statins and dipyridamole (5 μM; 48 hours) are combined [2]. Dipyridamole (5 μM; 48 hours) inhibits statin-induced SREBP2 activation in a cAMP/PKA-independent manner [2].
ln Vivo
Dipyridamole (10 mg/kg); taken orally, once daily for eighteen days) inhibits the growth of tumors, enhances blood flow while simultaneously altering the tumor's tissue, and increases platelet infiltration [3].

*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

Biological Data
  • Dipyridamole inhibits the sterol‐regulated feedback loop of the MVA pathway. Schematic representation of the MVA pathway. Statins inhibit the rate‐limiting enzyme of the pathway, HMGCR, which catalyzes the conversion of HMG‐CoA to MVA. MVA is subsequently used to synthesize various metabolites that are important for cell growth and survival, including GGPP and cholesterol. Statin‐mediated cholesterol depletion induces the cleavage and activation of SREBP2, which in turn induces the transcription of genes involved in MVA metabolism to restore homeostasis. We previously identified that the drug dipyridamole can inhibit statin‐induced SREBP2 activation; however, the mechanism by which dipyridamole inhibits SREBP2 cleavage remains poorly understood.
  • Dipyridamole mitigated LLC cell proliferation.
  • Dipyridamole and GW4869 mitigated tumor growth. LLC cells or saline vehicle were implanted into C57BL/6 mice and allowed to grow for 3 weeks. Three days after implantation, dipyridamole (10 mg/kg) and GW4869 (2.5 mg/kg) were administrated daily up until the end of the experiment. The tumor volume (A), resected tumor tissues (B), and tumor mass (C) are shown. The total white blood cells (WBC) (D), sP-selectin (E), TGF-β1 (F), and platelets (G) in blood samples were determined. * p < 0.05 vs. saline or sham untreated group and # p < 0.05 vs. LLC untreated group, n = 8.
