Product Description

Indacaterol (formerly known as QAB-149) is an anti-COPD drug acting as an ultra-long-acting β-adrenoceptor agonist developed by Novartis with pKi of 7.36. In order to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the FDA approved indacaterol in 2009. With the use of a dry powder inhaler, it is administered as an aerosol. Chinese hamster ovary cells transfected with human β2 adrenoceptors stably exhibit a pEC50 of 8.06, indicating that indacaterol inhibits the production of cAMP.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
β1-adrenoceptor ( pKi = 7.36 ); β2-adrenoceptor ( pKi = 5.48 )
ln Vitro
Indacaterol (1, 2.5, 5, 10 μM; 12 h) inhibits TNF-α-induced MMP-9 and expression activity in human fibrosarcoma HT1080 cells [1]. Indacaterol (10 μM; 6 h) reduces the expression activity of MMP-9 [1]. Indacaterol (1, 2.5, 5, 10 μM; 2.5 h) inhibits TNF-α-activated IKK/NF-кB expression and activity in HT1080 cells and inhibits TNF-α-activated human fibrosarcoma cells most effectively and migrates [ 1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: HT1080 cells (constitutivelyexpress MMP-9) Concentration: 1, 2.5, 5, 10 µM Incubation Time: 12 h (pretreat) Results: Significantly inhibited MMP-9 mRNA. Expression range is 2.5 to 10 µM. Cell migration assay[1] Cell line: HT1080 cells (constitutively expressing MMP-9) Concentration: 10 µM Incubation time: 6 hours (2 hours pretreatment followed by 4 hours incubation with TNF-α) Results: Significant reduction of fibrosarcoma and inhibited HT1080 cell migration in the wound healing area. Western Blot Analysis[1] Cell line: HT1080 Cell concentration: 1, 2.5, 5, 10 µM Incubation time: 2.5 hours (pretreatment for 2 hours, then incubated with TNF-α for 0.5 hours) Results: Inhibition of TNF-α induction of IκBα and Phosphorylation of IKKα/β, the upstream activator of NF-κB. Inhibits TNF-α-induced NF-κB nuclear translocation at 5 and 10 µM. Inhibits TNF-α-induced MMP-9 enzyme activity and reduces MMP-9 protein levels in a dose-dependent manner in the range of 2.5 to 10 µM.
ln Vivo
Indacaterol (0.3 mg/kg; MI; once daily for 15 weeks) exhibits normalizing and MI-restoring activity in a myocardial infarction (MI) cardiovascular model of heart failure (HF) [2]. Male Wistar rats (225-250 g; heart failure (HF) myocardial infarction (MI) rat model) [2]. Dosage: 0.3 mg/kg Administration: In drinking water of animals; once daily for 15 weeks Results: Mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate were significantly reduced. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure LVID increase in heart failure and reverse the decrease in ejection fraction (%) values. Significantly reduced infarct size and catecholamine values to basal levels. β1 mRNA expression and cardiac cAMP levels were significantly increased in association with HF.

*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

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
