Product Description
L-NIL HCl is an inhibitor (blocker/antagonist) of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), with IC50 of 3.3 μM for miNOS.
L-NIL HCl is the dihydrochloride salt of N-iminoethyl-L-lysine, a relatively selective inhibitor of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). It reduces nitric oxide production in inflammatory cells and tissues and is used as a research tool for studying iNOS-dependent inflammation, arthritis, and neuroinflammation.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase). L-NIL inhibits iNOS catalytic activity, reducing nitric oxide production from L-arginine. It shows approximately 28-fold selectivity for iNOS (IC50 3.3 µM) over the constitutive neuronal NOS (IC50 92 µM) and has weaker activity against endothelial NOS.
ln Vitro
L-NIL inhibited rat brain constitutive NOS (rcNOS) and mouse inducible NOS in a concentration-dependent manner, with the inhibition of mouse inducible NOS being substantially stronger. L-NIL was 28 times more selective for mouse inducible NOS, as seen by its IC50 values of 3.3 and 92 pM for rcNOS and mouse inducible NOS, respectively. Furthermore, L-NIL has a potency against induced NOS in mice that is about six times greater than that of L-NMA or L-NNA [3].
L-NIL inhibits mouse iNOS with an IC50 of 3.3 µM and rat brain constitutive NOS with an IC50 of 92 µM, showing approximately 28-fold selectivity for iNOS. It inhibits human iNOS with an IC50 of 5.9 µM. It exhibits about 10-fold greater inhibitory potency than NG-monomethyl-L-arginine.
ln Vivo
In mice with renal IR, L-NIL (10 and 30 mg/kg, IP) inhibits autophagy, oxidative stress, and inflammation [1].
In vivo, L-NIL reduces iNOS activity and inflammatory tissue damage in adjuvant-induced arthritis, experimental osteoarthritis, and melanoma models. Oral administration in drinking water (0.15%) decreases serum nitrite levels after LPS challenge. It reduces joint swelling, radiographic changes, and chondrocyte apoptosis in arthritis models.
Enzyme Assay
iNOS inhibition is measured using recombinant iNOS and L-arginine in the presence of NADPH and cofactors. Nitrite accumulation is quantified by the Griess assay. Compound is pre-incubated with enzyme, and the reaction is initiated by L-arginine. IC50 values are derived from dose-response curves. Selectivity is assessed against eNOS and nNOS.
Cell Assay
Macrophages or iNOS-expressing cells are stimulated with LPS and cytokines in the presence or absence of serial dilutions of L-NIL. Nitrite accumulation in culture supernatants is measured by Griess assay. iNOS protein expression is assessed by immunoblotting, and cell viability is measured in parallel.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Adult male Balb/c (20-25 g) [1].
Doses: 10 and 30 mg/kg.
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection at the end of CLP and 6 hrs (hrs (hours)) after sepsis induction.
Experimental Results: The increase in plasma NGAL was negligible compared to sham-operated mice. Resulting in a significant decrease in TLR4 and IL1β protein levels and clusterin transcripts. NFAT5 mRNA levels were increased compared to mice treated with vehicle. Promoted reduction in AR protein expression compared to vehicle-treated animals.
Rodent models of inflammation, arthritis, or melanoma are used. L-NIL is administered in drinking water (0.15%) or by intraperitoneal injection at doses guided by pharmacokinetic studies. Plasma nitrite/nitrate levels, joint swelling, histopathology, and tumor growth are assessed. Tissue iNOS activity is measured ex vivo.

*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
