Product Description

Losartan carboxylic acid (EXP-3174; EXP 3174; EXP3174) is a cytochrome P450-mediated carboxylic acid metabolite, and is an active metabolite of Losartan. Losartan (Cozaar among others) is a recognized antihypertensive medication that blocks the angiotensin II receptor.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
binding of [125I]-angiotensin II to VSMC ( IC50 = 1.1 nM )
ln Vitro
Losartan Carboxylic Acid (E-3174) inhibits the specific binding of [125I]-angiotensin II to VSMC with an IC50 of 1.1 nM. In VSMC, the angiotensin II-induced production of inositolphosphates is eliminated by losartan carboxylic acid. With an IC50 of 5 nM, losartan carboxylic acid suppresses the increase in intracellular cytosolic Ca2+ concentration that is brought about by angiotensin II. Losartan Carboxylic Acid is superior to losartan in its ability to inhibit the rise in Egr-1 mRNA brought on by angiotensin II. With an IC50 of 3 nM, losartan carboxylic acid inhibits the angiotensin II-induced cell protein synthesis[1].
ln Vivo
Losartan Carboxylic Acid (E-3174) (0.1 mg/kg; i.v. followed by 0.02 mg/kg/h for 5.5 h) produces a pressor response inhibition (87±4%) comparable to that of angiotensin I[3]. Anesthetized dogs with a recent anterior myocardial infarction (8.1±0.4 days) are given intravenous lossartan carboxylic acid injection. One hour after treatment begins, the left circumflex coronary artery is electrolytically injured to cause posterolateral ischemia and thrombotic occlusion[4].
Cell Assay
For 48 hours, cells were treated with either 15% FBS or Ang II in the presence or absence of the recommended dosage of losartan. Using the MTT assay, cell proliferation was assessed.
Animal Protocol
Mongrel dogs of either sex, weighing 15-25 kg
0.1 mg/kg (followed by 0.02 mg/kg/h)
i.v. for 5.5 hours

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: ~87 mg/mL (~199.1 mM)
Ethanol: ~87 mg/mL
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.76 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.76 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*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
