Mildronate (Quaterin; Meldonium; Kvaterin; Mildronate), a structural analogue of gammabutyrobetaine and performance-enhancing drug developed by Latvia Institute of Organic Synthesis, is a potent inhibitor of biosynthesis of L-carnitine by gamma-butyrobetaine (GBB) hydroxylase, also a competitive inhibitor of renal carnitine reabsorption.
ln Vitro |
By targeting PFKP to regulate glycolysis and consequently promote Nrf2's translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, medonium (20–40 μM; 24 hours) reduces lung injury and mitigates oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage under hypoxic settings [3].

ln Vivo |
In mice, meldonium (50, 100, or 200 mg/kg; once daily for three days) moderately lessens lung damage brought on by hypoxia [3].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 100 mg/mL (684.04 mM) in PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with sonication.
 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
Preparing Stock Solutions | 1 mg | 5 mg | 10 mg | |
1 mM | 6.7939 mL | 33.9697 mL | 67.9394 mL | |
5 mM | 1.3588 mL | 6.7939 mL | 13.5879 mL | |
10 mM | 0.6794 mL | 3.3970 mL | 6.7939 mL |
*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.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
