Minoxidil (U-10858; Loniten; Rogaine)is anantihypertensive agentand vasodilatorthat has also found usefulness in treatment of hair loss andalopecia areatawhenapplied topically.As an antihypertensive vasodilator medication, it targets the potassium channel and induces generalized hypertrichosis when administered systemically.
| ln Vitro |
Using minoxidil (1-00 μM; 24 h; RAMEC cells) demonstrated extremely minimal cytotoxicity over the whole concentration range (from 1 μM to 100 μM) that was investigated [1].

| ln Vivo |
Rats treated with minoxidil (0.01 mmol/kg body weight; intraperitoneal injection; 3.5 hours duration; Fisher 344 rats) showed 49% inhibitory efficacy in preventing carrageenan-induced paw edema [1].

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Fisher 344 rat (150-200 g) edema [1]
Doses: 0.01 mmol/kg body weight Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection; intraperitoneal (ip) injection. 3.5 hrs (hrs (hours)) Experimental Results: Inhibits carrageenan-induced edema. |

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 0.71 mg/mL (3.39 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% EtOH + 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 7.1 mg/mL clear EtOH stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL of 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: ≥ 0.71 mg/mL (3.39 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% EtOH + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 7.1 mg/mL clear EtOH stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
