Product Description

MK571, also known as L660711, is a potent and selective competitive inhibitor of [3H]leukotriene D4 binding in guinea pig (Ki value, 0.22 nM) and human (Ki value, 2.1 nM) lung membranes but is essentially inactive versus [3H]leukotriene C4 binding (IC50 value in guinea pig lung, 23 microM).

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
MK571 (15 μM, 1 hour) drastically reduces Fluo-3 efflux and both constitutive and Ag-stimulated S1P in RBL-2H3 cells and mast cells [3].
ln Vivo
Methysergide (3 μg/kg)-treated patients experience a dose-dependent inhibition of the duration of dyspnea induced at light-sensitizing concentrations when administered MK-571 (0-0.5 mg/kg once, lateral) [1]. MK-571 (0-1 mg/kg, wall, once) causes conscious squirrel monkeys to exhibit limited 4- and Ascaris-induced fold contractions [1]. MK-571 (0-25 mg/kg, wall, daily, for more than 2 weeks) counteracts the effects of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (PH) and shields mice's chests from these effects [2].
Cell Assay
Cell Viability Assay[3]
Cell Types: RBL- 2H3 cells, human LAD2 mast cells
Tested Concentrations: 15 μM
Incubation Duration: 1 h
Experimental Results: RBL-2H3 cells transfected with vector and SphK1 inhibited S1P secretion, but did not affect [3H]Sph uptake and intracellular conversion to S1P. Inhibits Fluo-3 efflux, inhibits S1P export from LAD2 cells, and prevents Ag-stimulated S1P release.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: hyperresponsive rats (200-400 g of each male and female, pre-treatment with intravenous (iv) (iv)injection of 3 μg/kg methysergide, 5 minutes before antigen extraction) [1]
Doses: 0.5, 0.15 and 0.05 mg/kg
Route of Administration: po (po (oral gavage)) once, 1 or 4 hrs (hrs (hours)) before challenge
Experimental Results: Dose-dependent suppression of antigen duration-induced dyspnea with ED50 values of 0.13 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.03-0.62) and 0.11 (95% CI, 0.009-1.47) mg/kg. MK-571 was more active when administered orally as a 1% Methocel suspension (4 hrs (hrs (hours)) pretreatment), with an ED50 of 0.068 (95% CI, 0.83-0.14) mg/kg.

Animal/Disease Models: Csnscisus squirrel msnkeys[1]
Doses: 0.1, 0.5 and 1 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Oral once 2 hrs (hrs (hours)) before Ascaris antigen challenge
Experimental Results: 0.5 mg/kg produced significant inhibition of bronchoconstriction, produced significant inhibition 1 mg/kg inhibits the increase of RL and the decrease of Cdyn.

Animal/Disease Models: FVB (Friend virus type B) mice (Mrp4–/– and WT, 6 weeks old, exposed to chr

Note: Please be aware that the above formulations are for reference only. InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 1.8130 mL 9.0652 mL 18.1304 mL
5 mM 0.3626 mL 1.8130 mL 3.6261 mL
10 mM 0.1813 mL 0.9065 mL 1.8130 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.

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
