Product Description

Ouabain (Ouabain Octahydrate; Acocantherine; G-Strophanthin; Strodival; NSC-25485; NSC25485) is a novel, potent and selective Na+/K+, -ATPase inhibitor with the potential to treat heart failure due to myocardial infarction. It binds to α2 /α3 subunit with Ki of 41 nM/15 nM. Ouabain (100 nM) inhibits ATPase activities with 25%. Ouabain (0.1 μM-1.0 μM) inhibits the Na+ pump and increases stored Ca2+ in cultured rat astrocytes. High Ouabain affinity isoforms are confined to a reticular distribution within the PM that paralleled underlying endoplasmic or sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Ouabain (100 μM) stimulates NLRP3 inflammasome activation and IL-1β release in macrophages. Ouabain-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation is mediated through K+ efflux[1]. Ouabain (3 nM) affects the expression of EMT markers in NHK and ADPKD cells, and modifies cell-cell adhesion qualities in ADPKD. Moreover, ouabain promotes migration of ADPKD cells, selectively modulates tight junctions, and modulates adherens junctions in ADPKD cells in a selective manner. Ouabain also promotes TGFβ-Smad3 signaling, changes TER in ADPKD cells[2]. Ouabain (25, 50 or 100 nM) administration dramatically lowers cell proliferation and viability in Raji cells in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 of 76.48±4.03 nM. Ouabain increases the frequency of apoptotic cells, activates autophagy, and upregulates Beclin -1 in Raji cells[4].
ln Vivo
When mice are primed with LPS, ouabain (3 mg/kg) dramatically reduces heart contractile force with an increased LVESD. A lack of IL-1β reduces the damage and malfunction of the heart caused by ouabain. Ouabain-induced cardiac inflammation is partly attributed to the secretion of IL-1β by infiltrating macrophages. The effects of ouabain-induced cardiac dysfunction and macrophage infiltration are mitigated by NLRP3 and Casp1 deficiency[1]. Wistar rat thymocytes' ABCB1 activity is modulated by ouabain (30 µg/kg, ip), and Swiss mice's thymocytes respond similarly to 300 µg/kg of the drug. Rats treated with ouabain for 14 days show a substantial increase in MAP[3].

*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
