Product Description

Palonosetron (formerly RS-25259, RS-25259 197; trade name: Aloxi and Akynzeo) is a 5-HT3 antagonist approved for use in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. As of April 2018, the combination of fosnetupitant and palonosetron was approved by FDA to prevent acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy. Palonosetron is a highly potent, selective, second-generation 5-HT3 receptor antagonist with a 5-HT3 receptor binding affinity that is ∼100-fold higher than other 5-HT3 receptor antagonists (pKi 10.5 compared with 8.91 for granisetron, 8.81 for tropisetron, 8.39 for ondansetron, 7.6 for dolasetron).

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
5-HT3 Receptor ( Ki = 0.17 nM )
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Palonosetron is an antagonist that binds to the 5-HT3 receptor very well, and it has little to no affinity for other receptors[1].

ln Vivo
Palonosetron surpasses the first-generation 5-HT3 receptor antagonists in both half-life and binding affinity. When palonosetron is given intravenously to both healthy individuals and cancer patients, the body gradually eliminates the drug after an initial drop in plasma concentration. Between 0.3 and 90 μg/kg, the mean maximum plasma concentration and the area under the concentration-time curves in both healthy individuals and cancer patients are typically dose-proportional. With a volume of distribution of 8.3 ± 2.5 L/kg, palonosetron is 62% bound to plasma proteins. Through metabolic processes and renal excretion, it is removed from the body. 40 hours is roughly the mean terminal elimination half-life[1].
Enzyme Assay
Palonosetron is a second-generation, highly selective, potent antagonist of the 5-HT3 receptor with a binding affinity for the receptor that is approximately 100 times higher than that of other antagonists of the 5-HT3 receptor (pKi 10.5 compared with 8.91 for granisetron, 8.81 for tropisetron, 8.39 for ondansetron, and 7.6 for dolasetron).
Cell Assay
Palonosetron is a 5-HT3 antagonist used to treat and prevent nausea and vomiting brought on by chemotherapy (CINV). IC50 Value: Among the 5-HT3 antagonists, 5-HT3 Receptor Palonosetron is the most successful in managing delayed CINV nausea and vomiting that manifests over a 24-hour period following the initial dosage of a chemotherapy regimen.

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.)

*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
