Product Description
Orphenadrine ((±)-Orphenadrine) is a skeletal muscle relaxant and NMDA antagonist, and also has anti-Parkinson's disease, antihistamine, antitremor, antispasmodic and analgesic effects. Orphenadrine can inhibit the binding of [3H]MK-801 to the phencyclidine (PCP) binding site of the NMDA receptor. Orphenadrine is also an anticholinergic agent and cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2B inducer. Orphenadrine may play a pro-tumor role, causing CAR nuclear translocation, leading to the generation of microsomal reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress. Orphenadrine also plays a neuroprotective role, protecting rat cerebellar granule cells (CGC) from 3-NPA-induced death, and has inhibitory potential for neurodegenerative diseases mediated by excessive activation of NMDA receptors.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
NMDA receptor[1]; CYP450 2B[2]; Cholinesterase (ChE)[3]
ln Vitro
Orphenadrine (30-300 μM) exhibits relatively fast concentration-dependent open channel blockade kinetics with a Koff of 0.013[1].
ln Vivo
In a study of the tumor-promoting effects of orphenadrine, male rats were pretreated with a single intraperitoneal injection of N-diethylnitrosamine (DEN) for 2 weeks. Orphenadrine (0, 750, 1500 ppm; po; 6 wk) accelerated hepatocyte proliferation and induced liver tumor-promoting activity[2]. Orphenadrine (30 mg/kg; po; 3 d) protected rats from the effects of 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NPA) (30 mg/kg; 3 d), which resulted in increased expression of neuronal damage markers [(3)H]-PK 11195 and HSP27 in astrocytes[3].
Cell Assay
Cell Viability Assay[1]
Cell Types: NMDA open-channel Tested
Tested Concentrations: 30, 100 and 300 μM

Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Liver tumor model in male rats pre-treated by N-diethylnitrosamine[2]
Doses: 0, 750, 1500 ppm
Route of Administration: PO; for 6 weeks
Experimental Results: Increased mRNA expression levels of Cyp2b1/2, Mrp2 and Cyclin D1. Increased microsomal reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and oxidative stress markers such as thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine.

Shipping Condition

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~100 mg/mL (~371.22 mM; with ultrasonication)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.28 mM)(saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 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 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution and add it to 400 μL PEG300, mix well; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above system, mix well; then continue to add 450 μL of normal saline to make up to 1 mL. Preparation of normal saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in ddH₂O and make up to 100 mL to obtain a clear and transparent normal saline solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.28 mM)(saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO 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 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution and add it to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD saline solution and mix well. 2 g SBE-β-CD (sulfobutyl ether β-cyclodextrin) powder is diluted to 10 mL of saline and completely dissolved until clear and transparent.

Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.28 mM)(saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil (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 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution and add it to 900 μL corn oil and mix well.

 (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
