Product Description
2-Guanidinobezimidazole is an NLRP3 agonist with a KD value of 1.29 μM and also a selective state-dependent HVCN1 blocker. 2-Guanidinobezimidazole directly binds to the LRR domain of NLRP3, enhancing the interaction between NLRP3-ASC and NLRP3-NEK7 and driving the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. 2-Guanidinobezimidazole may be used in research on LLC lung cancer, B16F10 melanoma, and ischemic stroke.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
2-Guidinobenzimidazole rapidly inhibits proton transport in wild-type human Hv1 channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes by opening-channel blockade, exhibiting rapid binding and dissociation kinetics and not interacting with closed channels [2]. 2-Guidinobenzimidazole interacts with mutant human Hv1 channels (D112E, F150A) expressed in Xenopus oocytes via binding sites containing D112 and F150 residues, mutations at these sites altering the kinetics of rapid opening-channel blockade [2].
ln Vivo
2-Guidinobenzimidazole (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; every other day) can activate tumor-associated inflammasomes, increase the number of tumor-infiltrating cytotoxic T cells, and significantly inhibit the growth of LLC tumors in C57BL/6J mice[1]. 2-Guidinobenzimidazole (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; every other day) can overcome anti-PD-1 resistance and exert a synergistic anti-tumor effect in C57BL/6J mice bearing LLC tumors[1]. 2-Guidinobenzimidazole (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; every other day) can significantly inhibit the growth of B16F10 melanoma in C57BL/6J mice[1]. 2-Guidinobenzimidazole (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; every other day) can activate inflammasomes, inhibit tumor growth, and enhance the anti-tumor immunity of LLC tumor mice in an NLRP3-dependent manner[1].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models:C57BL/6J (8-12 weeks old; subcutaneous injection of 1.5 × 10⁶ LLC cells) [1]
Doses: 20 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; every other day
Experimental Results: IL-1β levels in tumor tissue increased to approximately 2500 pg/mL/100 mg (n=7,8), and IL-18 levels increased to approximately 1500 pg/mL/100 mg (n=6). The proportion of caspase-1+ macrophages in tumors increased to 33.9% (n=6), the proportion of caspase-1+ dendritic cells increased to 32.8% (n=5), and the proportion of caspase-1+ neutrophils increased to 20.7% (n=5). After 30 days of treatment, the LLC tumor volume shrank to approximately 300 mm³ (n=6), and the tumor weight decreased to approximately 0.5 g (n=6). The tumor-infiltrating CD4+ T cell count increased to approximately 15 × 10⁵ (n=7), and the CD8+ T cell count increased to approximately 8 × 10⁵ (n=7). The percentage of IFN-γ+ CD8+ T cells increased to 17.5% (n=7). The migrating dendritic cell (DC) count increased to approximately 6 × 10³ (n=5), and the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of CD40 in DCs in the tumor-draining lymph nodes increased to approximately 1400, and the CD86 MFI increased to approximately 1600 (n=5). When administered alone, the LLC tumor volume shrank to approximately 400 mm³ after 30 days of treatment. When used in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody, the tumor volume further shrank to approximately 200 mm³ after 30 days of treatment (n=5,6), overcoming anti-PD-1 resistance.
Animal/Disease Models:C57BL/6J (8-12 weeks old; subcutaneous injection of 1.5 × 10⁶ B16F10 cells) [1]
Doses: 20 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; every other day
Experimental Results: Significantly inhibited B16F10 tumor growth.
Animal/Disease Models:C57BL/6J (8–12 weeks old, no specific pathogen; wild-type and Nlrp3-/-)[1]
Doses: 20 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; every other day
Experimental Results: In wild-type mice, tumor IL-1β levels increased to approximately 4000 pg/mL/100 mg (n=5), IL-18 levels increased to approximately 1800 pg/mL/100 mg (n=5), and the proportion of caspase-1+ macrophages increased to 26.9% (n=5); these effects disappeared in Nlrp3-/- mice. On day 26, tumor volume decreased to approximately 200 mm3 (n=5) and tumor weight decreased to approximately 0.5 g (n=5) in wild-type mice; such effects were not observed in Nlrp3-/- mice. In wild-type mice, the tumor-infiltrating CD4+ T cell count increased to approximately 25 × 10⁵ (n=5), the CD8+ T cell count increased to approximately 20 × 10⁵ (n=5), and the percentage of IFN-γ+ CD8+ T cells increased to 22.9% (n=5); these effects were not observed in Nlrp3-/- mice.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you canAdd 100 μL of DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix well; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 and mix well; finally add 450 μL of physiological saline and adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of physiological saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in double-distilled water and dilute to 100 mL to obtain clear physiological saline.

*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
