Product Description
U-11634 is an orally potent, non-competitive dopamine β-hydroxylase inhibitor. The subcutaneous LD50 in rats is 1197 mg/kg, and the oral LD50 is 524 mg/kg. U-11634 blocks the conversion of dopamine to norepinephrine and reduces norepinephrine levels in the brain. Dietary supplementation with U-11634 reduces food intake and spontaneous motor activity. U-11634 can induce thyroid toxicity and inhibit pregnancy. U-11634 inhibits decidual tumor formation in intact rats and steroid-treated rats, and its effects are not reversed by progesterone or estradiol. U-11634 can be used during pregnancy.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
U-11634 (compound 12) (1×10-4 M) showed moderate inhibition of purified bovine adrenal dopamine β-hydroxylase in vitro, reducing enzyme activity to 52% of the control level through non-competitive inhibition [1].
ln Vivo
U-11634 (compound 12) (200 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; single dose) reduced norepinephrine levels in the rat brain to 82% of the control group 4 hours after a single intraperitoneal injection of 200 mg/kg and to 72% of the control group 16 hours after a single injection [1]. U-11634 (616 mg/kg/24 h; oral; single dose, lasting 24 hours) reduced spontaneous kinetic activity in mice to 67% of the control group [1]. U-11634 (5–10 mg/day; subcutaneous injection; once daily; lasting 20 days) did not alter vaginal cytology, weight gain, mating interval after treatment, or birth outcomes in periodically mature female Sprague-Dawley rats [2]. U-11634 (5-10 mg/day; subcutaneous injection; once daily; administered on days 4, 5, and 6 of pseudopregnancy) did not significantly alter the time interval from the onset of pseudopregnancy to the appearance of estrus-like smears after the first treatment in Sprague-Dawley rats [2]. Oral administration of U-11634 (25 mg; orally; single dose) to female Sprague-Dawley rats resulted in rapid absorption, with a peak serum concentration of 13.3 μg/mL (based on 100 mg/kg) after 2 hours and a stable serum concentration that remained for up to 24 hours [3]. Oral administration of U-11634 (200 mg/kg; orally; single dose) to male cynomolgus monkeys resulted in slower absorption, with peak serum concentrations of 33.0 μg/mL and 49.4 μg/mL in the two animals after 12 hours, respectively, and slow metabolism/excretion over 24 hours [3]. U-11634 (0.25–10 mg; subcutaneous injection; once daily from proestrus to day 6; single dose on days 2, 4, 6, 12, or 16; once daily from day 1 to day 3; once daily from day 3 to day 6) completely suppressed pregnancy in Sprague-Dawley rats before implantation and no fetal toxicity was observed at therapeutic doses[4]. U-11634 (3–12 mg/rat; feed; mean daily intake from proestrus to day 6) completely suppressed pregnancy in Sprague-Dawley rats before implantation and no fetal toxicity was observed at therapeutic doses[4]. U-11634 (1.0–5.0 mg/rat; oral administration; once daily for 7 or 13 days from proestrus) completely suppressed pregnancy in Sprague-Dawley rats before early implantation and no fetal toxicity was observed at therapeutic doses[4]. U-11634 (1.0–5.0 mg; subcutaneous injection; once daily for 8 days) inhibited pregnancy in Swiss-Webster mice[4]. U-11634 (0.25 mg/mouse; oral administration; once daily for 8 days) significantly inhibited pregnancy in Swiss-Webster mice[4]. U-11634 (0.05–6.4 mg/rat; subcutaneous injection; once daily for 10 days) did not show gonadotropin-suppressing activity in immature male Sprague-Dawley rats at antifertility doses, with only slight effects on reproductive tissues observed at four times the therapeutic dose[4]. U-11634 (0.05–2.0 mg; oral administration; once daily for 10 days) did not show uterine growth-promoting or anti-estrogenic activity in bilaterally ovariectomized immature Sprague-Dawley rats at oral doses up to 2.0 mg/rat per day[4]. U-11634 (0.5–8.0 mg/rat; orally; once daily for 10 days) did not exhibit androgenic activity in castrated immature male Sprague-Dawley rats at daily oral doses up to 8.0 mg/rat [4]. U-11634 (10 mg/rat; orally; once daily from day 5 to day 8) inhibited decidual tumor formation in fully ovariectomized and hormone-treated pseudopregnant Sprague-Dawley rats, suggesting that interference with uterine decidualization is its mechanism of pregnancy suppression [4]. U-11634 (12.5–50 mg/kg; orally; once daily from day 9 to day 15 of gestation) at daily oral doses up to 50 mg/kg during mid-gestation did not cause significant fetal toxicity, death, or developmental abnormalities in pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats [4].

  • 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)
