| Targets |
6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid targets thiol groups in proteins and enzymes. It reacts with thiols to afford a disulfide and 6-mercaptonicotinic acid. It acts as a modulator of oxidative stress and inflammation by influencing redox-sensitive pathways in immune cells. It selectively inhibits the Pi/OH- carrier in rat liver mitochondria.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid acts as a specific thiol blocker. It facilitates the indirect oxidation of glucose 6-phosphate by providing oxidized NADP, which in turn stimulates the hexose monophosphate pathway due to the reoxidation of NADPH. It modifies mitochondrial functions and selectively inhibits the Pi/OH- carrier in rat liver mitochondria.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid has been used to investigate the radioprotective effect of mercaptoethylamine on the thiol level of the outer cell membrane of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells. Its ability to interact with thiols and influence redox reactions makes it a valuable tool for studying cellular metabolism and enzyme functions.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Cell-free assays for 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid: thiol reactivity is assessed by incubating the compound with thiol-containing compounds (e.g., cysteine, glutathione) and measuring the formation of disulfide products by HPLC or spectrophotometry. Mitochondrial function is assessed by measuring oxygen consumption or Pi/OH- carrier activity in isolated mitochondria. NADPH reoxidation is measured spectrophotometrically.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid: Ehrlich ascites tumor cells or other cell lines are treated with 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid at concentrations of 0.1-100 µM for 1-24 hours. Cellular thiol levels are measured using Ellman's reagent. Redox status is assessed by measuring GSH/GSSG ratios. Mitochondrial function is assessed by measuring ATP levels and oxygen consumption. Cell viability is measured by MTT assay.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid: animal models of oxidative stress or radioprotection would be used. Animals are administered 6,6′-Dithiodinicotinic acid intraperitoneally or intravenously at doses of 1-10 mg/kg. Thiol levels in tissues, oxidative stress markers, and mitochondrial function are assessed. Radioprotective effects are evaluated in models of radiation exposure.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.08 mg/mL (6.75 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: 2.08 mg/mL (6.75 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
