Product Description
Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), a complex of nitriloacetic acid and iron, is a highly active compound used to induce degenerative diseases through oxidative stress (OS). Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) has also been used in some studies to induce hyperglycemia, glycosuria, and renal and liver cancer.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vivo
Kidney cancer models can be created in animals by using ferric nitrilotriacetate.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Although concentration /NTA/ decrease rapidly with cessation of intake, a small amount was retained in bone after each dose... /Nitrilotriacetic acid/
NTA-(14)C administered orally to rats. 95% was excreted in urine. Less than 1%...as CO2. Absorption of NTA from GI tract varied: dog greater than rat greater than rabbit and monkey. ... Deposited in skeleton. Concentration ... increases with number of doses administered. Most active areas for accumulation are at sites of very active bone formation. /NTA/
After injecting large amount of ferric nitrilotriacetate, complete saturation of transferrins followed. Most excess serum Fe3+-nta existed in association with serum protein rather than as free Fe3+-nta.
In cell, Fe2+ is converted to Fe3+ in ferritin, the latter not being absorbed until cell is physiologically "depleted." In the blood strain, iron could be quickly oxidized by dissolved oxygen to Fe3+, which complexes with specific Fe-transport beta1-globulin.

Additional Infomation
Mechanism of Action
The mechanism of acute nephrotoxicity of an iron chelate in vivo has been investigated. Administration of a renal carcinogen ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) (15 mg Fe/kg bw, ip) led to selective loss of a renal protein with an apparent molecular mass of 17 kDa. Analysis of the 17 kDa protein by NH2-terminal sequence demonstrated its identity over 16 NH2-terminal residues as a kidney fatty acid-binding protein (k-FABP) that is a proteolytically modified form of alpha 2U-globulin, a major urinary protein of adult male rats. An immunochemical study using anti-alpha 2U-globulin polyclonal antibodies confirmed that a single injection of Fe-NTA led to a decrease in k-FABP levels. However, a 19-kDa protein identical to the alpha 2U-globulin progressively appeared in the kidney, suggesting that the proteolytic processing of alpha 2U-globulin in the renal proximal tubules was suppressed by the treatment with Fe-NTA. By monitoring k-FABP and its precursor alpha 2U-globulin, it was determined that repeated exposure to Fe-NTA caused suppression of both proteolytic and endocytotic activity of the kidney.
Therapeutic Uses
EXPTL USE: Amount exceeding 100 ppm extra dietary iron as ferric nitrilotriacetate produced highly significant increase in survival among chicks infected with Salmonella gallinarum strain 9.
EXPTL USE: Suitable application of iron complexes with nitrilotriacetate should be efficacious in treatment of iron deficiency anemia.

*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.

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)
