Product Description
Oxolamine citrate (SKF-9976 citrate) is a cough suppressant utilized in the research of respiratory diseases. Oxolamine citrate also displays anti-inflammatory effects.
Oxolamine citrate (CAS 1949-20-8), also known as SKF-9976 citrate or AF-438 citrate, is a synthetic cough suppressant derived from 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazole. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder with a molecular weight of 437.44 g/mol and a melting point of 141-142°C. Oxolamine citrate is a medication used to treat coughs and colds, and it also exhibits anti-inflammatory effects. The compound is soluble in water and ethanol and is involved in pharmacological studies including anti-inflammatory agents and drugs that shift energy metabolism from mitochondrial respiration to glycolysis. For research use only, it is not intended for human therapeutic use.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Oxolamine citrate acts as a histamine H1 receptor antagonist, contributing to its antitussive and antihistamine properties. It is also an inhibitor of CYP2B1/2, a cytochrome P450 enzyme involved in drug metabolism. The compound's mechanism involves shifting energy metabolism from mitochondrial respiration to glycolysis, and it has been shown to affect warfarin anticoagulant properties. Additionally, oxolamine citrate inhibits the conversion of podophyllotoxin to epipodophyllotoxin. Its primary pharmacological targets are the histamine H1 receptor and the drug-metabolizing enzyme CYP2B1/2.
ln Vitro
In vitro, oxolamine citrate exhibits anti-inflammatory activity. As a CYP2B1/2 inhibitor, it can modulate the metabolism of other drugs that are substrates of this enzyme. The compound's antitussive effects are mediated through its action as a histamine H1 receptor antagonist. It has been studied for its ability to shift energy metabolism from mitochondrial respiration to glycolysis. Specific IC₅₀ values for its in vitro activities have not been widely reported in the available literature, but its pharmacological profile as a cough suppressant and anti-inflammatory agent is well established.
ln Vivo
In vivo, oxolamine citrate functions as an effective cough suppressant, used in the treatment of respiratory tract diseases. It has been demonstrated to have anti-inflammatory activity in preclinical models. The compound's antitussive effects are clinically relevant for managing cough associated with colds and other respiratory conditions. Detailed in vivo efficacy data, including specific animal model studies, are limited in the publicly available literature, but its clinical use as a cough suppressant supports its in vivo activity.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cellular assays for oxolamine citrate would typically involve enzyme inhibition studies, particularly focusing on its activity as a CYP2B1/2 inhibitor. These assays measure the compound's ability to inhibit the enzymatic activity of CYP2B1/2 using specific substrates and detecting metabolite formation via HPLC or mass spectrometry. Histamine H1 receptor binding affinity can be assessed using radioligand binding assays with membrane preparations expressing the receptor, measuring the displacement of a labeled antagonist to determine binding affinity (Ki) and receptor occupancy.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays for oxolamine citrate may include studies evaluating its anti-inflammatory effects in immune cells, such as measuring cytokine production in stimulated macrophages or evaluating its impact on glycolysis versus mitochondrial respiration in cancer cell lines. The compound's effect on warfarin anticoagulant properties could be studied in hepatocyte cultures to assess its impact on drug metabolism pathways. Cytotoxicity and cell viability assays may also be performed to evaluate its safety profile in various cell types, though specific protocols are not widely documented in the available literature.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal models for oxolamine citrate would typically involve cough models in guinea pigs or other species to evaluate its antitussive efficacy. Anti-inflammatory activity could be assessed in standard models such as carrageenan-induced paw edema in rats or other inflammation models. Pharmacokinetic and toxicity studies in rodents would be conducted to evaluate absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and safety profile. However, specific detailed protocols for these studies are not extensively documented in publicly available sources, as oxolamine citrate is a known pharmaceutical compound rather than a novel research chemical.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for oxolamine citrate are limited in the available literature. As a small molecule with a molecular weight of 437.44 g/mol, it is expected to be well absorbed following oral administration. The compound is soluble in water and ethanol, which would facilitate gastrointestinal absorption. It is metabolized in part by cytochrome P450 enzymes, particularly CYP2B1/2, which it also inhibits. The compound's distribution, half-life, and elimination pathways have not been extensively characterized in publicly available sources.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Oxolamine citrate is generally well-tolerated at therapeutic doses. As a medication used for coughs and colds, its safety profile has been established through clinical use. Specific toxicity data, including LD₅₀ values and detailed toxicological studies, are not widely reported in the available literature. Like many pharmaceuticals, it may cause side effects in some individuals, though these are not extensively documented in the search results. For research use, standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound.

  • 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)
