Product Description
Vidofludimus (4sc-101; SC12267) hemicalcium is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) and a farnesoid X receptor (FXR) modulator. Vidofludimus hemicalcium works as an immunomodulator and may be utilized to study autoimmune diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Vidofludimus hemicalcium can also be utilized in the research of fatty liver disease by targeting FXR.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
EC50: 450 nM (FXR)[1] IC50: 160 nM (human DHODH)[3]
ln Vitro
Vidofludimus hemicalcium (0-1 µM) causes the recruitment of several coactivators with LXXLL motifs and selectively activates FXR in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 value of roughly 450 nM [1]. The nuclear translocation of p65 is blocked by inhibiting the IKK-IκB-NF-κB pathway with Vidofludimus hemicalcium (0-8 µM) [1]. With an IC50 value of 160 nM, visdofludimus hemicalcium exhibits inhibitory action against human DHODH[2]. In vitro, dihydroorotate dehydrogenase and lymphocyte proliferation are inhibited by visdofludimus hemicalcium [3]. Vidofludimus hemicalcium, regardless of its impact on lymphocyte proliferation, suppresses the release of interleukin (IL)-17 in vitro [3]. In vitro, IL-23 + IL-1β-stimulated colon strips do not produce any IL-17 secretion when vidofludimus hemicalcium is present [3].
ln Vivo
In vivo colitis produced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) is impacted by vidofludimus hemicalcium (ip; once daily; for 14 days) in a way that is dependent on FXR [1]. Oral Vidofludimus hemicalcium (60 mg/kg) for 6 days significantly improves several TNBS-induced colitis parameters in rats and inhibits colonic STAT3 and IL-17 [3].

Note: Please be aware that the above formulations are for reference only. InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.6638 mL 13.3191 mL 26.6383 mL
5 mM 0.5328 mL 2.6638 mL 5.3277 mL
10 mM 0.2664 mL 1.3319 mL 2.6638 mL

*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
