Product Description
YS-49 (monohydrate) is an activator of PI3K/Akt (a downstream target of RhoA) and reduces RhoA/PTEN activation in 3-methylcholine-treated cells. YS-49 can inhibit angiotensin II (Ang II)-stimulated VSMC cell proliferation/growth by inducing heme oxygenase (HO-1). YS-49 is an isoquinoline compound alkaloid that has strong positive inotropic effects due to its ability to activate cardiac β-adrenoceptors.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
PI3K/Akt[3]
ln Vitro
In both RAVSMC and RAW 264.7 cells exposed to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) plus INF-γ, YS-49 (1–100 μM; 18 hours) concentration-dependently reduces the buildup of nitrite, with IC50 values of 22 μM and 30 μM, respectively[2]. In RAVSMC and RAW 264.7 cells, YS-49 (10–100 μM; 18 hours) inhibits the transcriptional level of the iNOS gene expression that is triggered by LPS and/or cytokines[2].
ln Vivo
Treatment with YS-49 (5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; 8 hours; male Sprague Dawley rats) dramatically lowers blood NOx levels in animals treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS); NOx levels drop from 86 μM to 34 μM[2].

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 2.4734 mL 12.3671 mL 24.7341 mL
5 mM 0.4947 mL 2.4734 mL 4.9468 mL
10 mM 0.2473 mL 1.2367 mL 2.4734 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
