Product Description

Ramipril (HOE-498; Altace; Carasel; Ramace; Zabien; Tritace; Ramace; Triatec; Tritace; Vesdil) is a potent angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor with anti-hypertensive effects. It inhibits ACE with an IC50 of 5 nM and has been approved for hypertension treatment. Ramipril is a produg that has to be activated by hydrolysis to the active metabolite Ramiprilat. Studies indicate that Ramipril is a more potent inhibitor in comparison to Zofenopril (sc-208496). Acute coronary syndrome investigations demonstrate that Ramipril increases IL-10, and decreases the levels of MCP-1 and IL-18.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor ramipril (HOE-498) has an IC50 of 5 nM[1]. However, in endothelial cells expressing an S1270A ACE mutant or in ACE-deficient cells, ramipril (HOE-498) is unable to activate JNK or boost the nuclear accumulation of c-Jun. Instead, it increases the activity of ACE-associated CK2 and the phosphorylation of ACE Ser1270 in cultured endothelial cells. Long-term Ramipril use raises ACE expression in mouse lung in vivo and primary cultures of human endothelial cells, a phenomenon that can be avoided by pretreating with the JNK inhibitor SP600125[2].
ln Vivo
In contrast to the apoptosis effect in vitro, chronic in vivo administration of Ramipril (HOE-498) to rats at a dosage that has similar hypotensive effects in vitro HUVECs considerably lowers the rate of LPS-induced apoptosis relative to the other ACE inhibitors[3 [4].
Animal Protocol
Dissolved in distilled water by using gum arabic (10% w/v); 0.03-10 mg/kg; Oral gavage
Male spontaneously hypertensive rats

DMSO:83 mg/mL (199.3 mM)
Water:<1 mg/mL
Ethanol:83 mg/mL (199.3 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 3.25 mg/mL (7.80 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 32.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL of 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: ≥ 3.25 mg/mL (7.80 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 32.5 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.

*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
