Product Description

Stiripentol (formerly known as BCX-2600; BCX2600; STP; trade name: Diacomit) is an FDA-approved anticonvulsant drug that inhibits the activity of several cytochromes P450 (P450s). Stiripentol inhibits N-demethylation of CLB to NCLB mediatated by CYP3A4 (noncompetitively) and CYP2C19 (competitively) with Ki of 1.59±0.07 and 0.516±0.065 μM and IC50 of 1.58 and 3.29 μM, respectively. In August 2018, FDA approved Stiripentol to treat seizures associated with Dravet syndrome in patients 2 years of age and older taking clobazam.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Stiripentol (STP) is an anticonvulsant drug that can block CYP3A4's (noncompetitively) and CYP2C19's (competitively) N-demethylation of CLB to N-desmethylclobazam (NCLB). The best models to explain the inhibition of CLB demethylation by Stiripentol (STP) are the competitive inhibition model with Ki=0.52 μM for the cDNA-expressing CYP2C19 and the noncompetitive inhibition model with apparent Ki=1.6 μM for the cDNA-expressing CYP3A4. Stiripentol (STP) has a Ki=0.14 μM and competitively inhibits the formation of OH-NCLB from NCLB by cDNA-expressing CYP2C19[1].
ln Vivo
The difference in temperature between BT1 (39.67±1.09°C) and BT2 (41.32±1.05°C) in mice receiving Stiripentol (STP) monotherapy reaches statistical significance (t=3.097, p<0.05). Between Stiripentol (STP) monotherapy and CLB monotherapy, there is a statistically significant difference in BT2 (t=2.615, p<0.05). The difference between BT1 (40.18±0.58°C) and BT2 (43.03±0.49°C) in mice receiving Stiripentol (STP)+CLB combination therapy reaches statistical significance (t=10.44, p<0.01)[2].

Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.88 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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.88 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 20.8 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.

Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.88 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

5 mM 0.8536 mL 4.2682 mL 8.5364 mL
10 mM 0.4268 mL 2.1341 mL 4.2682 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
