Product Description

Terlipressin is a tube-active vasopressin analog and a selective vasopressin V1 receptor agonist (activator) that reduces splanchnic blood flow and portal pressure and controls acute variceal bleeding. Terlipressin has anti~inflammatory and antioxidant effects and may be utilized in study/research of hepatorenal syndrome and norepinephrine-resistant septic shock.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)

Targets	Vasopressin V1 receptor
ln Vitro	Terlipressin (25 nM; 24-72 hours; IEC-6 cells) treatment dramatically increases the viability, proliferation, and apoptosis of IEC-6 cells[1]. Terlipressin prevents IEC-6 cells from secreting TNF-α and 15-F2t-isoprostane after they are subjected to oxygen and glucose deprivation and then reoxygenated. Through the PI3K signaling pathway, terlipressin administration after OGD reduces OGD/R-induced cell damage[1].
ln Vivo	Terlipressin treatment dramatically reduces IR-induced liver apoptosis, necrosis, and inflammation in a mouse model of nonlethal hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR)[3].
Cell Assay	Cell Line: IEC-6 cells induced by oxygen and glucose deprivation/re-oxygenation (OGD/R) Concentration: 25 nM Incubation Time: 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours Result: Significantly increased the proliferation of IEC-6 cells.
