Purity: ≥98%
Triamterene (formerly SKF-8542; SKF8542; BRN-0266723; Dyrenium; Diucelpin; Diurene) is a diuretic commonly used in combination with thiazide diuretics (e.g. hydrochlorothiazide/triamterene) for the treatment of high blood pressure or swelling. Triamterene has potassium sparing properties, and also blocks Na+ channel (ENaC) in a voltage-dependent manner with an IC50 of 4.5 μM.
ln Vitro |
Triamterene is cytotoxic to HCT116 and CT26 cells, with IC50 values of 31.30 and 24.45 μM [5]. Triamterene (100 and 200 µM, 2 hours) promotes lysosomal rupture, lowers lysosomal integrity, and triggers lysis in HepG2 cells [6]. Triamterene (10-100 µM) suppresses delayed rectifier potassium currents in guinea pig ventricular myocytes [7].

ln Vivo |
In addition to intravenous pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) (0.5%, 1 mL/min), intraperitoneal PTZ (85 mg/kg), and maximal shock seizures (shown anticonvulsant efficacy in a rat model of MES)-induced convulsions, trimeterene (10–40 mg/kg/day PO, 5 days) is administered [3]. In awake saline rats, triamterene (25 mg/kg) lowers urine magnesium excretion [4].

*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.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
