Purity: ≥98%
Veratramine (formerly known as NSC17821 and NSC23880) is a novel, potent and selective natural modulator of AP-1 which is useful as a signal transduction inhibitor for treating tumors. Veratramine is a hypotensive alkaloid isolated from the rhizomes of Veratrum. Veratramine modulates AP-1-dependent gene transcription by directly binding to programmable DNA. Veratramine selectively binds to a specific site (TRE 5'-TGACTCA-3') of the AP-1 target DNA sequence and regulates AP-1-dependent gene transcription without interfering with cystosolic signaling cascades that might lead to AP-1 activation.
ln Vivo |
Total alkaloids (VTA) and veratramine of Veratrum nigrum L. were tested for hypotensive effect using spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Acute toxicities were also evaluated. There was a dose-dependent reduction in blood pressure and heart rate after a single ingestion (1.0 to 4.0 mg/kg, intragastric administration) of VTA. A single oral ingestion (0.56 to 2.24 mg/kg) of veratramine, the major component of VTA, dose-dependently decreased blood pressure and heart rate, suggesting that veratramine was involved in the hypotensive effect of VTA in SHR. The hypotensive effects of VTA and veratramine are directly positively correlated with the dosage. Side effects were not obvious.[1]

Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity Summary
Veratramine produces a characteristic excitatory action on the central nervous system, producing both tremor and a characteristic "struggling" behavior. This behavioral excitation is accompanied by changes in serotonin content in hypothalamus. The central serotonin agonist methysergide in doses of 5--15 mg per kg produces a dose-dependent inhibition of veratramine's action, while parachlorophenylalanine has no effect. (A15440) |

Additional Infomation |
Veratramine is a piperidine alkaloid comprising the 14,15,16,17-tetradehydro derivative of veratraman having two hydroxy groups at the 3- and 23-positions. It derives from a hydride of a veratraman.
Veratramine has been reported in Veratrum dahuricum, Veratrum grandiflorum, and other organisms with data available. Veratramine is a hypotensive alkaloid isolated from the rhizomes of Veratrum. Mechanism of Action THE EFFECTS OF VERATRAMINE ON TRANSMEMBRANE POTENTIALS OF THE ISOLATED RIGHT ATRIAL PREPN OF THE CAT WERE EXAMINED. VERATRAMINE SLOWED THE SPONTANEOUS RATE & PPTD A CHARACTERISTIC RHYTHM CONSISTING OF ALTERNATING PERIODS OF ASYSTOLE & NORMAL ATRIAL RHYTHM (PERIODIC RHYTHM). AFTER LARGE DOSES OR CONTINUED EXPOSURE TO LOW DOSES OF VERATRAMINE, ELECTRICAL & MECHANICAL ACTIVITY OF THE ATRIA CEASED; SUBSEQUENTLY ACTIVITY RESUMED ONLY IN A DISCRETE AREA WITHIN WHICH ACTION POTENTIALS WERE CONSISTENT WITH PACEMAKER CHARACTERISTICS. L-ETHOMOXANE HYDROCHLORIDE CAUSED 1/30TH & BETWEEN 1/10 & 1/20TH OF THE NEGATIVE CHRONOTROPIC EFFECT INDUCED BY VERATRAMINE ON THE DOG HEART-LUNG PREPN & ON THE ISOLATED GUINEA PIG ATRIUM, RESPECTIVELY. |

Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.10 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 25.0 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. View More

*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.
