Product Description
Tegaserod is an orally bioavailable serotonin receptor 4 (HTR4; 5-HT4R) agonist and 5-HT2B receptor antagonist. The pKis of Tegaserod for human recombinant 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B and 5-HT2C receptors are 7.5, 8.4 and 7.0 respectively. Tegaserod causes tumor cell apoptosis, attenuates PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling and reduces S6 phosphorylation. Tegaserod has anti-tumor activity and potential for use in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) research.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
5-HT4 Receptor
ln Vitro
Tegaserod (3-5 μM; 24-72 hours) significantly increases apoptosis in a time- and dose-dependent manner [1]. Tegaserod lowers p-S6 and p-p70 S6 (Thr421/Ser424)[1] at 3-5 μM over 8–18 hours. According to 5-HT2B receptor antagonist activity, tegaserod (0.1-3 μM; 24 hours) efficiently suppresses 5-HT-mediated contraction of the rat gastric fundus in vitro (pA2=8.3) [3].
ln Vivo
Tegaserod (5 mg/kg/day; intraperitoneal injection; five days in a row) inhibits p-S6 in vivo, decreases metastasis, and delays the formation of tumors [1]. Tegaserod (0.1-2.0 mg/kg; i.p. 15 min before gastric loading) dramatically increases the rate at which gastric glucose is emptied from the stomach in db/db mice and maintains it at 0.1 mg/kg for 30 minutes. This results in an 80% reduction in the amount of food consumed[2].
Cell Assay
Apoptosis Analysis[1]
Cell Types: A375, RPMI-7951 (RPMI), SH4, B16F10, MeWo and MEL-JUSO
Tested Concentrations: 3, 5 μM
Incubation Duration: 24, 48, 72 h
Experimental Results: There was a significant time and dose-dependent increase in apoptosis in all cell lines.

Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: RPMI, SH4 and B16F10 cells
Tested Concentrations: 3, 5 μM
Incubation Duration: 8 or 18 h
Experimental Results: diminished phosphorylation of the kinase directly upstream of S6, p70 S6 at Thr421/Ser424.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: C57BL/6 J mice were subcutaneously (sc) injected with B16F10 cells[1]
Doses: 5 mg/ kg
Route of Administration: Administered intraperitoneally (ip) (ip) daily for five days
Experimental Results: Treatment Dramatically diminished tumor growth and resulted in only slight decreases in weight following treatment.

Animal/Disease Models: Female C57BLKS/J db/db mice[2]
Doses: 0.1, 0.5 , 1.0, 2.0 mg/kg
Route of Administration: IP 15 min prior to gastric loading
Experimental Results: Produced a dramatic decrease in the fraction of the meal remaining in the stomach for doses as low as 0.1 mg/kg (0.1 mg/kg). Accelerated gastric emptying, with a reduction of nearly 80% in the fraction remaining at 30 min (P < 0.0001) (0.1 mg/kg). Induced a significant decrease in the gastric emptying rate as the amount of the meal remaining at 30 min was Dramatically greater (2.0 mg/kg). Resulted in inhibition of tegaserod-induced increased gastric emptying (0.1 mg/kg).

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~50 mg/mL (~165.90 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 5 mg/mL (16.59 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 50.0 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.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 50.0 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.

*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
