Product Description
Mesna (Sodium 2-mercaptoethanesulfonate) is an antioxidant with cytoprotective effects. Mesna is extensively used as a systemic protectant against chemotherapy toxicity. Mesna is also used to relieve hemorrhagic cystitis caused by cyclophosphamide.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In dose illumination concentrations, mesna (1-1000 μM) decreases H2O2, HOCl, and OH; in experiments without cells, the corresponding IC50 values were 32, 21, and 305 μM.
ln Vivo
Mesna (single intraperitoneal; 150 mg/kg) guards against brain stent injuries [1]. Mesna (200 mg/kg; single ip) reverses the glenoid function deficit caused by cisplatin [2]. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) was induced in adult male Wistar Albino rats weighing 250–350 g. The dose was 150 mg/kg, and the administration method was a single intraperitoneal injection. The results showed a decrease in tissue malondialdehyde levels. enhances superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities. lowers nitric oxide, xanthine oxidase, and nitric oxide synthase levels. effectively shields brain cells from harm.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Adult male Wistar Albino rats (250-350 g) sustained traumatic brain injury (TBI) [1]
Doses: 150 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Single intraperitoneal (ip) injection
Experimental Results: diminished tissue malondialdehyde levels. Increases the activity of glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase. Reduces levels of nitric oxide, nitric oxide synthase, and xanthine oxidase. Protects brain tissue well from damage.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation
No information is available on the clinical use of mesna during breastfeeding. Because it is used with toxic drugs such as ifosfamide, the manufacturer recommends to not breastfeed during treatment and for 1 week after the last dose of mesna or ifosfamide.
◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants
Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date.
◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk
Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date.

Additional Infomation
Mesna is an organosulfonic acid.
Mesna is a sulfhydryl compound that is used to reduce the incidence of hemorrhagic cystitis associated with certain chemotherapeutic agents. Mesna is converted to a free thiol compound in the kidney, where it binds to and inactivates acrolein and other urotoxic metabolites of ifosfamide and cyclophosphamide, thereby reducing their toxic effects on the urinary tract during urinary excretion. (NCI04)
A sulfhydryl compound used to prevent urothelial toxicity by inactivating metabolites from ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENTS, such as IFOSFAMIDE or CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~250 mg/mL (~1522.72 mM)

Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 100 mg/mL (609.09 mM) in PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with sonication.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg

5 mM 1.2182 mL 6.0909 mL 12.1818 mL
10 mM 0.6091 mL 3.0454 mL 6.0909 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
